New Sheryl Crow single released

Sheryl CrowiTunes, and I assume other online music sites, have released the new Sheryl Crow single, “Good is Good,” from the forthcoming album, “Wildflower,” which will hit stores on September 27. (The video of “Good is Good” will be on VH-1 on August 8.)

The song is … OK. It might grow on me, but right now, it’s just the sort of song that’s on all of Sheryl’s albums: Sort of morose, sort of country, sort of just there. This isn’t a soaring “Soak Up the Sun” or a rocking “Steve McQueen” or a bouncy “All I Wanna Do.”

And that’s OK. Lord knows, I find Buffett’s periodic desultory attempts to just give the audience what they think they want (more party songs, wooooooo!) to be pretty depressing. But this song of Sheryl’s doesn’t speak to me so far; if I’d heard it after the album came out, I’d have assumed it was just filler.

(See? I care about artists other than Liz Phair.)
