  • They Say...

    BMG's 2007 compilation Totally Country, Vol. 6 is a good cross-section of mainstream country circa 2006 -- usually big hits but also smaller singles from big names, all adding up to a fairly representative snapshot of the sound of the mainstream in 2006. Among the highlights: American Idol winner Carrie Underwood establishing herself as a genuine country star ("Jesus Take the Wheel" isn't here, but the very good "Don't Forget to Remember Me" is); Brad Paisley nimbly updating the Bakersfield shuffle with the sunny, exuberant "The World"; pop star Michelle Branch successfully going country as part of the Wreckers on their excellent single "Leave the Pieces"; Sugarland's surging, anthemic "Something More"; Montgomery Gentry's "Something to Be Proud Of"; Gretchen Wilson's loose, funny "California Girls"; and George Strait's typically satisfying "She Let Herself Go." Faith Hill, Lonestar, Kenny Chesney, Martina McBride, Phil Vassar, and Big & Rich are all here, along with a handful of others, and even if not every song clicks, overall there's a high hit-to-miss ratio -- enough to make this a worthwhile roundup of notable country hits from 2006.
