Album Notes
Highlighted by the smash first single, "Ticks," a goofy-sexy ode to nudity al fresco, Brad Paisley's FIFTH GEAR maintains his string of albums neatly balanced between light pop-oriented material and more traditional country. The latter is best exemplified by the twangy guitar instrumental "Throttleneck," the reverent "When We All Get To Heaven," and the tuneful "Bigger Fish To Fry," featuring guest vocals by Vince Gill, Bill Anderson, and Little Jimmy Dickens.
Elsewhere, a lovely ballad duet with Carrie Underwood, "Oh Love," keeps an eye to Nashville's present as well as its past. As on most of Paisley's albums, the main lyrical topic, even more than the usual love songs, is what it means to be a man in contemporary America: "I'm Still A Guy" is perhaps the most obvious song on the topic, but the country rocker "Mr. Policeman," the wry character study "Online" (a song about Internet personas at odds with reality), and the surprisingly philosophical opener "All I Wanted Was A Car" flirt with the concept as well.

Editorial Reviews
[T]he guy's a vivid nostalgist, and his duet with Carrie Underwood is a harmonic delight. -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly

3 stars out of 5 -- Smart, low-profile Nashvillean Paisley's sixth album features not one but two songs about how adulthood beats adolescence.

    Having heard almost every Brad Paisley song out there, I must say that this cd is easily his best work. Like most Paisley cds it has every range of song; from upbeat, funny to sentimental love songs. If you like other Brad cd's you will certainly not be disappointed with 5th gear. Likewise, if you like the first single "ticks" you'll be pleased because there are a few other songs that display the same wit. "I'm still a Man" is similar in the clever lyrics. A sure single is "Online" This is by far my favorite track on the album. It's a clever look at the way people's looks become exaggerated while chatting on the internet. This track is so funny, you will have to listen to it again and again! The song discusses an overweight, momma's boy who still lives at home. However he says he's "so much cooler online." Online he's a 6'5" and looks "damn good" and drives a mazzeratti. However the truth is that he is 5'3" and overweight. It's funny...trust me!!!!

    Another great track is "Letter to Me" which does just that...it tells what he would write to himself at the age of 17. It's a slower song and really tells the truth on a lot of things. It tells of things he sees now but didn't understand at the young age of 17. Basically they are life-lessons

    Lastly, another slower song "It Did" is an amazing look at life. It describes several moments in life and how you may think it can't get better, but it can!!! It's a very emotional and inspirational look at life.

    Overall this album is amazing. There's something for everyone on this. If you're into comedy, it's here. If you like love songs, they're here. If you like to just have a good time, you will with this album...his best yet! *****
