The 2006 Country Music Awards' American Country Music and Country Music Television vocal group of the year has done it again. Following up their quadruple-platinum album "Me and My Gang," Rascal Flatts released another hit album in September of 2007 entitled "Still Feels Good."
As the Billboard and Radio & Records Artist of the Year in 2005, Rascal Flatts has found their niche - as demonstrated by their song "Bless the Broken Road" taking home the Country Song of the Year Grammy in 2005.
"Still Feels Good" shows off the moving lyrics and diversity of emotion the group is known for.
Not only that, but the album boasts of a variety of tempos: from the slow, melancholy nature of "Winner at a Losing Game" to the tap-your-foot, rock-out "Bob That Head."
The album's hit single is "Take Me There," a song which took country music stations by storm this past summer and which has an undeniably catch rhythm.
If you're looking for an album with a song for every occasion, this is it. To sit and actually be able to understand the lyrics of a song these days is rare - and refreshing.
"Still Feels Good" tells a plethora of stories: happy, sad and everything in between, so you can soak in the music and the lyrics at the same time.
The songs of "Still Feels Good" are so moving that even if you don't fall in love with every song, there are at least a few that will captivate you - whoever you are. Country music lovers everywhere ought to grab a copy of this album. It will not disappoint.
