Carey Ott: Human Heart (Capsule Reviews)

Mar 14, 2011, 2:57am PopMatters

If you're looking for an album that you'll have to call in sick to work to fully digest, Human Heart clearly delivers. Nashville singer/songwriter Carey Ott may be only two records deep into his career, but with Human Heart he has unleashed what can only be described as an epic. It is 20 songs long and runs for about 73 minutes, making it what us old-timers stuck in the vinyl age would call a double album.

The Song Remains The Same… Sort Of ("It's Only Love")

Aug 31, 2009, 7:30am Selective Service

Led Zeppelin came up with the best title for this kind of exercise. Sadly, nobody else has taken them up on the challenge to name another song by the same title. Pity. I went with a song title that's basically a wistful platitude. Enjoy the different connotations. Song Title: "It's Only Love" Artists: The Beatles. This is the version of the song I think of when I hear the title. Gotta love John's double-tracked vocals in the chorus. Elvis Presley. It's all [...]
