RISER Power Rankings

First off, Dierks Bentley's CD is all kinds of awesome and if you like good music, I highly recommend you download the whole thing.  Also, there is an awesome 22 minute behind the scenes look at the making of Riser that includes the birth of his son from the hospital on Fios On Demand under CMT.  Pretty adorable.  Finally, don't miss Dierks if he comes around.  He gave me my favorite show of the summer in a whirlwind of country shows that included: Luke, Keith, and Jake.

However, if you only want a taste, I recommend you download the songs in this order:

1.  Say You Do

Don't worry about the damage done

Just let those words roll off your tongue

Even if you're lyin'

If you really don't mean it, I don't care

If you need a little buzz to get you there

Then baby I'm buyin'

2.  Hurt Somebody

Girl, you're gonna hurt somebody

Make somebody bleed

Girl, you're gonna hurt somebody

God, I hope it's me

3.  Damn These Dreams

I remember hearin' Hank on the radio

The first time it felt like fallin' in love

Like seriously, how good is that lyric?  Love it.

4.  Five

You were all mine and I was all yours

Yeah, those are the days I miss

A ten minute ride, I could make it in five

5.  Bourbon in Kentucky (featuring Kacey Musgraves)

There ain't enough

Bourbon in Kentucky

For me to forget you

No there ain't enough

Matches I can strike

To set afire the memory of you
