Lanibug, that is an amazing Terri Clark song- a real heartbreaker.

Written by Rory Feek

“Feeling more than a little frustrated by the music industry’s over analyzing of songs and singers… I wrote this song a few years ago just to vent. Until Joey decided to have us sing it at the audition for Can You Duet, I never really expected it to be heard by anyone, let alone be part of a record we would make. But here it is… the lead off track to our album. Our producer Carl Jackson absolutely loves this song. He says it’s our ‘Murder on Music Row.’ I don’t know about that… feels more like a small ‘stabbing on 16th Avenue’ to me, LOL Anyway, I get tired of hearing that song is ‘too country’ or ‘too serious’ or whatever. Hey, somebody just play the dang song. Let’s stop guessing what people want hear (and letting it effect what we write and record), and let them make up their own minds. Bet we’ll all be surprised by what we find out…

If your looking for a song that sums up the problem with the recording insustry and radio…
Look no futher.

The entire album is fantastic.

I kind of made it a point in my Favorite Songs by Favorite Artists segment on Linda Ronstadt that she is much more than just a “cover” singer, but here I recommend listening to hers and Ann Savoy’s take on “Walk Away Renee”, from their 2006 album ADIEU FALSE HEART. This was originally a Top Five pop hit for the Left Banke in October 1966, done in a baroque/pop version then; here, Linda and Ann adopt a folk/chamber approach that is quite delicate and very acoustic. It probably isn’t going to be for everybody, but if you’re adventurous enough, or already have this album, listen to this track closely.

“Let Somebody Else Drive”

I heard this old John Anderson song a couple weeks ago that I had not heard before and have been playing it ever since. I’ve always liked John Anderson’s stuff particularly his older stuff, but had never heard this one, probably because I was 3 when it came out. Check it out.

A song I have always liked — I wish He’d Been Drinkin’ Whiskey by Terri Clark — just popped up on my ipod on shuffle and she also seems to get forgotten and this is one of my favorites by her.

Sorry accidentily hit submit before I finished editing my post…

So yeah my recommendation is Mishavonna Henson “Edge Of The World”. It may not be for everybody but it’s a fun song, that I’d like to get people’s opinions on.
