Sure Be Cool If You Didby Blake Shelton

Blake Shelton, country superstar, does it again, this time with "Sure Be Cool if You Did". Of course it is a country ballad. Of course it is a mellow-dramatic lullaby fusing alcohol and love. Of course it is built upon a line that has wooed a girl or two into a lurid affair. But nevertheless, it is undeniably a simple and contagious tune accompanied by a chorus that makes everyone feel good, as it captures the moment when one falls for a new flame unexpectedly. The guy portrayed in the song can dream of meeting the girl who knocks him dead. The girl typified in the song captures the imagination of all the ladies out there who wishes to bowl over some handsome man with their simple charms. While certainly a decent song, it does not merit any artistic awards. Its just too simple. However, given that Shelton has notched seven straight number one singles to date, this latest release will likely rise to number one due to his fan base and at some point will be sung at karaoke bars ad nauseam for years to come.
