It seems to me that country music has always been about the story, the words are most important. Every country song I've ever listened to have the singer up front, the lyrics unmistakably clear.

I was listening to K102 ( a country station) today and heard a song I could hardly make out every other word. Something about "wave on wave". Best of all, I loved the infectious beat of it. I pulled up to a stoplight today and young kids were giving me the look because of the sound level.

What is that song?

 

"And it came upon me wave on wave, you're the reason I'm still here."
Can't remember the name of the singer, but I seem to be able to understand it when I hear it, just can't remember all the words right now.

K102 -- Twin cities area eh? Prior Lake, myself.

 

right on dude I mod at a country music site, here you go

Pat Green - Wave On Wave


Mile upon mile, got no direction.
We're all playin' the same game.
We're all lookin' for redemption.
Just to pray, to say the name.

So caught up now in pretendin'
That what we're seekin' is the truth.
I'm just lookin' for a happy endin'.
All I'm lookin' for is you.

You came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
You came upon me, wave on wave.

I wandered out into the water,
An' I thought that I might drown.
I don't know what I was after,
Just know I was goin' down.

And that's when she found me.
Not afraid anymore.
She said: "You know, I always had you, baby.
"Just waitin' for you to find what you were lookin' for."

You came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
It came upon me, wave on wave.

Wave on wave.
Wave on wave.

An' it came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
It came upon me, wave on wave.

The clouds broke and the angels cried:
"You ain't gotta wipe the floor."
That's why it put me in your hands.
When it came upon me wave on wave.

Yeah, it came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
An' it came upon me, wave on wave.

To fade.

Yeah, it came upon me, wave on wave.
You're the reason I'm still here, yeah.
Am I the one you were sent to save?
An' it came upon me, wave on wave.

 

Porky 398,

Thanks so much. I have no idea what that means. But who cares? Every time it comes on I test the limits of the my stereo system in my F-150. Why is music better when it's loud? Has anybody got a good way to tweak a factory package?

 

oh man, G.O.B.L.I.N. where do I sign up... now thats a name...

 

There's a reason I've got over 2000 watts in my Bronco!! I like my music to go right through me so I can feel it.
