Tammy Wynette — Queen of Pain
September 8, 2007I’ve never been that big of a Tammy Wynette fan, but I recently put her box set into my mix on my iPod. The other day I was out running, and about the time it really started to hurt, “I Don’t Want to Play House” came on my mix. All of a sudden, I got it.
Tammy Wynette is all about pain. Real pain. You can hear it in her voice in a way that I’ve
never heard anyone express except for possibly Johnny Cash. While there are countless great country singers putting out music right now, you can’t hear a bit of pain in any of their voices. None. Again, a great example of honesty and integrity that just isn’t there nowadays.
