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.
I was so excited to hear this new single, and be brought back to the Eric Church of a few years back.
His new single “Hands of Time” is perfect.
Enjoy:
Here’s the full lyrics:
“Hands Of Time”
“Detroit built brakes so that they could make a Chevy slow down
And a just-right midnight sorry might turn goodbye around
Bloody Marys and aspirin will give a hangover one hell of a fight
But my remedy for handling the hands of time
Is Seger singing “Hollywood Nights”
Even the losers get lucky sometimes
A paradise by the dashboard light
And I’m just fine, I’m doing alright
We ain’t as young as we used to be
But young at heart is so easy
When you let some loud guitars and words that rhyme
Handle the hands of time
My go-to game day jersey’s always Carolina blue
When I need to find forgiveness, I find a little small town church pew, yeah
After work I like to put my elbows up on a bar
And girl, I turn to the speakers when I need to speak to this ol’ heart
And it’s “Back In Black,” “Shook Me All Night Long”
“Could You Be Loved,” “Redemption Song”
“Luckenbach,” “Home Sweet Home”
I’m “Where I Belong,” “Ain’t Nothing Wrong,” yeah
We ain’t as young as we used to be
But young at heart is so easy
When you let some loud guitars and words that rhyme
Handle the hands of time
Hands of time
Tryin’ to hang on as the song rolls
Like gravity pulls on the grains of sand
We take our licks, life takes its toll
We say thanks and we fold our hands
And it’s “Amazing Grace,” how sweet the sound (“Amazing Grace”)
Sunday morning coming down
Tuesday’s gone, green grass of home (Tuesday’s gone)
I come to the garden alone, yeah
We ain’t as young as we used to be
But until under that willow you bury me
I’m gonna turn up some loud guitars
Turn up some loud guitars
(Turn it up loud) Turn up some loud guitars
(Turn it up) Crank some loud guitars
Crank up some loud guitars (Turn it up, turn it up now)
Wanna hear some loud guitars (Turn it up, turn it up now)
I’m gonna let some loud guitars and words that rhyme
(Turn it up, turn it up now, turn it up)
Handle the hands of time”
Oh, hell yes.
That’s one of the great things about music. It can always handle the “Hands of Time”.
The song is off of his new album “Evangeline Vs. The Machine”, and you can get info, tour dates, all that good stuff at https://www.ericchurch.com/
Earlier this morning, Sabrina Carpenter dropped the deluxe version of her Grammy Award winning album “Short n’ Sweet”, and it features a remake of her hit song “Please, Please, Please” with none other than the ICONIC Dolly Parton on it!
And of course, it’s stinking adorable.
Aaaahhh! LOVE it!
And I love the reference to Sabrina’s ex- actor Barry Keoghan- at the end.
Perfect.
And in case you missed it, here’s Sabrina’s full 2025 Grammy Award performance. It finally got released to YouTube:
I freaking love her.
Again, her deluxe version of “Short n’ Sweet” is out now, and I highly suggest you check her out if you’re not up on how awesome she is!
Teddy Swims became majorly mainstream in the past couple of years, thanks to his massive hit “Lose Control” which was (and still is) everywhere. And he proved that he’s no one-hit wonder with more hits like “The Door” and “Bad Dreams”, which are also getting major airplay. His sound is perfect- incredible bluesy rock vocals that seem to have no limit, plus great, catchy songs that pretty much everyone can enjoy. I always say that he’s what would happen if Chris Stapleton and Jelly Roll had a baby.
Anyhow, Teddy has a new album out called “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2)” and here’s the new single off of it called “Guilty”:
Pretty damn good, right?
Teddy’s vocals are in another universe.
Yeah, this guy isn’t going anywhere, and that’s a good thing.
I have a feeling that 2025 is going to be Meghan Patrick’s year.
Now, Meghan, hailing from Ontario, has been on the scene for quite some time, and has been getting a lot of attention as of late for her gritty and real Country sound.
She released her album “Golden Child” back in October, and the title track has cracked the Mediabase Top 50, and I have a feeling you will be hearing a lot more of it on your radio soon.
Check out “Golden Child” below:
Pretty dang good, am I right?
Here are the full lyrics:
“If I could send a letter back in time To younger me in her wilder days A daydreamer with her head in the sky And always learning the hard way
I bet she’d think she knows better than me But that’s just part of her charm Nah, you couldn’t tell her anything Nothing stubborn as her and her heart But I’d tell her while you’re reaching for the stars
Just be careful what you wish for honey You never know it might come true Don’t be tempted by the easy money It might cost more than you’re willing to lose The same thing that takes the edge off It can take the shine off after a while So wear your diamonds on the inside ‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, child
They’re gonna love you for the things you do But not for who you are So don’t go trading in your ride or dies For the cool kids down at the bar
The time will come when you fall in lust And it’ll look like love Until it knocks you right down in the dust But know that you’ll get back up Yeah, know that you’re more than enough
Just be careful what you wish for honey You never know it might come true Don’t be tempted by the easy money It might cost more than you’re willing to lose (ah) The same thing that takes the edge off It can take the shine off after a while So wear your diamonds on the inside (inside) ‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, child, ooh-ooh
Just be careful what you wish for honey You never know it might come true Don’t be tempted by the easy money It might cost more than you’re willing to lose (ah) The same thing that takes the edge off It can take the shine off after a while So wear your diamonds on the inside (inside) ‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, child Everything that glitters ain’t golden, child, ooh-ooh
If I could send a letter back in time To younger me in her wilder days I’d let her know that she’s doing just fine And everything’s gonna be okay”
Songwriters: Joey Hyde / Aaron James Eshuis / Meghan Sylvia Patrick
Seriously, though, such a great song, and I can definitely relate.
Heck, I think anyone who has lived just a litle bit of life can.
As I mentioned earlier, I have a strong feeling that 2025 is going to be her year… get ready!
Morgan Wallen just dropped a new single called “Smile”, and I think it may be one of my favorites of his.
Written by Morgan, Ernest, Rocky Block, John Byron, Ryan Vojtezak and Luis Witkiewitz, I have a feeling this will be another #1 hit.
Because, like it or not, that’s all Morgan Wallen seems capable of producing these days.
Damn.
What I like about this song- aside from the sound and subject matter- is that it really shows of what a good vocalist Morgan is, which can sometimes be hidden with other hits like “Last Night” and “I Had Some Help”.
This definitely bodes well for more solid stuff in 2025.
And now this will be in my head all day, which isn’ a bad thing.
