"I feel like I've progressed in my work, and I've always
strived to get better," says McGraw. "On my last album, I was discovering some
new sounds and new things that I wanted to do, scratching the surface of the
direction I wanted to head. This album was a way to reach a little further back,
to all that I'd done throughout my career, and bring both sides together—it's a
combination of that discovery, along with some rediscovery."
On TWO
LANES OF FREEDOM, the sense of nostalgia comes through on the hard-driving
current single "One of Those Nights." The reverie of that song, though, is
countered by the humor and joy of "Southern Girl" or the feel-good hangover of
"Mexicoma." McGraw maintains that it was the album's title track that really
established the tone for the entire project.
"When we cut 'Two Lanes of
Freedom,' there was such a freshness to it," he says. "The track has this sort
of Gaelic drive to it and really sets a palette for the whole record because
it's so visual—it has that summery, hazy image and I think that made the whole
record open up for me."
McGraw reaches some especially emotional depth
in his performances on such songs as "Number 37405," the lament of a
singer-turned-convict. Most powerful of all might be "Book of John," a wistful
account of a family going through the journal left behind by its late
patriarch. The album closes with "Highway Don't Care," a breezy yet complex
track that features Taylor Swift (the song is featured as number 13 on the album
as a nod to her) and Keith Urban.
In his
record-shattering career, McGraw has sold over 40 million albums and dominated
the charts with 32 No. one singles. Since the release of his debut album in
1993, he has won three GRAMMY’s, 14 ACM Awards, 12 CMA Awards, and 10 AMA’s,
while simultaneously maintaining a parallel career as a successful actor in such
films as The Blind Side, Country Strong, and Friday Night
Lights—as well as hosting Saturday Night Live, a rare honor for a
singer in any genre. Nielsen-BDS recently certified McGraw as the most-played
Country artist of the past 20 years (1992-2012) with more than 10 million spins
detected and Mediabase recognized him as the most-played Country artist in the
history of their tracking service.

I'm not sure why but this weblog is loading very slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a problem on my end? I'll check back later on and see if the problem still
exists.
