Music reviews of I Got Your Country Right Here
Music Review: What happened here?
Rating: 2 Stars
Is it just me or has Gretchen Wilson kind of been reduced to a gimmicky stereotype? I mean, when she released `Redneck Woman' back in 2004 I was floored. I still love that song. Sadly, it appears that she can't let that song go. Instead, she seems to hold onto its premise and so a lot of her songs seem rather regurgitated. Granted, I have not heard every song she has released. In fact, I kind of thought she had disappeared until I saw this album for sale the other day. I had heard nothing from her or about her and than WAM, here she is. Listening to `I've Got Your Country Right Here' kind of seems like a dissected version of `Redneck Woman'.
Yes, I know that you love good ol' southern rock and that you play in the dirt and drink beer and live in a trailer park and buy everything you own at Walmart, but seriously...can you sing about anything else?
Sadly, not only has her lyrical content run dry, but her songs themselves have become very dated and very old fashioned. There is no edge to them. The pacing is off putting. Even the Honky-Tonk jams like `Work Hard, Play Harder' wind up feeling rather dull. There is no `oomph' in any of these songs. `The Earrings Song' is a trashy disaster, lacking any and all charm or needed energy. Gretchen comes off feeling tired and lazy in a lot of these songs. They are bland and dry.
The first half of the album is extremely disappointing.
Thankfully, for a small stretch, the second half of the album seems to pick up. `Walk on Water', `Love on the Line' and `As Far As You Know' are all pretty good, slightly redeemable songs. She elevates her southern influences with some nice vocal work and she actually edges out these songs with some catchy chorus lines and a nice pick up musically.
The only song here that is great is `I'd Love to Be Your Last'. It is a beautiful song that is tender and passionate and stirring. I could listen to Gretchen smolder all over that track for hours.
But that's really all this album has to offer.
I love Lynyrd Skynyrd as much as the next guy, but Gretchen's homage to their greatness comes off rather forced. She just doesn't have what it takes to last. She has become nothing more than a one-hit-wonder really. `Redneck Woman' is still a great song, but it is apparent she is desperately chasing after that one moment, and I don't see it resurfacing for her.
