Luke Combs’ “When It Rains It Pours” is undoubtedly one of the most feel-good country songs of the past decade. Combs’ distinct voice, combined with the catchy melody and relatable lyrics, make it nearly impossible to resist belting out the chorus whenever it comes on the radio. But what is the true story behind the hit song? In this article, we’ll explore the meaning behind the lyrics and the events that led to its creation.

Usually people think negatively when they hear the saying, "When It Rains It Pours." But Luke Combs had a different idea with his latest music video...

Luke Combs and Jordan Walker of Walker McGuire first met over beers at a bar in Nashville three years ago. The two budding artists were introduced by a mutual friend, songwriter Ray Fulcher, and shortly after their initial meeting they went on to write what would become Combs’ second No. 1 hit, “When It Rains It Pours.”

“Country Song” is a song by Bo Burnham that satirically mocks some of the common topics of modern country songs, including but not limited to:

• Dirt roads
• Cold beer
• Blue jeans
• Trucks
• Belonging to the working class and blue-collar jobs
• Relationships with Southern/“country” women

Edit: Added info below

I am a big fan of Bo Burnham’s unique and thought-provoking comedy. His songs often have deeper meanings hidden beneath their catchy tunes and witty lyrics. One song that particularly stands out to me is “Country Song” from his album “Make Happy” released in 2016.

As the song begins, Bo addresses the audience, acknowledging that country music often receives a bad reputation. He argues that country music can be just as artistic and meaningful as any other genre, highlighting iconic country artists like Dolly Parton and Willie Nelson. However, he criticizes the modern trend of what he refers to as “Stadium Country Music,” represented by artists like Keith Urban.

The song “Country Song (Pandering)” by Bo Burnham is a satirical commentary on the state of popular country music. In this song, Burnham parodies the formulaic and cliché themes often found in country songs, exposing the pandering nature of the genre. With witty lyrics and a catchy melody, Burnham uses humor to shed light on the lack of originality and authenticity in mainstream country music.

The lyrics of “Country Song (Pandering)” mock the overused tropes and stereotypes commonly found in country music. Burnham sings about trucks, beer, girls, and pickup lines, highlighting the predictable and formulaic nature of these themes. He cleverly utilizes wordplay and sarcasm to poke fun at the repetitive narratives often found in country songs, making his commentary on the genre both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Lyrics: https://genius.com/New-jacks-eat-it-lyrics

As a musician, I’ve come across countless songs that have left a lasting impact on me. However, there is one particular song that holds a special place in my heart – “Eat It” by the New Jacks. I first heard this song during my teenage years, and its powerful lyrics and energetic beats resonated with me from the very first listen.

“Eat It” was the lyrical debut of MC Double M, also known as Eminem, and was released in 1988 when he was just sixteen years old. This song showcased his raw talent and set the stage for his later style of dense rhymes and intense wordplay. The New Jacks EP, which included this track, served as a launching pad for Eminem’s successful rap career.

As a fan of Rise Against, one song that has always resonated with me is “Hero of War” from their fifth album, Appeal to Reason (2008). This powerful track delves into the story of an Iraq war veteran reflecting on the realities and hardships he faced during his time serving. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the protagonist’s journey, and it’s no surprise that this song stands as one of Rise Against’s most politically charged and impactful songs when it comes to war.

https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-hero-of-war-by-rise-against-2/

---

Off of Rise Against’s fifth album Appeal to Reason, “Hero Of War” is about an Iraq war veteran looking back on the hardships he endured during the war. The song starts out with an army recruiter asking the protagonist, a potential recruit, to enlist. With promises of adventure and money, they do indeed sign up. At the end of the song, the enlistee, now a veteran, recalls with bitter irony the army recruiter’s promise that signing up would mean he could see the world.

Rise Against is definitely a politically motivated band and this song is easily one of their best/most vocal songs regarding war.

