Highlighted by the smash first single, "Ticks," a goofy-sexy ode to nudity al fresco, Brad Paisley's FIFTH GEAR maintains his string of albums neatly balanced between light pop-oriented material and more traditional country. The latter is best ... Full Descriptionexemplified by the twangy guitar instrumental "Throttleneck," the reverent "When We All Get To Heaven," and the tuneful "Bigger Fish To Fry," featuring guest vocals by Vince Gill, Bill Anderson, and Little Jimmy Dickens.
Elsewhere, a lovely ballad duet with Carrie Underwood, "Oh Love," keeps an eye to Nashville's present as well as its past. As on most of Paisley's albums, the main lyrical topic, even more than the usual love songs, is what it means to be a man in contemporary America: "I'm Still A Guy" is perhaps the most obvious song on the topic, but the country rocker "Mr. Policeman," the wry character study "Online" (a song about Internet personas at odds with reality), and the surprisingly philosophical opener "All I Wanted Was A Car" flirt with the concept as well.Rolling Stone (p.72) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Smart, low-profile Nashvillean Paisley's sixth album features not one but two songs about how adulthood beats adolescence."
Entertainment Weekly (p.71) - "[T]he guy's a vivid nostalgist, and his duet with Carrie Underwood is a harmonic delight." -- Grade: B+ Hide Description Brad Paisley 5th Gear Songs Purchase 5th Gear CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Brad Paisley Time Well Wasted CD (2005)

Brad Paisley's music is an interesting amalgam of country sub-genres, a paradigm all its own. He melds straightforward, pop-friendly New Country with clever, somewhat Lyle Lovett-like songwriting and the occasional flutter of Joe Maphis/Jimmy Bryant-style guitar virtuosity. ...

5th Gear album
$14.95 
Kenny Chesney titled his 11th studio album JUST WHO I AM: POETS AND PIRATES out of the belief that modern country musicians contain a bit of both, due to their artistic nature and their peripheral, "on the road again" lifestyles. The album features elements of both, combining some of Chesney's sweetest love songs with a handful of rowdy country rockers for balance. One of the latter, "Wild Ride," is a manic party tune featuring the Eagles' Joe Walsh for just the right shade of dissolute atmosphere. ...

Brad stikes gold again
Brad Paisley has done it once more. He has created another CD that really has it all. From light hearted songs that everyone loves, like "Ticks" "Online" and "I'm Still A Guy" to the more emotional and songs everyone can relate to such as "Letter to Me" "With You Without You" and "Some Mistakes" he really encompasses it all. He's joined again with some good friends for "Bigger Fish to Fry" which is a satirish song about the Devil not noticing when they die, because he's got bigger fish to fry. "All I Wanted Was A Car" is a fun lead off track, which features the hardly ever used round at the end of the song, and it sets the mood for the CD. Each song has a little bit of something someone can relate to and has a lot of truth in them. Though he doesn't write every single song, "Better Than This" "Oh Love" "Bigger Fish To Fry" "It Did" and "When We All Get To Heaven" he still has incredible emotion in his voice, making them his own. Over all, I'd say this is tied for the best Brad Paisley album he's put out, hands down.

Man Brad Paisley just keeps getting better. I thought to myself he is going to really outdo himself to top his last CD "Time Well Wasted". Well he did it. This is an awesome CD. It's not a whole lot better thane his last but man that last one was his best one til now. The instant classic Ticks is just the beginning of a great Cd. Just put in and let it play track 1-16 and you wont be disatisfied. I guarantee you this. Way to go BP. You rock Man!!! Youre only getting better!!!
