Stand Out Songs & Same Sounding Somgs: Overall Good Though
4
By Corey Swan
This album has its fair share of really good songs, and really bad songs that sound repetitive.
On the Other Line: A awesome twist song that was included about fishing on the lake and telling his wife they’ll go on that date, it’s catchy, it’s fun, an a good lake vibe song
Middle of Somewhere: I feel in love with this song from the beginning, the ballads, the guitar playing, an the slow sounding acoustic feel to it throughout most of the song makes it relatable to those who live in a small town who don’t have much to offer to outsiders but those things to them are genuine
Going, Going, Gone: Fell in love with this song too, it’s basically a bunch of similes about growing up relating to his past love with someone, and talking about how life changes so fast, and what u thought was good back in the day is now gone in an instant. Great lyric writing, an great message delivery for all young country listeners
Doin’ This: This song is his absolute gem in the album, truly shows Luke’s character about how he doesn’t do the music for the fame, glory, or money, he does it cause he loves to do it. I love the message it sends and by far one of his best works to date!
Overall the album is good, solid 4, but songs like Use to Wish I Was, and Better Back When, even Outrunnin’ Your Memory with Miranda Lambert are flops to me, first two are counter acting one another and jus sound too much like Doin’ This which is perfect the way it is, and Outrunnin’ Your Memory is jus a huge slap in the face to Blake’s old relationship with Miranda, jus don’t like it. As far as Tomorrow Me an The Kind of Love We Make, solid 3-4’s, but not songs that really impressed me to much, still would listen again thou.
Last thing: a reviewer said he hated country music an doesn’t like listening to it, my question is why did u waste time writing a review if u hate country music? Sounds stupid to me! Haters gonna hate, an some are jus downright rude and cruel, that guy needs to get a life an stop giving one star reviews on music albums he don’t even like, jus saying bub 🤷🏻♂️
