COUNTRY
Still as hard to resist as a triple-fudge brownie, Sugarland's Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush kick off their third disc—and second as a duo—with the ditty-licious first single "All I Want to Do." Breezy and lightly bluesy, with the same carefree spirit as that like-named Sheryl Crow tune, it's already a hit on both the country and pop charts. Other highlights of a consistently entertaining set include "It Happens," a honky-tonkish play on "s--- happens," and the rock-edged ballad "Love," which showcases their vocal interplay. Best, though, is "Very Last Country Song," which fittingly ends the CD on a wistful note: "If we knew what we had before it was gone/If every road led back home/This would be the very last country song." Sweet stuff.
