Urban's "You'll Think of Me" was the best breakup song of the year in any genre, a carefully detailed evisceration of a petulant ex. He turns the cruel lens on himself with "The Hard Way," the starkest track on Be Here. His fifth album's main fault: Most of it is saddled by stubbornly traditional country-rock arrangements ("Days Go By," "Better Life") that worked for, say, John Mellencamp, but that Urban doesn't quite have the gravel pipes to roughen up.
