Our Take

John Prine's "Common Sense" is a delightful mix of wry, observational lyrics and toe-tapping melodies that showcase the singer-songwriter's unique perspective on the world. With his trademark humour and poetic storytelling, Prine takes listeners on a journey through life's ups and downs, all set to a backdrop of Americana-infused folk-rock.

The album opens with the rollicking "Middle Man," a catchy tune that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Prine's witty wordplay shines through on tracks like "Come Back to Us Barbara Lewis Hare Krishna Beauregard," where he cheekily name-drops cultural icons over a groovy bassline.

But it's not all lighthearted fun on "Common Sense." Prine delves into deeper themes on songs like "Saddle in the Rain," a haunting ballad that explores the complexities of love and loss. His poignant storytelling and raw emotion make this track a standout on an already impressive album.

Overall, "Common Sense" is a triumph for John Prine, showcasing his unparalleled songwriting skills and musical chops. It's a must-listen for fans of folk, Americana, or anyone looking for a bit of wit and wisdom in their music collection. Prine proves once again why he's a legend in the music industry, and this album is further evidence of his enduring talent and charm.
