Kacey Musgraves - 2013 Anticipation

I think I like each album less than the first but love them all.

I’ve seen this discussed as a potential Album of the Year (Grammy) nominee.... which surprised me, but we’ll find out on Dec. 5.

why doesn't the new album have its own thread?

POLLden hour is surely coming soon

cma album of the year

That’s cool; I would have thought it’s not “Country” enough.

pretty cool given how hitless it was

Didn’t CMA give Stapleton awards before he had hits?

But yeah pretty cool

Bentley's The Mountain was a better album but I'm quite alone on that one lol. I know it has supporters on the country thread.

every time i come back to it i get a lovebuzz

She’s such a great melodist

i haven't actually listened to this all that much this year, but every time i did the songs, lots of them, would just pop into my head for days and days afterward, it's really something

this is underrated imo

Yeah her Xmas album has got a lot of play from us the last two years

Oh wow thanks for the suggestion !
I had never considered listening to her xmas album since I don’t care about these things in general but it’s charming and great !
Glad to have this addition to her catalogue !

on a drudge work day, this album is like a drug

Cancelled tomorrow night's show. She cited cold weather, I cite diva.

>:(

She's from East Texas, where it gets to 19 Degrees for one night every 4 years.

I know, I get it. But she's not playing outside.

jes thinkin of the fans

Ok after the eoy singles poll I gave a chance to Golden Hour and I’m in. The production on this is so good, everything sounds so warm and perfect, how did they make the acoustic guitars sound this good? It’s insane.

I’ve read many comparisons but one I’ve yet to read and the one it reminds me the most is Aimee Mann, particularly “lost in space” but you know, less engineered.

Kacey cleaned up... #Grammys

how was it not even nominated for best engineered (non-classical)

heard a kacey song on the radio for the first time since "keep it to yourself" on country radio five years ago. this time it was "rainbow" on an adult contemporary station.

actually i lied, close to the time of the album's release i heard "slow burn" and another track (i think "space cowboy") on a noncommercial/community station

This is a pretty fun analysis of "Butterflies" !

still love that song, btw.

really heartening to see her finally cross over -- was at a show last night and the artist, who I don't think has any kind of country affiliation, covered "Golden Hour." (I suppose you could frame that as cynical if you're, like, s*ving country music, but why?)

For a man who clearly loves being well-liked, it’s indescribably mind-numbing to see him blatantly and murderously ignore doing ONE THING that would not only make people happy but would SAVE PEOPLE’S LIVES. True leaders don’t stand back and watch the world burn. @realDonaldTrump

tis now the season

fluffy as hell but really enjoyed that xmas special

She was great at the Amazon festival this weekend

I appear to be in the minority about Golden Hour. I mean I can see why she did it and good for her crossing over and everything but to my ears it just feels breezy and generic in a boring way. It's not *bad* per se, it just sorta drifts by anonymously.

Nah, I got you. I'm not a fan either. The most poignant thing she's released in the last two years:

This is pretty poignant, too ;)

I'm not a fan of Golden Hour.

I agree on Golden Hour but I’ve still given into the urge to play it like 10 times in the last month

These are dope

Not much of a song, but still looking forward to this album.
