 Singles, Deep Cuts, and the Whole Crazy Album! Feb 18, 2009
Keith Urban has done with this album what Godsmack did with Faceless, Creed did with Human Clay, Tim McGraw did with Set This Circus Down, Kenny Chesney did with Wehn the Sun Goes Down, and so forth... He set himself apart as an individual artist, in control of his own canvas. This is not a music industry album, the is pure Keith Urban. The songwriting is better from him than it has ever been, and the performance is over the top. Both vocally and with his guitar. The remakes are picked perfectly as well. And as with only the best artists, he makes the songs written by others, all his own. "Stupid Boy" has more instrumental emotion that most other country songs I've heard. "Raise the Barn" with Ronnie Dunn is a duet for the ages. The mesh perfectly, like old friends. "I Cant Stop Loving You" sounds like it was written for KU. It makes you forget that Phil Collins ever recorded it. "I Told You So" goes effortlessly from uptempo country ballad to southern rocker. Go get it. Even as a non-country fan, this one can knock your socks off.
Then new mature rough and sexy kind of Country Nov 22, 2008
This here is a VERY talented man! He has covered so many areas with this album. From the slow relaxing laid back kinda music, some toe tappin dance tunes and and a little Rock with with roll of dice. But I think if I had to pick a fovorite on this album, it would have to be Stupid Boy. Finally someone who sings about taking responsibility for his own mistakes, rather than sittin back blaming the one his heart hurts for. I am glad his wife didn't talk him COMPLETELY out of leaving the Country music field. He is a good compliment to the genre.
 I don't see what the rave is all about. Oct 17, 2008
Keith has had better songs and content in my opinion. I love a couple of songs, but kinda felt the rest all seemed like downers and sounded a bit alike. I think his next album will be better.
 Good but not his best Jun 28, 2008
LPATWCT is a good CD....I think he should have released a couple more of the songs as singles(FASTER CAR, SHINE or Used to the Pain for example) instead of "reaching back" to "You Look Good in My Shirt" from Golden Road for his current single....I think my favorite CD is BE HERE, but that's probably because it was the beginning of my "Keith Addiction" back in 2005....HE IS ONE OF THE MOST TALENTED PERFORMERS IN MUSIC TODAY (even better than his friend Kenny Chesney in my opinion)...He's one H*LL of a GUITAR PLAYER....Don't let the "Country Music" moniker fool you, he's a ROCK 'N ROLL, SWEAT SLINGIN' GUITAR GOD....If he's going to be near you with Kenny this summer (or even better with his own tour) you'll do yourself a HUGE favor by going to see this man....NO ONE has "moved" me like this guy since the BEATLES (dating myself I know)....HUGE TALENT....
The evolution of an Aussie superstar May 02, 2008
Before giving you my view of the album, allow me to give you some insight on Keith as a musician and a person. As many know, Keith had a hard fight with substance abuse (as is told in his first album, "Golden Road"). He's had his share of heartache, which has given him wisdom and a clearer view of the reality of life. He is in touch with his feelings and emotions, and his music reveals that. His songs are simply brimming with descriptive and realistic feelings that draw the listener in. He offers a wide range of subjects in his songs: from carefree bliss to heartbreak to the quiet assurance of love. His style has evolved from your typical new country to boarderline rock. His newest album, "Love, Pain, and the whole crazy thing" combines his relatable songwriting abilities and his ever-changing style to produce an album of extraordinary talent.
There are enough keepers on this album to make it worth buying, but as is the case with every album, there are some duds and fillers, but that's to be expected.
Keith's fairly high vocals add a passion and depth to his music that you ordinarily don't hear much of in male country artists. And his rockin' guitar solos are back for another round. Rejoice all Urban fans!
My top track are these:
Stupid Boy - the most emotional song of the album and it also won a Grammy. When Keith pleads, "God, just let her know I'm sorry," you can hear the pain in his voice. Also his best guitar solo of the album.
Once In a Lifetime - a sweet love song almost similar to "Better Life" but not as giddy. Keith's songwriting talent really shines through. This one will be stuck in your head for days.
Everybody - once again Keith is back with those words of encouragement. He employs his signature style of gradual crescendos in this one from acoustics to a blast of guitars, drums and vocals. "Everybody needs somebody sometimes."
I Told You So - the lyrics aren't very deep, but the music is irrestibly catchy. I love rockin' to this one. You'll love it too.
As to the matter of comparison, I think I enjoyed "Be Here" slightly more. It was more upbeat and had catchier tunes and Keith stayed pretty conservative in his vocals and arrangements, but "LP+wct" is definetely worth getting.
