A Man Among Men

I'm pretty sad to report that my new favorite country band has long been disbanded. The Notorious Cherry Bombs (former just "The Cherry Bombs) are no longer. I'm not really one for too much Vince Gill, but in band form, he's pretty darn awesome. Rodney Crowell is the other lead singer of the only album they've recorded. I've got it blaring in the kitchen as we speak and I'm enjoying the piano and steele concotion they've got going on.


It's Hard to Kiss the Lips at Night That Chews Your Ass Out All Day Long


As you can probably guess, it is a funny song. But in no way is it really my favorite of the album.

These are a better representation :

(I posted the video just so you can hear the voice and get the vibe... it isn't official or anything)

Making Memories of Us - Unfortunately, I couldn't locate their version online. But, yes, it is the same song that Tracy Byrd sang originally and Keith Urban did a cover of. The Notorious Cherry Bombs covered it on their reunion album in 2004. The lyrics are good no matter who sings them!

I wanna sleep with you forver
I wanna die in your arms
in a cabin by a meadow
where the wild bees swarm

I'm gonna love you
like nobody loves you
I'll win your trust
making memories of us
