About this deal

This amount includes seller specified domestic postage charges as well as applicable international postage, dispatch, and other fees.

we are now hearing lyrics from a recovering alcoholic about ‘taking shots with the night owls’, partying in Cali, and ‘maniacs in the bed’ matched with overproduction effectively squandering the talent of a world class musician.

The sheer dexterity it displays in this pursuit would be commendable itself if it weren’t so confusing and busy, with no respect for space, while refusing to deliver anything even resembling a cohesive style. He’s had a long career and could totally live on his past hits but he’s putting out these godawful songs.

Sure, the baseline for his career was never incredibly country in the first place, but what we’re seeing here is an abomination of the country genre, and an embarrassment for Urban himself. I am loving the new Album, in the last 6-8 months I found Keith Urban's music and now have 3 Albums he has captured my interest back in music, Thank you Keith Urban. I have always loved that word, loved the sound of the word, and have loved that it's art-driven," he said.I say “almost” because, with the passing years, I am having less and less difficulty ignoring his output. But despite his far-flung sound collision, Urban is still at his best when staying firmly within his wheelhouse, delivering several undeniable hits on the soul-leaning arena ballad “Parallel Line” and the party-starting country rave “Never Comin Down. VG/EX means that the item's sleeve is in Very Good condition and the disc is in Excellent condition. Not all Africans are blacks, nor their ancestors, and they are not all Americans,talking about any of the 35 countries that do make the American continents as a whole, sole and unique America. Urban added that "graffiti is free and pure, and very personal" and said, "I thought that this record feels like that to me.

Adam ……you realize that in these spineless , anything goes , all’s fair , the dollar- is- all -that- matters times we live in that you have possible just written the best compliment a caring music community could be given ? He is an incredibly original and gifted artist pushing the envelope on many fronts and I respect that . And, for all I know, he could be, but — per Derek’s comment above — he is doing more damage to the genre than anyone, thanks to his influence after decades as a country music celebrity.

I’m surprised you review this album without “WARNING: HEAVY LANGUAGE” or ranting and completely going off on Keith Urban. Urban , on the other hand , is a Peter Pan rock wannabe who hasn’t had an original sound or song idea in years and makes no effort whatsoever to GROW UP and BE AN ARTIST . Each of the album’s three advance singles (‘Female’, ‘Parallel Line’ and ‘Coming Home’) has so far failed to reach the top ten of the Billboard country chart; to put this into context, prior to 'Female' the last Urban single to miss out on the top ten was ‘It’s a Love Thing’, released way back in 1999. The lyric for much contemporary fare has thin to no narrative and tells us nothing about country or very much HUMAN experience beyond drinking and hooking up ( Urban , Hunt , Bryan and many others ).

We are only hoping that clear, open-minded folks understand our concerns about protecting the possible demise of a genre of music we and much of the world absolutely love . Hence why his last couple of his albums have become up straight up pop, with “Graffiti U” being the most stark example. Even his ballads, which I think he normally excels at…just aren’t sparse enough to be effective here.You’d be wise to use the term “country singer” loosely to describe Keith Urban, and even more wise to cut out the “male” part.
