    On their fifth record, working with music producer Nathan Chapman, Lady Antebellum keep evolving their sound as proved by Long Stretch Of Love, 747 and Freestyle but staying true to themselves and their songwriting style which is exalted on the superb Lie With Me, One Great Mystery and Down South. Overall a different work from their previous releases, really well done!!

    Their second best album, after Need You Now. Lie With Me is one of their best songs so far. The bonus tracks Falling for You and Slow Rollin' are awesome.

    This is not the best album by Lady A. Why? Because it feels so rushed and impersonal to the three members of the band. I think they did something really quick just to please the fans, on the opposition of them taking their time to record such a fine as their previous one, "Golden". But fans weren't pleased. Sure some melodies stuck around, like "Damn You Seventeen" (which is GENIUS), "747"This is not the best album by Lady A. Why?

Sure some melodies stuck around, like "Damn You Seventeen" (which is GENIUS), "747" and "Bartender", but the rest of the songs are almost all fillers that have no beginning and no ending. I'm sorry Lady A, this is a miss. Hope you'll take your time to make a great comeback! 5.… Expand

    It’s the incredible balance of Lady Antebellum’s many shades that makes this a flight worth catching.

    Whatever chemistry singers Charles Kelley and Hillary Scott had fizzles on 747.... 747 also suffers from baffling sequencing, opening with three downbeat songs and closing with the train-track skip of kiss-off “Just a Girl,” a song with so much modesty and so little finality to it that the record seems to simply stop.

    Lady Antebellum always have been a pop band so this concentrated gloss doesn't feel inappropriate.
