Again, this woman can sing ANYTHING.
Kelly Clarkson covered Sophie B. Hawkins’s hit “Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover” and, naturally, she killed it.
Enjoy:
I love that she put a bit of a rock spin on this song… seriously, is there anything she can’t sing?
I really want to hear cover Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters”.
Let’s make this happen!

Alan Jackson, that you?
Zach Top- one of the most promising up-and coming Country artists that actually sounds like (gasp!) Country- just dropped the official Summer Country banger.
It’s called “Good Times and Tan Lines” and it’s almost a carbon copy of Alan Jackson’s 90’s Summer Smash “Chattahoochie” and that’s not a bad thing.
Enjoy:
Such a fun song, and again, total Alan Jackson vibes, and that’s ok.
Country music needs more of this.
Zach Top’s new album “Ain’t In it For My Health” drops August 29th.
Oh, and last year, I had the chance to interview Zach right before he blew up, and he’s an absolute doll.
I am so happy for all of his success… well deserved!

Every Friday, new music for the week drops.
I’ve been digging through it, and I have to say, this Rascal Flatts/Carly Pearce collab on Rascal Flatts 2006 hit “My Wish” is really, really good.
I’ll be honest, I haven’t been a huge Rascal Flatts fan- except for some of their earlier stuff, but this version of “My Wish” got my attention:
I love me some Carly Pearce, and damn, Gary LeVox can sing like crazy. Hence why he changed his last name from Vernon to “LeVox” which means “The Voice” in Old French.
Well, that’s subtle.
Anyhow, out of all the new music that came out this past Friday, this was the song that caught my attention.
Rascal Flatts “Life is a Highway: Refueled Duets” is out now.

I love a good cover, and Country Super Star Luke Combs definitely delivered on his take on the massive Teddy Swims hit “Lose Control”.
Check it out below:
Dammnnnn sonnnnn…
Is there anything this man can’t sing?
Those vocal riffs are fire.
Can we have an actual recorded version of this song? Or… better yet… a collab with Teddy Swims?
Universe, make it happen.

Who doesn’t like a good Power Ballad?
Ultimateclassicrock.com just ranked the “50 Greatest Power Ballads in Rock History”, and here’s their Top 10:
1. “Purple Rain”, Prince (1984)
2. “Alone”, Heart (1987)
3. “November Rain”, Guns N’ Roses (1991)
4. “Don’t Stop Believin'”, Journey (1981)
5. “I Want to Know What Love Is”, Foreigner (1984)
6. “Home Sweet Home”, Motley Crue (1985)
7. “Dream On”, Aerosmith (1973)
8. “I’d Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That)”, Meat Loaf (1993)
9. “Sister Christian”, Night Ranger (1983)
10. “Heaven”, Bryan Adams (1983)
Pretty solid Top 10, right?
However, “Nothing Else Matter” by Metallica only ranking #50 is totally suspect, as is Bon Jovi’s “Never Say Goodbye” and Cinderella’s “Nobody’s Fool” not being on the list.
I mean, what the Hell, Mel?

One of my favorite creators- “There I Ruined It” just dropped another banger.
Ever wonder what Lil’ Wayne’s “Lollipop” would sound like in the style of The Mamas and The Papas “California Dreamin”?
No?
Well, here you go anyway.
It’s something to behold:

A true masterpiece for the ages.

Miley Cyrus is unstoppable.
Her new album “Something Beautiful” dropped this morning, and so far, what I’ve heard is pretty damn fantastic.
Her new single is a freaking jam- check out “Easy Lover” below:
Honestly, I was hoping it would be a cover of Phil Collins and Phillip Bailey’s “Easy Lover”, but alas, it’s not.
Remember this gem?
Anyhow, Miley’s “Easy Lover” is almost just as catchy, and I can’t wait to hear the rest of the album today.
Again, I’ll admit that I barely tolerated Miley for the better part of a decade, but she has completely proven herself as one hell of a pop artist and vocalist.
Oh, and her album has a movie to go with it, and will be in theaters one night only on June 12th.
Here’s the trailer:
I low key want to see this…
Miley is KILLING it!

Well, Lainey Wilson done did it again.
She proved why she is the ACM Entertainer of the Year for the 2nd year in a row with her performance of her new song “Somewhere Over Laredo” at the American Music Awards last night, and in my humble opinion, it was one of the best performances on the show…
Now, that’s how it’s done. No lip synching, no back-up dancers or overtly sexual moves… (Sorry, J Lo… )
Just talent, a good song, and a stunning performance.
“Somewhere Over Laredo” is off of Lainey Wilson’s deluxe version of her latest album “Whirlwind” and will be out August 22nd.
Uncategorized
Lainey Wilson just released a new song, and it’s probably one of my favorites of hers so far…
It’s called “Somewhere Over Laredo”, and it’s inspired by the “Wizard of Oz” classic “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”, yet it takes on a whole new life of it’s own.
Enjoy:
So, it looks like this song will be off of Lainey’s deluxe version of her latest album “Whirlwind”, which comes out August 22nd.
I love it, and I have a feeling that Lainey is just getting started.
She may end up being one of the “Mount Rushmore” Country artists of the future.
I wouldn’t be surprised at all.

Well, THIS was a pleasant surprise today…
Chris Stapleton just dropped his contribution to the “F-1” movie soundtrack called “Bad As I Used to Be” and it’s a total groove.
Enjoy!
I have always loved the blusey-rock sound, and this song has ALL of it!
Of course, you can never go wrong with Chris Stapleton.
EVER.
“F-1”- starring Brad Pitt- hits theaters on June 27th, and the buzz is strong.
The soundtrack comes out the same day, and I’m hoping for more bangers like this on it!
