Craig Morgan - "Almost Home"

[sabre14]

Craig's first top 10 single at country radio from 2003. It's famous for being the first single in the modern era to be sent recurrent on Billboard during its chart run, only to reappear on the chart the following week and eventually make its way all the way to #8 on Billboard, and #7 on R&R in June of 2003. This was also one of the best written songs IMO released to country radio since I've been alive. Craig wrote the song with Kerry Kurt Phillips. It won Craig and Kerry the "Song Of The Year" award from BMI in 2003.

Heard this on the radio for the first time in years. One of the best songs of all time, musically and lyrically. Such a tear-jerker.

I love this song.
