This proves that, Luke went through his first couple of years of life, not knowing what is at stake or if there was anyone going through the constant hidden as he was. He had always played by the rules and was unaware of what was happening around him.

Regardless of George Strait's incredible history of recognition and awards, he has always been one of my favorite country music artists. I am a true, long time fan of traditional country and I love his style in particular because of the dash of honky tonk and swing music that comes with it. My husband has roots in Texas and we spend quite a bit of time there on vacation. We enjoy the cowboy lifestyle and have always spent our free time enjoying country music, country two step dancing at the dance hall, being outside horseback riding, attending the rodeo, visiting the county fair and enjoying the laid back country life. One day we plan on moving back to Texas permanently and in the meantime, George's music makes us feel at home wherever we are.

Etched deep in the spirit of every person are the memories of life altering-mistakes. For most people, these mistakes devastate their lives permanently, but for a select group, the impact is breathtaking. The idea that one huge mistake could lead to mind-boggling success is the type of story one only reads about. World-renowned rock band Aerosmith’s success story is undeniably one of the greatest of all time, but it didn’t come without massive failure. Steven Tyler, the lead singer of rock and roll hall of fame band Aerosmith, recorded his first solo song, “Love Lives”, divulging his jaded emotions of losing his band, wife, and essentially, soul during the early stages of his now historic career. Although Tyler’s song appears to be just another cliche love song, the ballad capitalizes on parallelism, nostalgia imagery and diction, and ambiguity to expose the tremendous loss he suffered as a result of his career crippling drug addiction and the overwhelming success that emerged from the ashes of his past.
