Pro Reviews: Set This Circus Down
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Tim McGraw's first studio album on Curb Records after the multiplatinum success of A Place in the Sun delivers a more diverse selection in its 14 tunes with longtime producers Byron Gallimore and James Stroud. From the energetic honky tonk sound of "Forget About Us," to the upbeat tempo of "Telluride" to the Latinlaced "Let Me Love You," McGraw masterfully and consistently flows from one sound style to the next. Yet his familiar countrypop sound remains evident throughout, especially on the title track, a song about a fastpaced couple yearning to kick back and relax in the country (no one said the themes would be original). Sung with such confidence, one might believe it's a selfimposed goal set by McGraw. Just as convincing are the heartfelt ballads of "The Cowboy in Me" and "You Get Used to Somebody,"and "Angel Boy." McGraw's wife, Faith Hill, contributes subtle harmonic vocals on the emotionally compelling "Angry All the Time," written by maverick Americana outsider Bruce Robison. It portrays a relationship gone sour; a tune that was added to the set list no doubt to digress from his usual slate of love songs. Although the sentimental "Grown Men Don't Cry," written by Steve Seskin and Tommy Douglas, was the first official release from the album, McGraw's uplifting performance of "Things Change" at the Country Music Awards mysteriously found its way onto Napster first. Subsequently, the album track hit the country radio airwaves, where it received not only air play, but enthusiastic response form listeners and helped to push the sales of the album even higher. McGraw's aggressive approach to Set This Circus Down makes it one of his finest efforts. - Deborah Wong Thom Jurek, All Music Guide |

Pros: none
Cons: everything
Tim needs to get rid of his plastic cowboy hat, and quit singing about how he is a cowboy. I won't even listen to country music anymore because it is all the same. Why don't you nashville city slickers go back to the streets, until you can learn to play some real country music. What happened to the George Straights, someone who has actually been on a horse. There are some really talented artists out there, but quit trying to be cowboys and ruining the cowboy way. Take your fake hat, and boots back to your pickup and write some lyrics that you can actually believe in, and quit with the cowboy act ...
