详细介绍:
Maren Morris has settled into a sweet spot with her third record. Produced by Greg Kurstin (Adele, Halsey), it%27s still more country than her last album, Girl. With Morris—who went full pop on her massive 2018 Zedd collaboration The Middle—wearing a crown on the back cover, plus songs about unity and supporting the sisterhood, Girl practically screamed millennial pop country. Humble Quest feels more rooted, both musically and personally. There are love songs for her husband, singer-songwriter Ryan Hurd, like flirty Tall Guys, a beachbum vibe crossed with %2760s girl-group sighs and packed tight with Morris%27 signature wordplay: Keeps me looking up when I%27m feeling down … when I can%27t see over he puts me on his shoulder. (Morris is 5%271; Hurd is 6%273.) Loosely rollicking I Can%27t Love You Anymore is clearly about Hurd (the clues include him being from Michigan and so good-looking it kind of makes me sick). Their toddler son, Hayes, can be heard cooing at the start of acoustic Hummingbird; with its Appalachian gothic vibe, it recalls Gillian Welch—intriguing new territory for Morris. The same goes for Nervous, an edgy, sexy, %2780s-inflected hard-charger. To the easy, early Sheryl Crow groove of Circles Around This Town, Morris writes her own history of arriving in Nashville. I swear I don%27t know how I trusted/ A Montero with the AC busted/ A couple bad demos on a burned CD/ Would take me all the way to Tennessee, she sets it up, explaining how she Drove circles around this town/ Trying to write circles around this town. She thinks about leaving, then catches her break with early hits: Couple hundred songs and the ones that finally worked/ Was the one about a car and the one about a church (%2780s Mercedes, My Church). And even now that she%27s had number one records and won CMA, ACM and Grammy Awards, the drive hasn%27t really changed: I still got the pedal down/ I still get lost, I still get found. With its catchy vocal-melody ascent and pure country roots, Detour feels like an outtake from Morris%27 great Hero. What Would This World Do? is a piano ballad, sung with Hurd, that%27s heart-tugging in the Brandi Carlile vein. And Morris has practically guaranteed her future as a wedding-dance staple with Background Music. Swoony and free-floating like a feather, it%27s a true-love ballad that measures mortality: We call it forever but we know that there%27s an end to it/ You and I can dance our way through it/ And I%27ll love you %27til all that we are is background music, she sings. But it%27s obviously also incredibly personal for her and Hurd and their musical legacy. Maybe all we%27ll ever be to them in a hundred years is three minutes in a car, in a bar, that says we were here.
