Lucky Old Sun

Since 2002's NO SHOES, NO SHIRT, NO PROBLEMS, Kenny Chesney has slowly transformed himself from a standard Nashville country crooner into something more unexpected: a 21st-century Jimmy Buffett, as interested in Caribbean rhythms, Florida sunshine, and the steady rhythm of the ocean waves as he is in traditional country-music storytelling. LUCKY OLD SUN continues Chesney's paeans to life on the beach, with highlights including the first single "Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven," "That Lucky Old Sun (Just Rolls Around Heaven All Day)," a duet with the equally laid-back Willie Nelson, the clever "The Key's in the Conch Shell," and the soaring opener, "I'm Alive," with a guest appearance by Dave Matthews. LUCKY OLD SUN is also available in a special limited Deluxe Edition, which includes a second disc that includes four live tracks and two music videos, one for the single "Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven" and one that was used as the pre-show introduction on Chesney's 2008 "Poets and Pirates" tour.
