Lambert likes "Strange"

Monday, July 18, 2022 – Miranda Lambert is back with a new single, "Strange," which went for adds at country radio today.

"Strange" is the second single off Lambert's latest album, "Palomino" and was written by Lambert, Natalie Hemby and Luke Dick. The song is the follow-up to Lambert's top 10 single "If I Was A Cowboy," the 15th of her career.

"'Strange' is permission to just let go for a sec," said Lambert. "We were really wanting the chorus to lift – literally and emotionally – and go into a happy place. It's such a song for the time that we're in right now, but it doesn't feel like it won't matter in 10 years, either.

"We couldn't land on a bridge," she said of the writing process. "So, each one of us went and wrote a bridge on our own and came back and we ended up using lines from each person's – so we cowrote that without even meaning to. It was pretty cool; everyone's was different but when we took lines out of mine, Luke's and Natalie's, it all fit together."

This fall, Lambert do a Las Vegas residency at he Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino starting in September for a 24-date run.

CD review - Revolution Every once in a while an album comes along that restores your faith in mainstream country music. Miranda Lambert's "Revolution" is just such a recording. It's not revolutionary, as the title might suggest. Instead, this CD is chock full of topnotch songs that are both memorable and sincere and never sound slick or overproduced. (Come to think of it, such old school values as these may in fact be revolutionary around Nashville). Lambert vocalizes a bit like a little girl at ...
CD review - Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Even though it sounds like a cliche from the big book of country songwriting, the truth is that, when the timing's right, a loser can end up being the biggest winner of all. Today's object lesson comes from Miranda Lambert and her sophomore album, the follow-up to her 2005 near-platinum debut, "Kerosene." Imagine for a moment if the then-19-year-old had actually taken the crown in 2003's Nashville Star and then been forced into the studio within weeks to be primped and ...
