“Still” – I have never before heard a Tim McGraw song that I hated so much. Tim used to have a genuinely country sound to his music, but now he’s diluting it in an attempt to keep up with younger country-rock acts like Jason Aldean. He is nearly drowned out by the bombastic overproduction. That exremely non-country guitar solo is painful to hear. This song is a smarmy, self-indulgent, pop-heavy trainwreck.

Am I the only one who thinks this song is fairly mediocre, both in content and production? Maybe it just hasn’t grown on me yet, but I think there are other songs on Southern Voice that are far more emotive and unique, such as Good Girls and I’m Only Jesus.

I agree “Still” is a beautifully inspiring song! Love the truth of it and McGraw did a great job with the vocal. Here’s to its success!

…the only thing that connects this song’s arrangement with country music is tim mcgraw’s voice. that is enough. it’s one of these songs of his that takes listening and little bit of time to grow on you but then it works beautifully and so does the review.

While I don’t love this song as much as you, I do like the sentiment of the song and love your review. It highlights the great thing about music–a song can connect to us on a personal level, making it a great song even without the typical criteria. Good job.
