So was I the only one who actually liked Still a Little Chicken?
Oh wait, no I wasn't. WATZ played it almost once a month for about two years after its release.

I just listened to it for the first time. The production was horrible and the vocals were shout-y, but the lyrics are stupid fun. Wasn't the worst thing I've ever heard, but not something I'm going to be revisiting often. If you like it, more power to you. :) That being said, I think I'm going to have the chorus stuck in my head the rest of the day... |

The shouting and production is why I don't like it. The "It ain't over til you say it is" line was stuck in my head for weeks when this came out.  |

^ I must say that you should go listen to Craig's first two albums, or at least the singles from those albums. "Paradise", "Every Friday Afternoon", and "Look At Us" are great songs.

3. Bonfire (God help me, this falls into "so bad it's good" territory for me) This sums up my enjoyment of Bonfire. The cheesy video with Craig walking through an office building makes it even that much better. |

As mentioned many times here on Pulse, almost no one sings a well-written country song better than Craig. But he's had the strangest single choices.
Top
1. We'll Come Back Around (top 5 single of 2014 for me, great song)
2. That's What I Love About Sunday (even though overplayed, still a great song. Takes me back to 2004, year I graduated high school.)
3. Almost Home
4. I Want Us Back (only peaked at #51, which was a travesty).
5. Tough
6. Sweet Old Fashioned Goodness
7. This Ain't Nothing (some weird phrasing, but still a good song)
Bottom
1. Bonfire (hated it then, still do now. Why?)
2. Redneck Yacht Club (sang along at first, then radio played this to death. Supposedly this song started the summer song theme in country)
3. Still A Little Chicken Left On That Bone
4. Corn Star (albeit funny at first listen, should have NEVER been a single)

Top 1. We'll Come Back Around (top 5 single of 2014 for me, great song) I was pulling for this song well before its inevitable fateful release, and as the song goes I want to "Put my fist through the wall...and say I'm through with it all" when it comes to country radio. This song if released even in 2010 likely would've been a hit. But great songs like this can't get any airplay when up against the current state of radio. |

Vocally Craig Morgan is one of my favorite male artists in country music, and I even like a lot of his more novelty stuff, though there's no denying he excels at the deeper, more traditional-leaning fare (of which he has many in his arsenal). Honestly, I don't know why I haven't bought any of his albums yet. My guess is because I'd probably have to buy all 6 of his records to satisfy myself since I don't have one or two I feel more strongly about than the others.  Anyway... Top01. This Ain't Nothin' 02. That's What I Love About Sunday 03. This Ole Boy 04. Almost Home 05. Every Friday Afternoon 06. Love Remembers 07. Paradise 08. We'll Come Back Around 09. I Want Us Back 10. International Harvester Bottom01. Still a Little Chicken Left on That Bone 02. Bonfire ETA: Oh and ranking album tracks would be impossible since he has too many good ones and I'm not overly familiar w/ most of them, but "The Ballad of Mr. Jenkins" and "That's When I'll Believe That You're Gone" are Top 2. |

Craig is usually great, but some of his biggest hits have been my least favorite songs. And let's not forget his ode to the redneck songs...I just can't.
Favorites:
1. We'll Come Back Around
2. This Ain't Nothin'
3. Tough
4. Wake Up Lovin' You
5. Almost Home
6. I Got You
Least Favorites:
1. Bonfire (if there was ever a atrocious redneck song, this is it)
2. International Harvester (for some reason my local Austin station still loves this song and plays its consistently)
3. Redneck Yacht Club

I'd like to know: does Craig get all belt-y in concert? The thought of him bellowing out "MAN I WISH YOU'D JUST LEFT ME ALOOOOOONE, I WAS ALMOST HOOOOOOOOME" in the same overwrought style that he sang "Love Remembers" or "Bonfire" in scares me.

I went to an acoustic show to see Craig once and he did not go belt-y on "Almost Home". He kinda did on "Bonfire", lol; but not "Almost Home". He's pretty good live and a great guy. |
