Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Thematically, Detours may not seem like much of a detour to Sheryl Crow fans. Her politics pour out of these songs the way you might expect them to if you caught wind of her epic cross-country bus trip, with the activist Laurie David, to promote environmental awareness months prior to this release. From the quiet, faraway-sounding opener "God Bless This Mess"--a novel in a song--to the catchy but thought-provoking "Gasoline," it's clear that Crow has more on her mind these days than soaking up the sun or having a little fun, à la the Tuesday Night Music Club era. Yet there's not a groan-worthy song on this standout rock/pop/folk/blues album. If the themes are heavy (in addition to the political songs, there's an almost painfully tender lullaby for her son Wyatt and one, "Make It Go Away [Radiation Song]," that touches on her breast-cancer experience), the mood is cathartic, determined, hopeful at times and sad at others. "Now That You're Gone" grabs at clarity through the clouds of a devastating love affair and gets it, and "Peace Be Upon Us" picks apart pettiness and arrives at a wide-minded beauty. George Harrison seems present in some of these songs, especially the more personal ones ("Drunk with the Thought of You," "Love Is All There Is"). And that may be the highest compliment that Sheryl Crow, who seems to admire his gentle soul and shares his big heart, could ask for. --Tammy La Gorce Amazon.com: Sheryl Crow is set to release her sixth studio album, DETOURS. The album marks the return of producer Bill Bottrell, who previously worked with Crow on her breakthrough debut album Tuesday Night Music Club, which earned the singer three Grammy Awards, and sold more than ten million copies worldwide.

Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Sheryl Crow DetoursPoor effort. We all know Sheryl can do much better than this. Shouldn't have wasted the $10. Rating:  - CD Sheryl Crow DetoursDetours Received in good order. High quality recording. Enjoyable listening. A happy customer. Rating:  - Sheryl Does It AgainI am a huge Sheryl Crow fan and I am very happy she rebounded after her last album "Wildflower" which was just okay for me. This one has got all the things you expect from a good Sheryl Crow record. She's rocky, dancy, happy and mad which balances this album off nicely. Some of my favorite tracks are "Shine Over Babylon", "Out Our My Head", "Now That Your Gone" and "Diamond Ring". If you are looking for a great album look no further then Detours. Rating: - Mediocre at BestLike many of you, I am also a big fan of Sheryl Crow and sadly, I didn't care a whole lot for this album. Sheryl can do better than this. I have faith in her. But what happened to the style of songwriting that helped create the great albums such as Tuesday Night Music Club, Sheryl Crow, or C'mon, C'mon? Ever since Wildflower, Sheryl's music has taken a turn for the worse. Now I understand, she dislikes George Bush. Who doesn't? But if I want to hear politics, I'll turn on the news. When it comes to my favorite artists, I want you to do what you do best - entertain me. Keep your political ideologies to yourself and just sing me a song to cheer me up and help forget about all the world's problems, even if just for a ... Read More: Rating:  - Misled and misleadingPolitical agenda hidden through the lyrics. To bad idiot entertainers think that their opinion is so much better than anyone else's. It is funny that a talent can be twisted and abused just like everything else. |
