There was a country music-oriented episode of Cold Case several years ago that featured several songs by Tim McGraw (IIRC, one of them was "I Got Friends That Do").

I'll admit, I liked Cold Case. They had some great tunes in that song including a criminally under-rated version of Larry Bagby's "Counting My Lucky Stars". The episode had a duet, his solo version is great. m.youtube.com/watch?v=va4LKM0q6EA |

"Buddy" - Willie Nelson (Parks and Recreation, Leslie and Ron and One Last Ride) Gosh, this one...I'm a major Parks & Rec fan and even though I'm not a Willie Nelson fan really, the fact the Ron Swanson loves the song makes me respect it. Also, the way it's used in the finale...just perfect. |

I've been slowly working my way through The Sopranos for the first time (better late than never am I right), and I heard this kickass Emmylou Harris tune called "Heaven Only Knows" in the first episode of the fifth season.

I've been slowly working my way through The Sopranos for the first time (better late than never am I right), and I heard this kickass Emmylou Harris tune called "Heaven Only Knows" in the first episode of the fifth season. Heaven Only Knows was the final top 40 hit of Emmylou Harris' career in 1989. I'd like to thank you for reintroducing it to me. Heard it back then and love it now. Here's the chart where she placed in the top twenty: BILLBOARD TOP TWENTY FOR WEEK ENDING JULY 15, 1989: 1. In A Letter To You-Eddy Raven-Universal 2. What's Going On In Your World-George Strait-MCA 3. Cathy's Clown-Reba McEntire-MCA 4. Houston Solution-Ronnie Milsap-RCA 5. She's Got A Single Thing In Mind-Conway Twitty-MCA 6. One Good Well-Don Williams-RCA 7. Why'd You Come In Here Lookin' Like That-Dolly Parton-Columbia 8. Much Too Young To Feel This Damn Old-Garth Brooks-Capitol 9. You Ain't Going Nowhere-Chris Hillman and Roger McGuinn-Universal 10. Dear Me-Lorrie Morgan-RCA 11. More Than A Name On A Wall-Statler Brothers-Mercury 12. Timber, I'm Falling In Love-Patty Loveless-MCA 13. Lovin' Only Me-Ricky Skaggs-Epic 14. Sunday In The South-Shenandoah-Columbia 15. Love Has No Right-Billy Joe Royal-Atlantic America 16. HEAVEN ONLY KNOWS-EMMYLOU HARRIS-REPRISE 17. Are You Ever Gonna Love Me-Holly Dunn-Warner Bros. 18. Up And Gone-the McCarters-Warner Bros. 19. Any Way The Wind Blows-Southern Pacific-Warner Bros. 20. Come From The Heart-Kathy Mattea-Mercury |

Yup lol! It's funny, because I just got into the show this year, and I was surprised at some of the country songs that were either mentioned or just sung by Al in a moment to recall his glory days. There was a mention of Glen Campbell somewhere in the 2nd season, but I can't think of why lol. |
