“Friends In Low Places” Was Almost A George Strait Song
“Friends in Low Places” is Garth Brooks’ signature song, but it almost wasn’t his song at all.
Garth recorded a demo for the song, but George Strait was supposed to release it.
Garth said…
“The reason they asked me to do the demo was because I wanted to be George Strait for years, so I do a pretty good impersonation of him.”
But George didn’t want it, so Garth recorded the song for his 1990 album “No Fences”, and the rest is history.
