Josh Kelley’s “Backroads” album is pretty good, as it’s a mostly acoustic affair.

If Josh Kelley being around means Katherine Heigl shows up on country music award shows I’m all for it.

Country music is just quickly becoming background noise anyway.

I don’t mind the song –actually sort of like it– but you’re so right; I’ll forget about it in a few months’ time.

I will say that back in high school, I was obsessed with his “Amazing,” especially the acoustic version:

Don’t know any of his other stuff, though.

I’m guilty of somewhat enjoying this, but I’m gonna blame that on being born and raised in Georgia.

Also, I’ve just decided to stop listening to what the lines actually mean and just mindlessly sing along. Makes it infinitely more enjoyable.

Your last paragraph was brilliantly on target.

…being publicly asked what this song was about, after hearing it for the first time, could produce some seriously embarrassing moments. i guess, the country music hall of fame won’t have to rearrange anything in order to make room for a new member.

Spot-on review. It seems like you might expect a song about the “Georgia Clay” to have a certain rawness about it, and not so much of this slick and polished pop-rock sheen. But again, that’s country music in the 2000s.
