    For a meat 'n' potatoes country singer like Toby Keith, he does a pretty good job of showing a sensitive side, though his ballad baritone goes slightly shaky when left out too long. Even so, with a basic mixture of beery braggadocio and tender sentiment Keith (who cowrites most of his material) seems to have hit his stride and has found a formula that commercial country has finally embraced. On this follow-up to his 1999 How Do You Like Me Now, production values remain slick, considering how much testosterone is involved, but there's still room for this Oklahoma boy to strut while a handful of heavy metal arpeggios punctuate the proceedings. --Henry Cabot Beck

    5 out of 5 stars Toby Keith does it once again!   September 1, 2001
     32 out of 36 found this review helpful

    In a day where singer/songwriters aren't as popular as they once were, Toby Keith has been unfortunately overlooked until recently. This CD follows up his hit "HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW?!", and is even better.
    "PULL MY CHAIN" opens with the catchy "I'm Just Talkin' About Tonight", and follows with the rap/country mix of "I Wanna Talk About Me." "I Can't Take You Anywhere" follows the same beat, but the album slows down (tempo-wise, not quality) for "You Leave Me Weak", probably one of the best country love songs of the year. "Tryin' To Matter" is about trying to make it all work out. "Pull My Chain" is one of the highlights of the album, combining humor and wit and love (as do a lot of the songs) into four minutes of fun. "The Sha La La Song" is also a great tune to listen to. "Pick 'Em Up and Lay 'Em Down" will get you dancing and singing along, which, I know from experience, is tricky to do at the same time! "Forever Hasn't Got Here Yet" sounds like it was made exclusively for radio, whether that be good or bad. "Yesterday's Rain" is about how love never fades away, even when your love one does. "My List" is a song for all of us--how, even though we have things to do, we must always make time for those we love. "You Didn't Have As Much To Loose" is another love-gone bad ballad, showing Keith's emotional side. And don't forget Keith's writing abilities; he cowrote nine of the album's twelve songs. THAT's talent! For Toby Keith fans and nonfans alike, this is one album you don't want to miss. So buy it and PULL MY CHAIN!



    5 out of 5 stars TOBY KEITH COMES THRU AGAIN!!   September 2, 2001
     21 out of 23 found this review helpful

    Even though I'm a long-time Toby Keith fan (way back to his initial release, "Should Have Been a Cowboy"), I still feel that I can be objective when it comes to his new material. Order "Pull My Chain" NOW--you won't be disappointed. And...PLAY IT LOUD! How better to listen to his deep, clear, resounding voice?

    The instrumentation on this particular CD is outstanding, and the production is crisp and top-notch. Toby really branches out on this one, trying some different musical paths. This CD will appeal to the "die-hard country fan", as well as to those who are just starting to test the country waters. My particular favorite tracks are--
    "Pick 'em Up & Lay 'em Down"--written by Dave Loggins, but Toby makes this one his own. Play this one VERY LOUD!
    "I'm Just Talkin' About Tonight"--this one RACED up the charts, and is currently "stuck" @ #2 on Billboard.
    "I Wanna Talk About Me"--sure to be a crowd pleaser, and will certainly appeal to the male persuasion (and to the women of the world who like to laugh at themselves...like me).
    "You Didn't Have as Much to Lose"--one of Toby's signature power ballads.

    I could go on because there are several more songs that could easily become hits on this CD. PICK UP THIS CD...YOU WON'T LAY IT DOWN! You don't just get "Meat and Potatos"...you get dessert, too!


    5 out of 5 stars Still Likin' Him   August 28, 2001
     18 out of 21 found this review helpful

    Toby Keith's output at Mercury Records (1993 - 1998) brought him steady - if unspectacular - success. Keith finally broke through to country's elite level with his 1999 award-winning Dreamworks' debut How Do You Like Me Now? It's follow-up, Pull My Chain, looks to continue that momentum. The CD gets off to a strong start with a double dose of Keith's sharp wit. "I'm Just Talking About Tonight" tackles commitment-phobia in a light-hearted manner, while "I Wanna Talk About Me" is a rip roaring rapper (think "Getcha Some" on caffeine) about a guy tired of hearing his self-absorbed woman's raving. Keith settles down quite a bit thereafter, with some nice ballads detailing love in various stages: lost ("I Can't Take You Anywhere"), devoted ("You Leave Me Weak"), and struggling ("Tryin' To Matter"). Best of the lot is "The List," a gentle rumination about finding time for the important things in life. The ability to effectively blend sass and substance keeps Keith a couple of step ahead of the cookie-cut pack. How do I like you NOW? Just fine, Toby. Keep up the good work.


    5 out of 5 stars Toby Has Guts   March 16, 2002
     11 out of 11 found this review helpful

    I think this is one of Toby's better efforts in that he dares to put out songs a little different like "I Wanna Talk About Me". In a genre of music where today, girl singers mostly sneer at guys with attitude songs and the guy singers mostly sing schlocky, begging at her feet, love ballads, this is a nice change to see someone say what alot of guys really think in a humorous way without being afraid of ticking off anybody. "I'm just Talkin' About Tonight" is song that revisits the old now taboo theme of one night stands that used to be prevailent in country music. Whether you agree with it or not, it's still showing of Toby's daring, and gutsy choosing of songs. Also, Toby shows a liking of some southern rock style music with tunes like "Pull My Chain", "Pick "Em Up And Lay 'Em Down", and a bonus track about riding the rodeo that really rocks!
    But Toby also showed a little of his SENSITIVE side on here (obviously you gotta have 'em) with tunes like "My List", "Yesterday's Rain","You Didn't Have As Much To Lose" etc. Toby Keith is definitly showing he's in this for the long term as one of country music's most original and sustaining performers.



    5 out of 5 stars Toby Keith Has Done It Again   April 10, 2002
     11 out of 13 found this review helpful

    Hey everyone I have been a Toby Keith fan since Boomtown. I think the Toby is so very talented and his new CD tops it all. The songs on it just keep getting better. I thought I was impressed with his last CD, but he just keeps getting better. My favorite song on this album would have to be "The List." This song I feel captures the feelings that everyone goes through in life, especially right now with what is going on in our society. It reminds us to take the time and appreciate our life and all we have, and not be boggled down by all the little things. I also really do like "I Wanna Talk About Me," it is very fun song that talks to the male audience, which doesn't happen a lot in country music. Almost similar to what he did in the past with "A Little Less Talk and A Lot More Action" or "How Do you Like Me Know." There are so many other great songs on this CD, and I just can't wait to see what is next for Toby Keith he has become an amazing performer and musician.
