专辑歌曲1.Not Me 专辑介绍At a time when the fighting in Iraq brings out more pain than patriotism in a majority of vocal Americans, Keni Thomas--a smooth-voiced Georgia musician and former Army member of Task Force Ranger, sent into the Mogadishu of Black Hawk Down--steps forward with a collection of songs that restore the poignancy and eloquence of the good fight. Never bombastic in the vein of Toby Keith nor rabble-rousing à la Darryl Worley, Thomas--who wrote or cowrote all 10 tracks with an ear for classic country and rock--simply tells the stories of the men and women in uniform. 'Not Me,' which boasts no less than Vince Gill and Emmylou Harris on harmony vocals, is an eloquent and understated paean to leadership and courage, while 'Circle on the Cross,' featuring a spoken introduction by Kenny Rogers, spotlights a military marking worth remembering. Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Michael McDonald, Blackhawk, and Shawn Mullins also lend their efforts to this surprising, affecting project. (Proceeds partly benefit the Hero Fund and the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, which provide college tuition to the children of Special Ops personnel who die in training or combat.) --Alanna Nash
