 Every Song Is Excellent October 24, 2009
Scott Gordon (Trenton, NJ USA)
What a great album! I buy every Brad Paisley album and I believe this one is the best of them all. Rarely, do you get an album like this one where every song is a pleasure to listen to. And all the songs sound like country music, unlike a lot of "country" albums that sound more like pop-rock. Usually, there's at least one or two songs on an album that are ho-hum or worse. This album contains no such songs. Every song keeps you involved and stimulated. If you like country music, this is an album for you!
Welcome to the Future is our Family's Theme Song! October 13, 2009

I fell in love with this song immediately when I heard it on the radio! My family and I are deeply committed Christians who do not celebrate Halloween, rather we celebrate October 31, 1517 as the anniversary of the day Martin Luther started the Reformation, setting a fire of commitment under the seats of all who have stood up in the face of religious lunacy. He challenged the rites of the Catholic Church based on his reading of the Scriptures, realizing that their rites of purchasing one's entrance into heaven for example was not based on the authority of God at all, but on the greed of men who wanted to rob the poor. Taking advantage of anyone in the name of religion is never wise nor godly, plus it taints the respect and reverence that is due to God, our Father. As our hero of the faith, I was thrilled to hear this singer pay homage to a usually ignored saint, and certainly he is worth remembering, especially as our world continues to turn its back on its Christian heritage. My children and I will be listening to this song this October 31st as we go to church to hear a famed Irish pastor speak about the courage of Martin Luther and the reformation movement he started almost 500 years ago now. Way to go Brad!
 Not Just to Be Played On American Saturday Nights September 27, 2009
David Jones (North Wales, United Kingdom)
After a semi-instrumental album ("Play"), Nashville's favourite singer/songwriter/guitarist is back with "American Saturday Night", a surprisingly stronger album than its predecessor ("5th Gear") and one which finds Brad in a nostalgic mood, no doubt because of the birth of his second child. Thus, there are lots of father/son mentions on this album, most notably on the ballads "Anything Like Me" and "No".
Brad's almost been a past master when it comes to the slowies, having had monster hits with the likes of "Little Moments" and "Watin' On a Woman". This romanism isn't abandoned and is executed exceedingly well on the lead-off single "Then", which reminds me of his smash hit "She's Everything" and is likely to be a favourite with the ladies. It shows Brad meeting a girl, "taking forty five minutes to say goodnight" and proposing etc, and each time he reaches a particular milestone, he looks back and think, "And I thought I loved you then".
Like all Brad Paisley albums, half of it's made up of romantic ballads, and the other half are fun up-tempo tunes, in this case, "Water", and references everything it includes, from paddling pools, beach parties to wet-T-shirt contests. Also, the humorous "You Do the Math" and, in particular, "The Pants" ("It's not who wears the pants/It's who wears the skirt") continue the jokey side of the album and also of the artist's personality.
The second single is "Welcome to the Future", where Brad marvels at how far the world has come in terms of technology and sociological views. This sounds serious, but it's a fun, up-tempo number which is burning up the airwaves stateside. Nearing the end of the disc, when you think you've heard pretty much everything this album has to offer, comes "I Hope That's Me". Whereas "Then" looked back, this one looks forward, as Brad contemplates his future and sees an old, loving couple and hopes that will be him and his wife in years to come.
Another theme running throughout the album, apart from nostalgia and family, are Saturday nights - and not just of the American variety. Brad name-checks The Beatles within the title track's first few lines and the musicality of "Welcome to the Future" harks back to eighties era U2. With so much talent to call upon, and so many influences to exude, it's no wonder Brad Paisley has delivered such a fine album. It's no wonder it's been universally acclaimed from the usually cumbersome critics.
Worth a listen every night September 25, 2009
Reginald B. Niro (Seattle, WA)
Brad Paisley's AMERICAN SATURDAY NIGHT is worth a listen any day of the week! I am a fan of Brad Paisley's music and believe him to be one of the best country songwriters today! His two current hits, THEN and WELCOME TO THE FUTURE, demonstrate that he can be romantic, introspective, thought provoking, humorous and clever all at the same time. Sure there are few laugh-out-loud or Aha! moments like his previous singles TICKS, ONLINE or ALCOHOL, but Brad Paisley demonstrates that, as an artist, he is always trying a fresh approach to his songs. I especially liked the acoustic WELCOME TO THE FUTURE reprise and the clever lyric of THE PANTS. And if you ever get a chance to see Brad Paisley live in concert, don't miss it! I had the privilege of catching him in concert for the Paisley Party last year at the Tacoma Dome, WA. You don't even have to be a country music fan to enjoy his concert because many of his songs are clever and fun!

Brad Paisley's American Saturday Night is wonderful. I absolutely love it. I love all the songs on the album, but my favorite has to be "Then". I have no idea what people are talking about when they say he's missed the mark. Each album he puts out is great whether it's mostly instrumental or all lyrical songs.
