    This was hard, especially choosing Colder Weather, since I’m constantly changing my mind about whether I like it more than As She’s Walking Away. Plus, choosing just one Strait album is hard enough…

  13. “You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive” – Patty Loveless (Mountain Soul)

    “Elephant” – Jason Isbell (Southeastern) – Or is it Cover Me Up? Stockholm? Traveling Alone? Live Oak? Songs That She Sang in the Shower? Gosh, this IS hard.

    1. “Tell Me,” Sara Evans (Real Fine Place)
    2. “Nobody To Blame,” Chris Stapleton (Traveller)
    3. “Airstream Song,” Miranda Lambert (Revolution)
    4. “All I Ever Do,” Lori McKenna (Lorraine)
    5. “High Time” or “Fine” or “Late To the Party,” Kacey Musgraves (Pageant Material) This one roves around constantly – almost all the songs have been my favorite on one day or another!
