Though he name drops Beaumont in "Blame It on Texas," it's songs like "It's A Little Too Late" where Chesnutt really pays homage to his East Texasroots. There's a little bit of Louisiana home cooking rhythm nestled in the mix. It creates a nice up-tempo chug for Chesnutt to deliver his neo-traditional country croon.
Released in '97, Chesnutt's "Thank God For Believers" finds him exhaling and slowing things down. It takes place after one of these late nights of rambling and boozing. Even though his wife is understanding and faithful, he realizes there are still consequences to it all. He ends it sitting in a church pew trying to see things from her point of vie...
Few epitomized the working class man in the '90s quite like Chesnutt. Like Joe Diffie and Travis Tritt, it felt as though Chesnutt could have had a regular 9 to 5 at a construction site or warehouse. His '93 hit "It Sure Is Monday" was the perfect summed up that rush of anxiety that happens on Monday mornings after a wild weekend of too much partyi...
Released in '02, "She Was" was Chesnutt's final Top 20 hit. It's quite the turn from the vast majority of his hits in the '90s. Here, he steps in and slows things down as he narrates the full life of his mother. Time and again, he reveals the young woman in each verse is his caring mother. It marks as one of Chesnutt's most intimate and sincere mom...
The opening baritone of the guitar mixing into lighter country fiddle and pedal steel is one of Chesnutt's best song openers. In an instant, he captures the lonesome drive home where he lets his daydreaming and what-ifs take over while blasting the radio. You can almost feel the sun fading and warming the seats of his pick-up truck.
"Gonna Get A Life" is another moment in which Chesnutt plays up to his East Texas and Creole and Cajun roots. Written by Jim Lauderdale and Frank Dycus, Chesnutt plays up the infectious melody and chorus. There's an accordion throughout that just drives the entire song into overdrive. This selection from What a Way to Liveis one of Chesnutt's most ...
No one loves their home state as much as Texans do. Here, Chesnutt narrates a free-wheeling roamer who just can't help but settle back down in Texas. In some respects, it's like the counter to George Strait's "All My Ex's Live in Texas." While Strait can't set foot back in Texas, Chesnutt has left a handful of broken hearts outside the Texasborder ...
"Old Country" appears on Chesnutt's third album, Longnecks & Short Stories. Though it's not as flashy as some of the album's more up-tempo honky-tonk parties ("Bubba Shot The Jukebox" and "Old Flames Have New Names"), it's one of Chesnutt's best storytelling moments to date. It's another reminder that Chesnutt could deliver heartfelt country croone...
Though Chesnutt rarely wrote any of his greatest hits, he had this innate ability to deliver the lines as if he was making them up on the spot. They were chock-full of idioms and universal country-fried phrases that could make you laugh, cry or both. That happens with Chesnutt's first single, "Too Cold At Home," where he narrates a sweltering long ...
Bubba may be the most relatable character in '90s country music. Even though he shoots the jukebox, it was spurred on by a deep and intense emotional country ballad played. Everyone's had one of those moments when a musical moment gets the best of you — albeit, maybe not to this level. And though it can feel like a bit of a novelty, "Bubba Shot the...
