Well, a while back, I told you guys that a successful country group had put my song "Here Comes Goodbye" on hold. That was in April of last year. 9 moths have come and gone. In October I found out that the song had in fact been recorded by said group (who will be left unnamed at this juncture). They recorded the song, but there were no guarantees that the song would make the album. Nashville is weird about overcutting and literally artists will not decide what songs go on their albums until the day that it is due at the manufacturers. So, I've tried to keep my hopes down just in case everything didn't go through.
However, I received word yesterday that not only will it be on the album of said artist, it will be a single, with a good probability of being the 1st single!
So, look to hear my song on country radio very very soon!
My name is Chris Sligh. As an artist I'm award-winning, critically acclaimed & mildly-to-not popular; I wrote a number 1 song (Here Comes Goodbye) for Rascal Flatts. I'm married to Sarah and I'm deeply in love. Most importantly, I am a Christ-follower.

Wow that's great news! Congrats!
Awesome! I can't wait to find out for sure who it is! I have my suspicions...
That is awesome!! I am so happy for you. Can't wait to find out who and when it will be out...
It must feel really good for you..
Yay Chris!! I love how you're finding success in every facet of your career - we never doubted it!
YAY!! I had no doubt about that one.
Yeeeeeee-Hawwwww!!!!!
NOW we're talking! Good for you dude, good for you!
That is AWESOME!! It should be the first single cause it's a guaranteed hit. I LOVE that song!!
Exciting news Chris. When the time comes let us know who the group is. I'm not a country/western fan, however, since it will be a single, I'm willing to buy it from iTunes.
I love country music as much as rock and pop. Can't usually listen to it because I end up crying like a baby. Nothing worse than a whimpering plumber.
Chris will be featured on www.b98.com in the morning. You can hear it about 8:15 central, but you might want to start listening earlier, and should be available as a podcast after that. Chris was on 94.1, the Point this morning with our pres, Nancy, and Nancy and I were on American family radio (and guess what picnic folks...I got to talk about Rotel! LOL) We got a great piece in the AR Democrat Gazette today. It's all coming together! (but Lord have mercy, I couldn't do this as my day job--it's too stressful! LOL)
I'm still excited over the "Here Comes Goodbye" news. WOO HOO! (You wouldn't want to sing that Sat., would you Chris?)
OK, I apologize for posting again, but now I'm on a quest for more info. If this is the first single off an upcoming CD, will it likely drop a few weeks before the CD comes out? What determines that?
I know what group I think this is, based on the sound of the song (it would be PERFECT for them, so if I'm wrong and they passed it by, they will be so sorry!) and by a little internet googling of when this group's next CD is dropping. But, I could be all wet. Can't wait until you can tell us!
Chris, this is my very first Blog response - ever. I had to look you up after hearing Empty Me and, finally, putting together that that was you! (I really am not that dense, just that distracted). I am happy to read how things have been going for you post AI v6.0. Praise God!! We need more salt & light in the entertainment industry. Can't wait to find out the identity of the group.
