STILL FEELS GOOD

Country? Pop?? What are you, Rascal Flatts? FINALLY, my favorite COUNTRY band, came out with a new CD two weeks ago. But fans, and non-fans are confused: Are the boys playing country or pop music?

In my opinion, they plays country music. I can understand why some may think that there is a pop vibe to it, but it is truly country. If you simply listen to one song, you will hear lyrics relating to the countryside and sunsets and "sitting on porches." I don't think pop music would have lyrics such as these.

Among my favorite songs is one entitled "Here's to You," on their "Feels Like Today" album. The band chose to devote a song to their fans, and they describe how the fans camp out the night before the release of their tickets, and go crazy at their shows, which makes what they do so much fun for them.

The new album is going to need time with me. I am in love with and addicted to every other Rascal Flatts album, and this one hasn't drawn me in too much so far. I'm sure that over time I will be loving it as well. Along with a new album means a new tour, which is exciting news for me. After going to two of the most amazing concerts in my life, I am sure that they will pull through with the Still Feels Good Tour. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK BOYS!
