My Favorite Highway’s rereleased CD, How to Call a Bluff, is song after song of sincere lyrics, great vocals, and catchy melodies. From the very first song, Simple Life, the band sends the listener a message about how “we all want something more than just the simple life”, a fact relatable to everybody. The music video for the band’s first single, “Say So”, can be seen at ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWvY3Ym4Xtc . The fifth song in the album is yet another song with great lyrics about how “nothing’s bigger than love”. The song is very easy to listen to and will have the listener singing along to the chorus in no time. My personal favorite on the album is the song “Getaway Car”, which starts with a very addictive piano intro and includes one of my favorite lines throughout the CD: “Go on, get up, get out. Don’t even think about it.” The CD ends with another one of my favorite songs, “Steel City”, a song about the city of Pittsburgh. Overall, this CD is filled from beginning to end with great songs and refreshingly earnest lyrics.
