Grady Smith of '' Entertainment Weekly '' said that the album " continually showcases ... her writing prowess " because " Musgraves has a way of injecting humor into even her most melancholic musings . " At '' Paste '' , Holly Gleason noted Musgraves " sings unvarnished truths " while maintaining " the sunniness that is the right of the young " that is done " With a voice that ’s pretty , but brazen , Musgraves has no problem slinging attitude , crying bullshit or coyly advocating same-sex amour/dope-smoking while skewering hypocrisy . " In addition , Gleason saw this album as " a manifesto that 'll never come true , " which she asked the question " is dignity enough to get by on ? " , and her response was that by a " thin margin , but one Musgraves walks straight into the sunset . " Jody Rosen of '' Rolling Stone '' felt that , although Musgraves lacks a powerful singing voice , the album " showcases a songwriting voice you wo n't hear anywhere else in pop : young , female , downwardly mobile , fiercely witty . " David Burger of '' The Salt Lake Tribune '' vowed that the album " is not only intriguing vocally but engaging lyrically " . Taste of Country 's Billy Dukes commented that the album " is well-written , edgy ( yet familiar ) and coated in ' cool . ' " Jerry Shriver of '' USA Today '' said the songs are " honest with themselves and do n't wallow in self-pity " , and that Musgraves ' singing is " pretty and clear but usually unsentimental . " In December , '' Rolling Stone '' ranked '' Same Trailer Different Park '' number 28 on its list of the 50 best albums of 2013 . It won the Best Country Album award at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards in January 2014 .
