View More By Kenny Chesney Our ReviewKenny Chesney returns to his favorite island haunts on 2008’s Lucky Old Sun — but this time the journey is a bittersweet one. A pang of longing runs through this album, expressed in both its world-weary lyrics and the muted sound of its tracks. Beneath the drowsy Caribbean imagery found here, there’s a reoccurring sense of heartache and a yearning for escape. “Way Down Here,” “Spirit of a Storm,” and “Boats” express a desire for healing and solace amidst balmy, acoustic-based arrangements. Chesney declares his gratitude to the Lord in “I’m Alive” and settles into a contented state in “Nowhere to Go, Nowhere to Be.” He manages to stir up some playful energy on “Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven” (backed up by reggae’s legendary Wailers) and slides into a bluesy mood for “Ten with a Two.” But what truly defines this album is its melancholy title tune, rendered with a wistful air by Chesney and guest star Willie Nelson. Lucky Old Sun is a work of mature reflection that downplays obvious radio hits in favor of something more personal and, ultimately, more appealing. Chesney sounds sadder but wiser as he delivers one of his best song collections in years.. Customer ReviewsWhat happened to the old kenny??

Young, Dont't Happen Twice, The Good Stuff, I Go Back, Summertime, Never Wanted Nothing More No songs.... Just stories (5 stars) Alot of people say that kenny has over done the "Island" thing that it's gone on too long... I disagree!!! the songs he writes while in the Islands are inspired by the people he meets.... they tell stories of that person's life or how that person inspired Kenny in some way... like the song "The Life" It's about a guy he met in Mexico that was just making ends meet by living his life and fishing for a living, playing his g BiographyBorn: March 26, 1968 in Knoxville, TNGenre: Country Years Active: '90s, '00s, '10s Contemporary country star Kenny Chesney didn't have the immediate breakout success that many of his peers enjoyed upon signing with major labels, but gradually built up a significant following via hard work, pop-friendly ballads, and a likable, average-guy persona. Chesney was born in Knoxville, TN, in 1968 and raised in the nearby small town of Luttrell, better known as the home of Chet Atkins. He grew up listening to both country and rock & roll, but didn't get serious about music until college,...
