What a classic! As a Minnesotan, I know her people, true America! A true creative Midwestern talent! Hope the Midwest survives the current national turmoil!!
I will forever remember the first time I heard this song. They used to do two new songs against each other every night on the radio and you'd vote for the winner and it would take on the next challenger. I'd always record them on my cassette player in case they vanished. I wore the tape out on this one! That song was the champion for so long, they retired it from the competition. Oh, how I wanted to be even half the songwriter Matraca is.
She seems to he the Hank Williams of female songwriters. They called him the Hillbilly Shakespeare. She is right up there with him 👍. I'm glad I've learned who she is so she can get credit for all these great songs
I was just thinking when I 'skipped' Eat at Joe's how I don't like Matraca's '"hit's" ! I have 5 of her CD's and this is another of her 'hit's I don't like.... {I Luvvvvvv "Back in the Saddle"...... } Think she sing's her song's better than anyone else..... Love her voice. X X X..... Great song writer.....
Oh...to hear the history of the song...to know the heartfelt genesis of the feelings put to words by Matraca Berg...is so intimate... honest and fresh...a rare pleasure for this old man's heart...and I remember September apart....
Have loved Matraca's work for over 30 years -- she's the best! Trisha -- wow, shes the best interpreter of those songs, and has more taste and class than many of today's trashy pop-music ding-dongs...

One of country’s greatest songwriters.

Bluebird cafe, omg, so cool beans. The show was just as good waiting in line, as inside.
1982... Good year...for rock music. C&W went to C&...history is still out on this.

When Matraca married The Dirt band's Jeff Hana in 1993, they had to be the best-looking bride and groom on the planet.
Mountain music
Is that Sara Evans with big hair? I love Matraca Berg,
WHY? DO I have to look at and hear DEMENTIA BIDEN, in order to hear good music on YOU TUBE?
Ms Berg is a Biden supporter, so....
I'm guessing you'd prefer to look at Donald "Mussolini" Trump.
