Absolutely! Another way of saying "outstanding"! ("Admittedly, I am also biased towards a liking of Ray La Montagne because of respect for the outstanding way he conveys the experience of depression in "Empty")", said the man who has learned to live through chronic depression.) |

Interesting. I hate them both. Something about the singing style. Each to his own. See you back in a few minutes. |

Not a huge fan, I will admit. It sure seems like he gets a lot of plays. Was surprised to see just 5 in last 30 days. One of those tunes I feel like I hear to often.

The lyrics alone,conjure up such a picture and feel of a young mans Lament, "Howling at the moon like a slack jawed fool' country rocking, reminicent of C S N & Y..... ( imo )  |

I really do not like this man's voice and the way he uses it... too bad.

I don't usually go for the whiny singers, but Ray's voice has a huskiness that makes it sound not quite like whining — like, maybe, a melancholy reflection on aspects of Life that aren't barefoot dancing in a field of daisies.

Have to admit it took a while, but now I am a Ray fan. I think his voice is feminine, but it works. I think he sounds like Tracy Chapman, and I think she sounds like a man - so there you go. I like them both. |

Come on! Let the peddle steel just wash over you like an August wave from the Atlantic. His voice is like if velvet and chocolate had a baby and named it Fresh pot of coffee.

The guitar hooks are coming from the left speaker. Sounds like the guy's just sitting over in the corner, throwing in a lick here and there. Cool.

I would have bet money this was a woman singing - tend to like that type of voice on a woman singer
