 Great album from Sheryl! Aug 22, 2008
Sheryl Crow has come a long way since her debut in the 90's "Tuesday Night Musical Club." Granted her style may have changed a bit, but I think it's for the better. My favorite song on the album is "Love Is Free." I love the message and its video. If you're a long time fan of Sheryl Crow you'll enjoy this. If you're just a fan of her radio hits and not a die hard fan you may be dissapointed. If you're open about new styles of music I think you'll enjoy it like me. The songs are well-written and good quality. I only expect the best from Sheryl Crow. She even goes in political and personal songs on this album. I just happen to agree with her politics. Even if you disagree the music still sounds good, you have to admit. Overall I would definately reccomend Sheryl Crow's most recent album "Detours"!
Songs that get stuck in your head... Aug 20, 2008
"Detours" exceeded my expectations. Sheryl Crow still has an amazing edge, and this album proves that she remains one of the best songwriters in popular music today. In this age of iTunes and single-song downloads, I'm glad I bought the entire album, because every one of these songs deserves a chance to be heard.
The first track is intentionally simple and it sets you up beautifully for the heavy-handed "Shine Over Babylon", one of my favorite tracks, and one that is trademark Sheryl Crow material. Other favorites include "Motivation", "Drunk with the Thought of You", "Out of Our Heads" and the title track, "Detours". All very solid works, and all of them are stuck in my head as I write this review. The other tracks, while not quite as appealing to me, are still very good and showcase SC's versatility.

 Hate it. Aug 12, 2008
I'd give it half a star if I could. Total waste of money on my part.
Give it a chance Aug 04, 2008
It is a good album. Give it a chance. I agree that it is political, and has many different styles, and that it is not her best, BUT since when do we fault people for honesty or uniquity (not sure on the spelling of that one). No one complains if people write a sappy but true love song, so why not a song about the current affairs of our world in an honest fashion.
I say there is more Sheryl in this album than there has been in a long time so be grateful for it...
 Her worst CD with one of the best songs she has written Aug 04, 2008
Now that you gone is the best song that she has ever written in my opinion. I just wish the rest of the CD held up, all of her "political songs" stink. I hate when singers try to push there political agenda down our throats, just because singers can make beautiful music does not make them smart, most of them are rich and stupid.
Sheryl, I have been buying your CD's from the begining and seen you in concert also but if you keep up with this crap you have lost a die hard fan.
