Clint Black releases new single
"Living in Nashville the past few years, I've had the opportunity to become more immersed in the local songwriting community, which has been great for me personally and creatively," Black said. "Not only have I started writing more with these incredible writers, but I've also been pitched some of the best songs I have ever heard, including 'The Strong One.'
"When Tim Wipperman at Equity played me that song, I got the chill bumps we're always looking for," he said. "It's one of those songs, as we say, 'I wish I had written!' I knew I had to record it, and that I wanted it to be the first single from my new album. Searching for that song has been one of the most humbling experiences I've had in this business. So many people made such a tremendous effort to find that song. This is a first for me - recording an outside song - and it had to be something that I could not resist, even at the exclusion of one of my own songs from the CD. And it is, literally, 'The Strong One'."
Black has written more than two dozen number one hits, and five of those were the first five singles he ever released. Black's third album for Equity Music Group is scheduled for release later this year.
