Michael Peterson

Michael Peterson used to be a motivational speaker, and now that he's a country star, he seems to have a similarly inspirational intent. Like his hero Garth Brooks, Peterson makes music to live by, except that (unlike Garth at his best) he tends to deliver his messages as wisdom imparted from on high rather than lessons learned. So even a song with solid advice like "You Find Love When You Make It"--a cut that follows the album's Garth + Michael McDonald sound equation--comes off like you're being talked down to by someone who's sure he has all the answers. And some of those answers are downright scary. "Two of the Lucky Ones," a duet with Bekka Bramlett, means to express a profound gratitude but winds up expounding a grim theology: if you've found true love, Peterson explains, then you're one of a "chosen few" upon whom "heaven sure smiled." Apparently then, an arbitrary heaven frowns down upon the unlucky rest of us, or ignores us altogether. So much for motivation.

Right Back

This is a bulls-eye from a very creative artist and Michael Peterson deserves all the recognition he is getting. Most of the songs on this album are good songs. The only song I didn't like was "For A Song," and that was because the song was just too slow. Songs like "Lost In The Shuffle" and "Love's Great" are good songs from the album that were not released. He did good in releasing the songs he did release. His debut single, "Drink, Swear, Steal, and Lie," is a very cool and unique up-tempo love song. The song "When The Bartender Cries" is a great song about an alcoholic facing himself for the first time. Another up-tempo song that is real good is "Too Good To Be True." Other good songs on the album are "By The Book," "That's What They Said About The Buffalo," and "Since I Thought I Knew It All." The best song on this album by far, however, is "From Here To Eternity." It is such a beautiful love song which asks the question "will you marry me?" It is one of the very few songs I know of that asks that question, and it is easily the best of the songs that do. His great voice also sings it with a lot of emotion and conviction, which makes the song that much more believable. I suggest you go out and buy both of his albums, "Michael Peterson" and "Being Human." You will not regret spending 25-30 dollars on these great albums. Michael Peterson has a very good future ahead of him.
