CONTINUITY. Sorry, I mispelled the word. That will teach me to check the dictionary. Continuity. A continuous state or quality, An unbroken choerent whole, etc. If a song leaves you guessing to what happens next or suddenly drops off a cliff and has no rime or reason for doing it but to fill a space you aren't going to give it much time. These songs are somewhat disjointed to me. Doesn't mean they won't be sucessful they just don't send me. And to be sure, these songs are a good example of what is coming out of Nashville. The Labels find a young, good looking artist, try to make them into a songwriter, because they don't want to pay outside writer's and get a mediocre product in most cases. The Artist may have one good Album and then get dropped from the Label.

Nigel, I have been listening to good songs since the early 50's. So If I ain't hearing it, it ain't there.
