If you only know Billy Currington from "Party For Two," his hit duet with Shania Twain, you need to expand your horizons and check out his 2003 self-titled debut and this latest gem, which reveal what Currington is really capable of vocally and stylistically.

DOIN' SOMETHIN' RIGHT opens and closes with foot stompers ("I Wanna Be A Hillbilly," "She Knows What To Do With A Saturday Night") which will have you dancing in the streets (or at least at your local honkytonk). It between, we get a somewhat gentler Billy, with the title track/lead off single providing a relaxed yet heartfelt delivery, and a lusty "Little Bit Lonely" plus "Here I Am" showcasing incredible charisma.

"Good Directions" is the type of down home, good ol' boy number that Kenny Chesney succeeds with (again and again and again). Billy's remake of "Lucille" is a nice update, hitting a little harder than Kenny Rogers' original, while a collaboration with Michael McDonald on "She's Got A Way With Me" offers a power ballad change of pace.

Hopefully, this diverse collection will elevate Billy to the next level on the country music food chain. It's a fine effort that clearly avoids the sophomore jinx.

I like one or two of Billy Currington's first songs; however, I think his duet w/ Shania Twain actually hurt him. This CD compiles a great mix of songs - good country twang with a little motown, fast and slower paced songs.
I have gotten more discriminating in CD purchasing since I can simply download songs I really like as opposed to shelling out $12-15 for a mediocre CD, but I got hooked on Doing Something Right and had to have this CD. I have not regretted the purchase. Usually I only end up liking one or two songs on a CD but this CD is great overall.
I can only hope that Billy Currington will release more songs off this CD - Good Directions, She's Got a Way with Me.

Received my cd in the mail this past week and I haven't been able to stop listening to it! This is a great CD and every song is awesome! The current release "Must Be Doin Somethin Right" is a great song and Billy's voice sounds incredible. This CD has it all - from slow & sexy to rockin songs! For me a stand out song is a song that Billy co-wrote with Michael McDonald called "She's Got a Way With Me". Michael also sings background vocals on this song and he and Billy's voice sound great together! Other great songs are Hillbilly, Good Directions, Little Bit Lonely, Whole Lot More, Here I Am, She Knows What to Do with a Saturday Night!!! I highly recommend this CD, you won't be sorry that you bought it!

P.S. And the only thing better than listening to the CD is hearing Billy perform the songs live! Go see him when he comes to your town - you won't be disappointed!!

I just got this CD today and I absolutely LOVE IT! Billy's first self titled CD now has competition! LOL I love all the songs including the first single "Must be Doin Something Right." Some of my other favorites are "I wanna be a Hillbilly," "Whole Lot More Where I come from" and "She's got a way with me" I just love love love that song, his voice is so sexy! If you do not have this CD I recommend you go buy it this instant! It is definetely a must have!

Billy Curringtons' second CD has been a long time coming and well worth the wait! His variety of sounds, Soul as in She's got a way with me, country twang as his remake of Lucille and a rock and roll as in Hillbily make for a fantastic combination of songs that everyone will enjoy. I recomend Billy's new CD! You will not be dissapointed!

If you love country music this CD is a must have. Many of todays country artists are turning to more pop like tunes but on Billy Currington's second Cd he stayed true to his Georgia roots. Must Be Doin Somethin Right, the single release is awesome but then so are the other 10 songs on this CD. I especially like Good Directions, Why Why Why, Little Bit Lonely and Whole Lot More. She's Got A way With Me, written with Michael McDonald is a top ten hit in itself. Several of the songs on the CD are ones he's been doing in his live show for some time now so it's nice to finally have them on a disc. This CD is incredible and so is Billy. Go see him live, you'll see for yourself that Billy is Doin Somethin Right.

"Must be doing something right" is one of the sexiest songs I have ever heard. I bought the cd for that song. Billy Currington has a beautiful voice and the rest of the cd is great. I mostly hit repeat on that one song and just enjoy. It is worth buying.

As is always the case with me, I hear a song, fall in love with it, and then I just have to own it! When I bought this CD, I was primarily interested in the hit, "Good Directions", so imagine my surprise when I found several other of my favorite songs on this album, as well! As a woman from Hollywood, though, "Good Directions" is by far my favorite song on the CD.

Country fan or not, cutesy as this song may be to some critics or not, I absolutely love it!

Good job, Billy!!!

I enjoyed 9 out of 11 tracks from Billy Currington's "Doin' Somethin' Right" cd. The tracks are great. They make you want to dance, it has romantic tracks, and lots of feel good music that totally makes listening to music while driving in traffic fun! Yes! Fun! Billy's new release showcases his amazing voice! He has so much range. His voice is just right. Most cds I've bought I become totally disappointed but NOT this one. Buy it! It's worth it!

I bought this CD the second it hit the shelves and havent stopped playing it since!! It's great!! He is so talented and has a great vocal range. He wrote or co-wrote 4 songs on this CD and is taleneted at that as well. He has a variety of songs ranging from fun and upbeat to ballads, including one with Michael McDonald that is just wonderful! Their voices compliment each other and sounds great! I highly recommend buying this CD and if you dont have his first CD that is a great buy too!
