Music review: Darius Rucker 无毛视频� 无毛视频榃hen Was the Last Time无毛视频�
As part of Hootie & the Blowfish, Darius Rucker will always bring to mind the wonderful memories of the day I married my wife. After the ceremony and reception, a friend had loaned us his Cadillac to use during our honeymoon.
Having a CD player in your vehicle back then was a big deal, so we scurried around in search of music to accompany us on our celebratory drive. 无毛视频淐racked Rear View无毛视频� had just been released a few months earlier and we quickly agreed on having it serve as our unofficial soundtrack to help usher in our new life together.
While my marriage is stronger than ever, Hootie & the Blowfish would later disband with Rucker lending his smooth baritone voice to the world of country music.
For his fifth country release, the former Hootie & the Blowfish frontman firmly secures his transition from mainstream pop-rock singer to country superstar.
无毛视频淲hen Was the Last Time无毛视频� is the South Carolina native无毛视频檚 finest effort fueled by heartfelt arrangements that detail passionate stories about life, love and simply enjoying those heaven-on-earth moments.
无毛视频淟ife无毛视频檚 Too Short无毛视频� is an infectious track that best sums up the easygoing mood of the album with Rucker comfortably announcing, 无毛视频淚 don无毛视频檛 like this living, I love it/Sweet magnolia blue skies up above it/I don无毛视频檛 call Carolina just a place I visit/I call Carolina home/I don无毛视频檛 like drinking beer, I love it/On the back porch swinging with my honey/Life无毛视频檚 too short just to like it so you better get to loving/This living before it无毛视频檚 gone/Life无毛视频檚 too short.无毛视频�
Well said for sure.
The title track supports the same carefree sentiment through the encouragement of soaking in the excitement of trying something for the first time.
The good times continue with 无毛视频淪traight to Hell,无毛视频� 无毛视频淐ount the Beers无毛视频� and 无毛视频淪tory to Tell.无毛视频� On the former number, Rucker invites fellow country brothers Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan and Charles Kelley to help deliver a rowdy cover of the Drivin无毛视频� N无毛视频� Cryin无毛视频� song from 1989.
无毛视频淚f I Told You无毛视频� is the album无毛视频檚 moving first single that features Rucker singing about a man seeking unconditional love by openly confessing his failures and faults to the woman who holds his full attention.
Other highlights include the clever 无毛视频淭wenty Something,无毛视频� the steamy 无毛视频淗ands On Me无毛视频� and the charming 无毛视频淏ring It On.无毛视频�
Whether it is with Hootie or solo, Rucker has always had a knack for making people feel at ease with the songs he sings.
When was the last time you did something for the first time? Rucker is just daring you to follow that feeling.
