"99 percent of people don't get to achieve the success that we've had," Brad Tursi acknowledges in a new interview with Taste of Country about his solo project, Parallel Love. He is, of course, talking about his band Old Dominion: Arguably the most successful country group of the past decade. They've achieved country radio success with hits like "Break Up With Him," "No Such Thing as a Broken Heart," "Make it Sweet" and "One Man Band." They're awards show darlings, winning ACM Group of the Year for seven years running and CMA Vocal Group of the Year for six.

Guilty conscience, eh?

Obviously there are all kinds of jokes these days about Garth Brooks being an actual murderer, thanks to comedian Tom Segura and his wife, Christina P, coming to the (inevitable, really) conclusion on their Your Mom's House podcast that Garth is, in fact, a serial killer.

Take a quick look at any mention of Garth on social media and you'll immediately see that the comments are flooded with questions like "Where are the bodies?" and folks begging for closure for the families of his victims.

But the song "Murder on Music Row" had nothing to do with an ACTUAL murder.

One of the things that sets country music apart from other genres of music is the regularity at which artists release cover songs. For instance, in the ‘70s it was normal to see multiple artists cut the same song within months of one another. Today, many artists dip into the vast collection of songs from the past or tap expert songsmiths to get their material. Sometimes, it’s obvious that songs are secondhand. However, there are plenty of country songs from top artists that some listeners don’t know are covers.
