By Marianne Horner These days, many fans choose to buy their favorite tracks from an artist on iTunes, rather than go out and purchase an entire album. Some artists (notably Garth Brooks and Kid Rock) don't like the idea and have refused to allow their music to be made available that way. And while Keith Urban's...

By Craig Shelburne Last week, I interviewed songwriter Monty Powell prior to his No. 1 party for “Sweet Thing,” recorded and co-written by Keith Urban. They have been friends since 1993, Powell said, so on behalf of Urban’s millions of fans, I had to ask - What is he really like? Photo credit: Ed Rode

By Jim Malec But Urban’s upbeatness has typically been tempered by much more artistically engaging fare like “Stupid Boy,” which came on the heels of “Once in a Lifetime Love,” and “You’ll Think of Me” which immediately followed the breezy “Who Wouldn’t Want To Be Me.”

By ANTHONY KUZMINSKI(noreply@blogger.com) I'm not a country music fan. Don't get me wrong, I admire the art form and view many of the classic country artists (Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams) to be nothing short of sheer brilliance. However, in the last few years I have been semi-seduced by country music. It's sometimes not e...
