I was listening to this song the other day and I was thinking, this is pretty much a country song but because it's by a pop singer, it got airplay on pop (well, Hot AC) radio in Canada. I wonder if it got any country support at all?
Anyway, Damhnait is from Newfoundland and is part of the trio (now duo) Shaye, who have had two albums. Damhnait herself had three and this song was the hit from her most recent CD from 2003.
I also just realized that it was written (co-written?) by Gordie Sampson, another Canadian east coaster who also co-wrote 'Jesus Take The Wheel' as well as a bunch of other songs for country artists over the last couple of years, hence the country influence on this track.
I thought the connection was interesting. Damhnait sounds great in this song as well!
