On Homesick, the ghosts of a departed lover make the narrator long for life on the road its got the kind of stirring heartbreak that can be found on some of Bonnie Raitts late-period ballads. The album is at its best when it sticks to the timeless stuff about love and loss. We Oughta Be Drinkin overplays its raucous nature, while the tough-talking social commentary found on Crazy Aint Original These Days and Best Of Times is strained at best. She really goes to town on the soulful Give It To Me, a direct plea to a reticent lover that allows her to project power and vulnerability all at once.įeels Like Home goes astray only at the times when it seems like its too eager to court hard-core country fans. She nimbly handles the frank come-ons of Shotgun and Easy and finds the tenderness in quiet character sketches like Stay At Home Mother and Homecoming Queen. The album also highlights what an outstanding singer Crow is. Feels Like Home might have in-your-face hooks (especially on the up-tempo numbers) and gleaming production, but the frank, honest storytelling and emotional punch of the songs, courtesy of Crow and a bunch of ace collaborators, are what lingers. Hits like All I Wanna Do and Leaving Las Vegas may have been more loose-limbed musically than your typical Nashville groove, but the detail-heavy lyrics were right from the country playbook. Looking back on Crows catalog, its not surprising that she can make the transition. Songwriter and performer might have been still a star even if C&W got her before pop radio did. This foray into country music is smooth, polished, and well-executed, with a few standout moments that suggest that this talented While one would have to be inside the head of Sheryl Crow to determine exactly what her motives were in releasing Feels Like Home, the evidence on the disc suggests that this was a natural progression for Crows music rather than a mercenary one. When the hits get fewer and farther between, you just head to Nashville, ladle on the strings and pedal steel, and youve got yourself a brand new audience ready to lap it all up, as if it were that easy. The cynical response that comes to the fore when an established pop/rock artist like Sheryl Crow makes a country album is that its a ploy intended to prop up a flagging career.
