The band name Sugarland consists of a Gentleman named Kristian Bush and a lovely woman named Jennifer Neetles. Together this duo is one of my favorite country bands. Even though they are heard on country radio stations, they describe their newest record as being a country record, a pop record, an anthem record, a ballad record, but above all, an authentic record. Whenever I hear their songs on the radio, I blast the volume! Listening to their album makes you feel like you could accomplish anything that deals with love. They sing about break ups, first meeting the other, falling in love, knowing when it’s right, cheaters, everything! Their newest single “Stuck like Glue” is a catchy song that is about almost breaking up however there is always that one last spark. The main lyrics that describe this song are, “How did we stay so long together? Everybody said we never would. And just when I start to think they’re right the love has died, there you go making my heart beat again, heart beat again, heart beat again”. To me, these lyrics are memorable because being a high school student you often times go through situations like this. Almost breaking up but then staying together because your heart starts to beat again. One of their other songs which I love is called, “Stay”. The title is pretty self explanatory, it is about a girl who is getting broken up with and all she wants him to do is stay. This song reminds me a lot of “Stay” by Miley Cyrus. In her song she talks about each day getting harder, how no one could take his place, and if she could have one wish it would be to have him stay by her side. These two songs are almost exactly alike. In the article “Sugarland’s Sweet Success” Gary Trust talks about all Sugarland’s accomplishments. For example, scoring its third number one on the Billboard 200. When he stated his personal thought I agreed completely, that this duo will be hot and popular for a long time to come! My personal opinion would be to go spend as much money as it takes to see this band, because they sing a wide variety and are great with the audience!
