Have I mentioned how sexy I find Gary Allan? The scruff, the hat, and most of all, that gravelly country voice. Songs About Rain is a modern country song with an old time, classic feel. It paints such a picture to me–I can see Gary driving around in a beat-up pickup truck, all the lights red, all the stores closed, all his dreams dashed. And all the songs coming through his radio just rubbing it in.
First time I have heard this song, and I agree with you, it does have an old time country appeal with the modern edge to it. Gary Allan does have a unique voice, I also like the gravelly appeal of it. After listening to this song and really enjoying it all I can say is “Poor guy”!
Another great song chosen, I wonder if Gary and this song will be mentioned in your latest book in some sly way?
