Garth Brooks:Thread

any thoughts on Him as a Artist? His 90's Dominance? His Albums? Vocals?Live Shows? hard to believe 10 Years back Garth Brooks was rolling Large.seems like Yesterday.I only dig a few of His Songs two of them are: "If Tommorow Never Comes"&"The Dance". but I don't fully get all the Hype with Him.Thoughts:

Garth has a beautiful voice.
R those the only songs u like?
or the only ones u've heard?
He's got alot of them that are very good.
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Do you guys remember when he did that alter ego thing a couple of years back as Chris Somebody-or-Other? The record as a whole didn't do it for me, but there was one outsanding song on the disc, very " soft 70's-Kenny Loggins-like", with him singing in a higher register that was unlike anything I had ever heard him do before- the name of it is on the tip of my tongue, but i just can't remember it! If anybody else out there knows the name of that particular single, please let me know. It's just a really pleasant, well crafted piece of songwriting, and actually, the more I think about it, the more I get the urge to hear it...

I love his version of "Hard Luck Woman"
on the KISS remake CD, also, Lenny Kravitz's
version of "Deuce" is great! The only 2 songs
on that CD that are any good, IMO.

Garth's voice really shines on the slow jams...

Much Too Young (to feel this damn old)
I Know One
She's Every Woman
New Way To Fly
Unanswered Prayers
Somewhere Other Than The Night
Every Now And Then
What She's Doing Now
The Dance
If Tomorrow Never Comes

All great songs, IMO.
I could do without his cowboy act, but his
voice is awsome.
