I was just thinking how there hasn't been an album by lyle lovett with a black-and-white cover in awhile when out of the blue: Bam! He drops this lil' beauty. It's chock full of mediocre, samey-sounding, uninspired ditties! His singing drones on and on for what seems an eternity wrapped in a candy coating of "kuntry"TM stylings (not to be confused with actual country which has a long and noble tradition). His voice quavers and floats in a sea of calculated vocal "emo-shun"TM (not to be confused with actual emotion derived from hardship or life-experience). His lyrics wallow in self-conscious "Clev-R-Ness"TM (not to be confused with actual cleverness which is occasionally entertaining and amusing). I really enjoyed listening to this while I ate a large order of McDonalds Chik-N-Selects, Super-size fries, and large Pepsi in my Chevy Suburban.
