Rickey Lee Watson “Time for Change” The timely recordings which Rickey Lee Watson, as a Country Artist, will be measured , may be critically acclaimed, while remaining commercially sound. Therefore, it shouldn’t be any surprise that the first cut “What I Love About America” doesn’t break new ground. It treads the familiar waters of American pride. Though views differ among media and press, throughout the twelve songs, Rickey demonstrates he knows exactly what Contemporary Country Music and heartfelt songs are all about. Bringing common themes of reality to the listening audience.The album showcases Rickey's ability to deliver a message with the familiar line: “I Still Gotta Go To Work”. Indeed, every song on the album sounds as if it were recorded to be a potential single, with solid hooks and melodies. At times the phrasing seems more focused on selling those aspects at the expense of emotion. The third song “Bottom Of A Bottle”, doesn’t have any problem with emotion. The attitude is noteworthy awareness of the growing problem in our society today.The LP's next song “Thanks To You” tells listeners, Rickey is grateful, he wants to give thanks for all that compliments our everyday life. Following this, penned as a novelty, fun country line dancing tune, filled with laughter and humor “Something That I Drank. The album moves along with another destined to top the charts. The track, “Thrown To The Wind” is a country song filled with emotions galore and a little wisdom. In a broken home scenario about to go bad if someone doesn’t give , the originality becomes apparent (if you haven't already felt and seen it). “You’re The Reason” points out where real songs are born originating a few questions about which many wonder. The song brings the heart, the true sound of country music and fiddle to life. Rickey merely relays the answers to those questions. One we can all relate to “Precious Moments” can take you back in time to relive that day. Basically, the message boils down to the only thing standing between us today and ultimate knowledge is lack of time to enjoy the present. Rickey displays and brings back memories of one of the greatest legends of our time “The Black # 3”, in a tribute to the late, great Dale Earnhart Sr. A pair of wings is the concept for “Say Hello To Heaven”. This song is dedicated to all who have lost a loved one due to an unfortunate drunk driving accident. A man tries to deal with loss and finding forgiveness, in the face of tragedy, raising a children alone. The next single is interesting, Rickey’s interpretation embraced the humor of the track; “I’m Alive and Well In Hell”. His presentation is straightforward, allowing much room for fun and dancing, while the message remains perfectly clear. Finally, “Where Ordinary Ends” recalls a few different life situations, the fine line between real values and a well delivered love song. The projects CD “Time for Change” and overall sound scenario changes are sure to bring you tears of emotion , laughter, and joy to your ears. Delivering heartfelt messages along the way with commercial appeal till the very end of the last word sung.
