Discussion: Recommend a Track
Friday, October 31st, 2008
Earlier this week, I’d planned on talking about an Iris Dement track for this weekly discussion thread. Then some poking around on iTunes led me to discover something else entirely.
I love iTunes because it helps me find random tracks by my favorite artists that I had no idea existed. One of the names I throw in the search engine from time to time is Olivia Newton-John, the first artist that I remember actually liking as a young child. Little did I know she’s been recording country music again, apparently for a television version of the Sordid Lives movie she was in a decade ago.
I’ve never seen the flick, but I picked up the movie soundtrack a while back. It included a stunning and heartfelt acoustic performance of the Carter Family classic “Will the Circle Be Unbroken.”
Tonight’s recommendation comes from the television show’s soundtrack, and while this song may not be a country classic yet, it certainly deserves to be. In fact, I’d like to see Carrie Underwood cut it for her next album.
I present to you Olivia Newton-John, “You Look Like a Dick to Me.”
Top that, Country Universians.
