More Than a Memory

Garth Brooks is one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Garth has been known for his high-energy, crazy performances at concerts. Since childhood, I have always idolized Garth. I have always said, if he ever came back to do another concert I would be there, no matter what. Come to find out, Garth did nine concerts in Kansas City. He was originally planning on doing one concert, but it sold out in less than four minutes, he kept adding more and more. That goes to show you how many people love Garth Brooks and how good he really is. I made it to one of the concerts, and just as I expected, it was the greatest concert ever. It was filled with energy and emotion.

He has recently came out with three new songs, after taking a break for while. One of the songs is called "More Than a Memory." In this song, Garth sings about losing a loved one that he cared so much about and he cannot get over her.

I really enjoy listening to this song, because I can relate to it since I recently broke up with my girlfriend of three years. In the chorus of the song Garth sings, "Dailing six numbers just to hang up, drive across town just to see if she's home, waking a friend in the dead of the night, just to hear him say it's gonna be alright." This is my favorite part of the song. I have gone through all of that and it seems like Garth knew exactly how i was feeling. The song also talks about talking to God and the toll depression takes on the mind and body.

The concert lasted for four hours and it felt like it just flew by. When Garth sang "More Than a Memory," which was only released two weeks before, the entire stadium chimed in and sang along. When the song ended, Garth started to cry, showing his love for his fans and all the support he still has after all these years.
