I like VG's vocal and it is showcased well in If You Ever Have Forever In Mind. It doesn't really sound country to me though. Good Time has some meh lyrics like that spelling part of song title, plus the song is like 1 min too long. I am surprised I am not the highest ranker of Like A Wrecking Ball At least it has an OK premise that he came home after tiring touring and decided to have sex as a greeting. Somewhat romantic. (The spelling mistake in Writer's though...) The I Don't Dance cover design is atrocious. What's the designer thinking? Song itself is not too bad although it did not hold up well. I know Husbands and Wives is a cover but it is such a random topic as a song. The message feels like incomplete and B&D don't sound well. I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow is too folk for my taste. Anf I am not fond of the vocals.

Finally... This song is so so bad and the fact that was recorded by Rhett makes the matters worse. I can't believe that it didn't end up in last place of this (or any other) rankdown...

Ok I love "Die a Happy Man"... It's burned on me a bit though, so I didn't put it in my top half but if you had asked me back when it was smashing, I probably would've put it in my top 30 or something!

Wow... disappointed!
The "Brother Where Art Thou?" soundtrack is pure GOLD and "I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow" is definitely one of the highlights!
It's a shame it's leaving the rankdown so early and behind such generic songs like "Die a Happy Man" :(

I ranked "Die a Happy Man" as low as I did just because it's Thomas Rhett.

I'm actually a lil sad I Don't Dance and Like a Wrecking Ball are gone this early
I don't mind Die a Happy Man, but it sounds like a rejected cover of Thinking Out Loud from Ed Sheeran (When Nelly does the song better...)

So you know I don't have a very high opinion of many of these songs if Shelton's versions of God Made Me You" made my top 60 lol.
Blake's is awful, but the original by Dave Barnes is pretty good.

Dave Barnes did it better. I like Blake's as well but my issue with his version is that his feels a little too polished. Where as the original does a much better job of sounding genuine. Good song regardless.

I find it rather funny that only two people ranked GGMY lower than its rankdown placement.

I actually didn't mind GGMY when it was out; again, I just remember how we feel about Blake (or is it just me?)

This is fine. Not one of Blake's best (and not really even close, honestly), but it's alright. shrug

I like Blake and I like most of his older songs (and some of the new ones too). I think God Gave Me You is a good song but it's very far from being my favourite from him.

"God Gave Me You" is the definition of bland and boring. Nothing good about it, but nothing inherently bad either.

Ah man. I have never understood why "God Gave Me You" is so hated. People always talk about it like it's in the same vein as "Sure Be Cool If You Did" or "Came Here To Forget" quality-wise, but when I listen to it I hear an epic power-ballad that is worthy of all the praises... Like, to me this is by far his best song since he started his #1 streak almost a decade ago. At least 2 of the songs on Bringing Back The Sunshine came close, but frankly in a big pile of blandness this song is head-and-shoulders above the rest.

The original "God Gave Me You" has too much wall of sound (I think it's what they are called?) effect in chorus which makes it sound so dated even though it is released in 2010. Blake's version has some melodies in it. Plus Blake has a better vocal presence than Dave.

Zac Brown Band's worst song and the reason it took me so long to listen to (and fall in love with) "Colder Weather".
