The Song Remembers When: Eric Church – “Some of It”

We take you behind the scenes and explore the making of one of our favorite tunes with The Song Remembers When…

 

Back in July, Eric Church scored his eighth career number one with “Some of It.” He wrote the song with Jeff Hyde, Bobby Pinson, and Clint Daniels.

Although it was a big hit, it was a song that almost wasn’t. See, Eric had finished his album Desperate Man, and he was playing it for a friend when Eric’s wife Katherine chimed in. She told the friend, “Now hear what didn’t make the album.” And, she had him play “Some of It.”

At that point, Eric reconsidered that song. He then called his manager to say that he wanted to put one more song on that album. It wound up becoming the second single off Desperate Man, and it, along with the album, earned Grammy nominations for Best Country Song and Best Country Album.

This week’s The Song Remembers When is Eric Church with “Some of It.”
