Lee Ann Womack's New "Finding My Way Back Home" Single

Lee Ann Womack (famous for her song, I Hope You Dance) has released a new single called Finding My Way Back Home. You can buy it off iTunes now. Reviewers said she looks like Ashley Tisdale on the cover, which I went, "" to.

Anyway, her new single rocks. I'm not the biggest fan of country music, but Lee Ann and her music are so great that I completely forgot about how country wasn't my favorite genre. You can hear the entire song on her MySpace:

Some background info. from Wikipedia:
Quote:
Her 1997 self-titled debut album brought her onto the country music scene as a herald of a more neotraditional country music sound, in a genre that had begun to sound more pop-oriented with the likes of LeAnn Rimes, Faith Hill and Shania Twain topping the charts. The hits from that first album were "Never Again, Again", "The Fool" and "You've Got To Talk To Me."

Her second album, 1998's Some Things I Know, brought us "A Little Past Little Rock", "(Now You See Me) Now You Don't" and "I'll Think Of A Reason Later", while her third and possibly most successful album to date, 2000's I Hope You Dance, featured, along with the award-winning aforementioned title cut (to which Sons of the Desert supplied the backing vocals) also featured the hits "Why They Call It Falling" and "Does My Ring Burn Your Finger" as well as covers of the 1980 Rodney Crowell hit "Ashes By Now", and the Don Williams' 1981 classic, "Lord I Hope This Day Is Good."

Womack's fourth album, Something Worth Leaving Behind, released in 2002, was seen by many as an attempt by her to cross over to the very pop-sound of which she was the antithesis five years earlier. The title cut and "Forever Everyday" were the only two singles released. Both went into the top 40 country chart.

Her most recent album, 2005's There's More Where That Came From features "I May Hate Myself In The Morning," the album's first single, which is viewed by many as a return to the traditional sound that brought her success in her earlier career. Later in 2005, Womack won three awards at the Country Music Awards: Single of the Year for "I May Hate Myself In The Morning", Album of the Year for There's More Where That Came From, and Musical Event of the Year for her duet, "Good News, Bad News", with George Strait.

Womack has recorded a few duets that have been released as singles. In 2002, her duet with Willie Nelson, "Mendocino County Line," became his biggest hit in several years. In 2004, she worked with country band Cross Canadian Ragweed on the track "Sick and Tired". The song had moderate success and received a bit of video airplay.

Womack has two daughters; Aubrie (with ex-husband Jason Sellers) and Anna Lise (with current husband Frank Liddell). Both daughters appeared in the video for "I Hope You Dance".
I just hope there are members here who like her music like I do. *hopes this thread doesn't die* Give her music a try if you haven't heard anything from her yet; listen to I Hope You Dance. It's more vocal than country. Anyway, I hope you enjoy her new single as much as I did.
