"Friends in Low Places" could have been one of George Strait's biggest hits. In fact, had Garth Brooks gotten his way, the King of Country would have taken the song to No. 1! This revelation comes from Brooks' new book, The Anthology Part 1, where he shares insights into his journey in the music industry and his passion for country music. The story of how this iconic song came to be is not just about the music, but about dreams, aspirations, and the paths that artists take to achieve their goals.
Whether or not Strait ever heard the song remains unknown, but the impact of "Friends in Low Places" on Brooks' career is undeniable. Released on his second album, No Fences, in 1990, it became the biggest song of his storied career and has remained a staple of his live performances for decades. Brooks considers himself fortunate to have ended up with this iconic track, proving that sometimes, the stars align in unexpected ways.
