Despite its lighthearted title, Blake Shelton's 2007 album, PURE BS, finds the Oklahoma-born country singer tempering his rollicking, humorous tunes (see "Some Beach," from BLAKE SHELTON'S BARN & GRILL) with a considerable number of introspective numbers. Of course, Shelton is no stranger to serious fare, as BARN & GRILL's poignant "I Drink" ably proved, but BS's lovelorn lead single, "Don't Make Me," sets the tone of the record, signaling a more mature direction for the charismatic performer. Even though the record marks a greater focus on thoughtful ballads, admirers of the young vocalist's more carefree numbers aren't left out in the cold, as the winking opener "This Can't Be Good" makes clear.
