Summary: Currington
Comment: I've used amazon.com a couple of times & it has always been an awesome experience. Easy to use, Delivery on time, Great Products!!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good effort, but not comparable to the first 2
Comment: This album is not as strong as the previous 2, with only a handful of songs that you can remember after the first listen. "Don't" is the strongest track and is one of only a few songs that showcased Billy's vocal range and versatility - perhaps he took it easy on his vocal chords considering he recently just came back from something so career-threatening.. Another strong cut is "People Are Crazy" - a story about a man who inherited the wealth of a stranger, an old man, who he had one conversation with over beer - "God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy".
One song that I find too "forced" is "Life, Love and the Meaning Of". I thought the song had no direction and was, as they say, all over the place.
Overall, it's a good enough effort but he would probably not get more than 2 hits out of this.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great like his other 2..........
Comment: This CD is great just like his other 2. I had bought his 1st CD because of just 1 song, but after listening to the whole cd, I love all the songs. Then I purchased the 2nd cd, and again all the songs are great. Now, the 3rd is the same. Can't wait for Billy's 4th to come out.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not impressed....
Comment: I honestly had big hopes for this cd, and it doesn't deliver...sad but true. The songs are very pop-country, and doesn't stick in your mind after hearing them. There are some good songs, but all in all the cd is slow and a little anonymous. Why can't we get some real country from these guys???
Customer Rating:
Summary: Major Talent....Unleashed
Comment: Billy Currington should become a household name with the release of his third cd. The thing that is so refreshing about Currington is that he is not afraid to take risks, often risks that could be career breaking. But he uses those great sultry chops of his and gives us "eclectic Billy"and it all works! Unlike Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, and Rodney Atkins who give us predictable, bland, 2 note range country, Currington actually uses his voice, its range, power and timing with a fine variety of songs, radio friendly pop/country, but each unique.
There are a bunch of tunes that are the top of the lines. The first cd cut is called 'Swimmin in Sunshine" that must be pulled as a summer single. It is the best summer, upbeat song to come along in years. This should be a smash..infectious and sassy. "Every Reason Not to Go" shows Billy in familiar country territory that he handles so well. "People are Crazy" has a traditional country George Strait sound to it. And
"Everything" the sort of reggae,country, is the absolute best thing on the cd. This song is just so damn good. This and "Swimmin" are the monster cuts. "Walk On" takes on a bluesy Beatleseque feel, and "Heal Me" is the most challenging vocally for Billy. He does a great job.
Truly, there is not a miss on the album, but there is one weak cut," Life, Love and the Meaning of It" which is just a poorly written song. But even that is far better than most of the pablum you hear on fm country today.
Billy Currington is new country and he does it well. You can tell that this guy loves to sing, because his phrasing, range, and style reveal that so honestly.

Billy Currington's third album, Little Bit of Everything, will be released on Oct. 14 by Mercury Nashville. Currington co-produced the album with Carson Chamberlain and co-wrote five of the 12 songs. "People kept asking what kind of music they'd hear on this next album, whether it was going to be R&B, pop, country or rock, and I seemed to keep saying the same thing," said Currington. "It's going to be a little bit of everything, I guess." Currington has topped the country singles chart with "Good Directions" and "Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right."
