Alan Jackson’s breathtaking performance of “Remember When” at the ACM Awards on May 8 was a testament to the transformative power of music. As he prepares to embark on his final tour and faces health challenges that are forcing him to retire, this song was more than just a melody – it was a love letter to his life, legacy, and loved ones. With simple yet profound stage design, featuring soft blue lighting and heartwarming home videos, every note resonated deeply. As he sang about growing old with his wife Denise and raising their family, his words inspired hope and gratitude. His voice cracked with emotion at the end, and it was clear – this was a moment that transcended music. It was a celebration of life, love, and the impact one person can have on the world. He later received the Lifetime Achievement Award, but the truth is, he had already won the hearts of everyone in attendance. ❤️❤️

In 1978, CBS producers asked Waylon Jennings to come up with a theme song that would explain The Dukes of Hazzard. Waylon had already narrated the “Moonrunners” movie, as well as the Dukes of Hazzard pilot episode at this point, so he understood the heart of the show. Waylon penned the “Good ol’ Boys” theme in short order, creating one of the best-known and best-loved show themes in television history. When it was released to radio in 1980, “Good ol’ Boys” flew to #1 on the Billboard country music chart. It reached #21 on the pop chart, and stayed in airplay rotation for several months. The song propelled Waylon into superstar status, and became a cornerstone of his legacy.

The relationship between George Strait and the talented songwriter Dean Dillon is one of the most successful and enduring collaborations in country music history. Dean Dillon penned many of the hits that made Strait’s name, including his debut single, “Unwound.” The story of the song “Unwound” is also an interesting anecdote. Initially, Dillon intended to give the song to another artist, but it ultimately ended up with a then-unknown “young cowboy from Texas” named George Strait. The song became a major hit, paving the way for Strait’s legendary career. Dean Dillon once shared that George Strait “changed his life forever.” He said, “What a friendship, what a musical marriage. There are no words to express my deepest gratitude for the magical voice you brought to my music.” For his part, George Strait has always held absolute respect and admiration for Dillon. He once said of how Dillon presents his compositions: “The best way to hear a Dean Dillon song is when he plays it for you live. I love the way he sings. He puts so much emotion into these songs, and when he sings them to you, it really touches your heart. It’s very hard to turn him down, and I think he knows that.”

George Strait: The Cowboy Who Never Changed Long before the fame, George Strait was just a Texas cowboy with a voice full of heart — and decades later, that’s still who he is. He doesn’t chase the spotlight. He rides in on horseback, tips his hat, and sings the kind of country that’s lived, not performed. From dusty rodeo grounds to sold-out arenas, George never blurred the line between cowboy and country singer — he became the bridge. 60 #1 hits, countless ovations, but what truly crowns him King of Country? The simple truth: he stayed real, stayed rooted, and let the music speak like only a true cowboy can.

“I’m not done yet!” — George Strait just announced a surprise new tour, and fans are losing their minds. At 73, many thought the “King of Country” would quietly fade into the past. But no — he’s coming back with a tour that insiders are calling “the emotional final ride of country music.” New songs. Never-before-seen stage design. And a heartfelt tribute to friends and colleagues who have passed, which reportedly brought Strait himself to tears during rehearsals. Is this his farewell? A rebirth? Or both? One thing’s for sure — tickets are disappearing faster than ever, and fans are calling it “the most emotional setlist of his career.” If you miss this tour, you’ll be missing history.

This is such a beautiful, deeply touching truth — and deserves to be told with the same quiet grace that defines George and Norma Strait’s love. 🤠 Did You Know? George & Norma Strait’s Love Story Defies Time From high school sweethearts in Pearsall, Texas, to a quiet wedding in Mexico in 1971 — George and Norma Strait have shared over 53 years of love. They’ve weathered life’s highs and lows, including the heartbreaking loss of their daughter Jenifer in 1986. Yet through it all, their bond has never wavered. No flashy headlines. Just shared sunsets, quiet dinners, and songs filled with real love. Because to George, family always comes first — and love, when it’s true, lasts longer than any song.
