Here’s my pick for a country style tune that speaks to getting to the point of surrender:

Screw country! Here’s a ~40 second re-mix of a Disney tune that’s now a perfect break-up song!

Kit, Thanks for reminding me about Delbert.
First song I ever heard from him was this one, which has a great beat & good lyrics.

Hope all is well, bud.

Country does everything best but music now.

It has become so predictably trite.

I think you’re referring to pop-country. I do like the older stuff more too.

Gonna see Robert Earl Keen in a few days. He’s hanging his hat up after this tour…only reason why I’m going since it will be the last time. Hoping he’s not too drunk!

Saw Pat Green a while back and he couldn’t even stand up. He was so drunk that refunds were offered due to the shitty performance.

Experiencing the pain of a breakup doesn’t require lyrics — or words of any kind — just music that, somehow, captures the pain of the moment and melds it with your entire being … 

This piece by Arvo Part has always conveyed that for me … and, yet, somehow the end of it always has that uplift … that feeling (for me, at least) of hope …

Gonna take a freight train
Down at the station, Lord
I don’t care where it goes
Gonna climb a mountain
The highest mountain
Jump off, nobody gonna know
Can’t you see, whoa, can’t you see
What that woman, Lord, she been doin’ to me
Can’t you see, can’t you see
What that woman, she been doin’ to me…
