Officially on country radio. Today,
Randall King's "I Could Be That Rain" is on the airwaves as his first ever single at country radio, which was featured on his second major label album
Into The Neon that was released in January. The song was written by Brian Fuller and Mason Thornley, and finds Kind lamenting a lost love and how the rain won't stop falling now that this girl is gone, and he wants more than anything to "be that rain" falling on her skin:
"I've been watching it come down for hours Just another one of those July summer showers You used to love it when storms like this roll in The harder it fell, more fun we had getting caught in it Wish I could be that rain that's falling On your skin, baby, I'd start pouring Sing you a song on that old tin roof I'd make you miss me like I miss you" Of course, coupled with his pure country vocals, it's a really solid single and I hope it does well at mainstream country radio. Randall says he's "pumped" to have a song on the FM airwaves (it was the most-added single this week with 35 stations spinning the song on impact), adding that it's all he's ever wanted as a country singer:
"Man, I’m pumped! I’ve been eager, and patient, for this opportunity my whole career and I am ready to ride those air waves. It’s something I’ve dreamed of since I was a kid, listening to Strait and Alan on the airwaves, mimicking they’re singing in the side mirror from the passenger seat. This is ‘all I’ve ever wanted, so I’m chasing that neon rainbow’ now!" King has often been praised for his neotraditional country style, and has been compared to the likes of George Strait and Alan Jackson for his twangy, classic sound, and deservedly so. It's exciting that this kind of music finally has a fighting chance at radio once again, and I can't think of a more authentic, real deal artist than King to be leading that charge. Turn it up...
