7/25/2023 2 Comments Lyrics to wine beer whiskey“This is a song about that special person in your life that is there for you no matter what. The lyrics “you keep me strong when I can't carry on” in particular is a message that everyone needs right now – the knowledge that they aren't alone – and that's exactly what this quartet delivers. The Irish quartet dropped their new album this past Friday, June 12. Next up is a new single from this group, keeping up the momentum they've built with recent popular tracks. Here's the inimitable Trace Adkins with “Mind On Fishin'”: The new summer tune is the first taste of what we can expect from his upcoming EP, due out later this year. I'd rather be on a lake with my mind on God / In the middle of his creation / In an old john boat with my zebco rod / For some private conversation / There might be a few people talking bad about me / When they see that I'm a missin' / But I'd rather be on a lake with my mind on God / Than in church with my mind on fishin' Why? Because he's sitting on the lake enjoying the beauty of nature and getting in some fishing. Turns out the guy never makes the service. Graham's wife and daughter can be seen saving him a seat at church, fully expecting him to show up. As shots of the artist singing by the lake are interspersed throughout, the women who play T. Graham headed out to the lake to get in some fishing in, with hopes of making it to Sunday service afterwards. The video kicks off with the artist's unmistakable baritone vocals saying, “Let her go boys.” The song, co-written by one of my favorite writers, Wynn Varble, along with Aaron Raitiere, humorously tells the story of a struggle we have all faced a time or two.” “As a man who still likes to fish about every evening, ‘' is very relatable to me. This new song tells the story of a guy who would rather be on the lake thinking about God than in Sunday service thinking about fishing. Have you ever been lured to the lake on a Sunday morning? Then you'll want to keep an eye out for this artist, who probably isn't going to make the 10 o' clock sermon either. Here's Brantley Gilbert with “Hard Days”: I feel like all of us are in need of a little bit of healing and in need of a little bit of hope. Brock Berryhill, Logan Wall, Jimi Bell and Jay Brunswick gave me the opportunity to work with them, and it's something I'm extremely proud to be a part of. It's been a long time since I've heard a song that can stand on its own lyrically. However, the song concludes with a message of perseverance. The lyrics convey those raw emotions of hitting rock bottom or carrying a burden - which are timely, of course, yet also timeless. Of course, the state of the world has changed significantly since then. The standalone single isn't included on his newest album, which was released in early October. I look back on some of the harder times in my life and think about where things are now, and I'm thankful for the bad that led to the good.” “‘' is about finding and acknowledging hope in the midst of turmoil and taking the good with the bad. It's a thoughtful message that especially suits these times where listeners may be looking for progress and purpose. Next up is a song that offers hope, an encouraging new single about facing the challenges of life and emerging as a stronger person. Get ready to dance, here's Little Big Town with “Wine, Beer, Whiskey”: You can do what you want and let people go on the journey with you. If we don't show the lighthearted spirit of the band that just likes to have a good time, then we wouldn't be fully showing our personalities. “The thing about the band is we do like to talk about things that are important, but we also try not to take ourselves too seriously. The raucous Mexicali-flavored jam finds the group paying homage to some of their friends, including Jack Daniels, Jose Cuervo and captain morgan. So at the end of that, we literally offered our co-writers wine, beer, or whiskey and one of them started singing, ‘The wine, the beer, the…' We're like, ‘Damn, that's hooky,' and 30 minutes later, we had written a silly song about drinking.” “We had just written ‘Problem Child,' which was such a serious song, and there was just this heaviness. Let's start with a foot-stomping drinking anthem came as a fun moment of levity for the band during a writing session, and was completed in half an hour. Meanwhile, it's Monday, so that means music – let's lose ourselves in some tunes for a bit, shall we? This week is a freebie week, so grab your favorite tune(s), and come dance with us, won't you? Let's get this party started! I know I've said it before, but it's worth repeating. Can you believe we're now halfway through June? 2020 is simultaneously crawling at a snail's pace, yet flying by… sort of.
