crazychicknlady | Three Wooden Crosses by Randy Travis

My favorite Country Station right now is the one I have streaming through my laptop. It's almost local to me, and I can generally pick up the station when I'm driving, but from home I get too much static on my little silver radios. It plays a very wide variety, modern country all the way back to stuff released before I was born (but the sort of stuff I grew up listening to, because it was my Mom's country), and everything in between. So, when a Randy Travis song came up I wasn't surprised. The thing is, it wasn't one I'd heard before, and for some reason it hit me very strongly when I listened to it this morning.

So I googled it. When I saw the release date was 2002, I realized why I hadn't heard it before. It was recent. Well, more recent than my memories of his songs from 20-25 years ago, anyway.

After looking for a video to embed here, I have come to the conclusion that everyone else has probably already heard this song. I guess I was a little too busy back in 2003 to be paying much attention to the CMA awards.
