Keith Urban Album: “Defying Gravity”

If there is one thing I can say about KU, it's that he is consistent. His releases are full of energy, insightful lyrics, great guitar riffs and heart. "Thank You" is going to get a lot of play at weddings...sort of KU's "Lost in the Moment" by Big & Rich. I was surprised by the drum loops used in some of the songs...I guess Chris McHugh needed a rest from all of the work the past year (KU, Little Big Town)...LOL. KU speaks highly of Radney Foster often, so it's nice to see "I'm In," a crowd favorite of Radney's fans, covered.

There are a huge number of commercial hits on this release so, no doubt, this will be a huge success. His shows are fantastic (I saw him in Los Angeles on the VIP tour Friday night at the HOB) - he's deserving of "Entertainer of the Year" given 140 nights a year at two to 2-1/2 hours a night. If you haven't seen him - you must. Enjoy!

In a world filled with constant uncertainty "Defying Gravity" is just what the doctor ordered. This album is full of joy, love and hope, not to mention the fantastic talent of Keith Urban. It really seems like Keith has come through his Love, Pain and the Whole Crazy thing and emerged a happy, content and joyful person. All of that is reflected on this album.

The songs are full of love and passion and hope. From the first single "Sweet Thing" though the latest single "Kiss A Girl" to the song that should be the next single "Hit the Ground Running" Keith has masterfully weaved his fantastic guitar work with some great lyrics.

I bought this album the day it came out and it hasn't left the player yet. This is a must buy not only for Keith Urban fans, but fans of great music and people who love a love song.

Keith has done it again! This record is filled with fantastic songs. It is a 'feel good' album that lifts my spirits. The depth of the lyrics touch me each and every time I listen. 'Thank You' is beyond words. Nicole is one lucky lady! And 'thank you', Keith, for a fantastic musical work!!

Being a huge Keith Urban fan I could not wait to get this album and listem too it. Keith always has new inventive ways of pulling you in to his songs and once again I was not disappointed!! This album is aussome and amazing!! Every song tells a story and lets you in a little more on where Keith is in his life right now. He is in such a great place and it is so good to hear how happy and joyful he is now!! Now dont think this is not a rockin album filled with layers of electrifying guitar work because it is all of that and more!! Keith has out done himself on this album...personal fave is "Till Summer Comes Around." It will be a huge hit for Urban and a concert fave! There is something so haunting and mysterious about that song. "If Ever I Could Love" is another great song...there are so many sounds and feelings to this song. It has a Celtic/Irish sound to it...truly a super listen. "Kiss A Girl" and "My Heart Is Open"...there are too many to mention but really all great. Everyone please get a copy of this new album. The best of the year! Keith thanks for opening up your heart and sharing with us once again!

I just added Keith Urban's "Defying Gravity" to my collection! I can't stop listening to it...he has really captured "love" and all the emotions that come along with it! The cd has a Blues-like quality to it with a little of the 1980's mixed in! I suggest everyone go and buy it because it is a wonderful set of music!