When asked by ARTISTdirect about having learned more about the Vietnam War through music, rather than history books, McIlrath replied with:

I was talking about the song, “Hero of War,” when I said that. It was written expressly with that idea in mind. It was a way to documenting what’s going on, like other artists documented for their generation and for generations to come. I felt it was a service to kids like me. “Fortunate Son” or “Ohio” by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, which are huge hits today, were songs that I learned from. Mass media brought that song to my ears. It was a great way to remind Americans or others around the world what was going on at the time. There are not many songs serving that purpose in 2008 or talking about what’s going on during eight years of occupation in Iraq. That, combined with meeting active soldiers and retired soldiers at our shows and hearing those stories about what is going on on the ground amid all the bullshit, showed me the differences from what is really happening to what is happening in the news media. I just thought that this needed to go into a song. There needs to be more of these kinds of songs, so I figured, let’s write one.

Guitarist Zach Blair told Ultimate-Guitar.com about this multi-layered acoustic guitar song:

That was a song Tim (McIlrath, frontman) had in the studio and it was one of those things that were like it was his baby; it was his whole thing. It’s a brilliant song and it might raise a few eyebrows but I stand behind it a hundred percent. It will be when we do it live; when we do a lot of radio and we’re promoting the record, Tim and I do a lot of the acoustic songs. It first it was gonna be really bare bones, just one acoustic guitar line, but they started adding more things onto it. Such is the case: This band gets real layered sometimes and it’s always best to layer a lot and take away afterward. Yeah, that one got real layered; it was always just Tim sittin' there by himself just goin' for it.

This song was inspired by the 2006 documentary The Ground Truth: After the Killing Ends, which focuses on soldiers' Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) after returning home from war. The song tells the story of a guy who enlists in the military, figuring he'll be celebrated as a war hero after he does his duty. He ends up fighting overseas under horrific conditions, and ends up torturing a prisoner and killing a civilian under duress.

Nice, great to see more communities about shows!

Yes, I see a good amount; I also try to interact with them as well!

I have a few admirers; they make sure to share their opinion on some of my posts; making sure I am not lonely, how thoughtful!

I share songs that I like, regardless of political leaning, at least I try to.

Thanks for expressing your opinion on the matter, feel free to share your own songs!

A diversity of ideas, and songs, [should] be [encouraged]; so as to not create a bubble!

Everywhere is a place to share what we want, unless it goes against rules or group think, in some communities....

You are free to share 'bias' songs as well, no need to censor ourselves just to appease people that do not like to see political songs...

Again, feel free to share your own songs (with bias or no bias, regardless of political leanings), no one is stopping you or trying to, at least I am not.

I hope this helps explain my thinking on the matter!

Oh, yes, I do not see the world as you do...

I see it as, everything of importance has politics engraved in them, even music.

Random: it reminded me of a band that some may have grown up with, one of them being Rage Against the Machine, it went viral when some people found out it was a political band.

Thanks for sharing your views, even if I do not agree, always great to talk with people that do not think or agree with my way of the world!

“Blue Suede” is the lead single for Vince Staples' 2014 Def Jam EP Hell Can Wait.

The track opens with a blood-curdling synth and couples it with the bone-breaking thump of Me & the Biz Born to Roll.

There’s been much speculation as to whether this song is an extended metaphor of the hood life, a mockery of fake rappers that portray that image, or Vince just being Vince.

https://genius.com/Vince-staples-blue-suede-lyrics

In the chorus, Staples repeats the line “New shoes with the blue suede,” using blue suede shoes as a metaphor for material possessions, a symbol of status and success. He juxtaposes this image with the line “young graves get the bouquets,” reminding us of the violence and tragedy that often accompanies the pursuit of these material desires.

Letra: https://www.musica.com/letras.asp?letra=2014608

A.C.A.B., a popular song by the Spanish punk band Non Servium, holds a significant meaning that resonates with many individuals in the punk and anti-establishment communities. As a fan of Non Servium and someone who was deeply influenced by punk music during my teenage years, this song holds a special place in my heart. It signifies solidarity, rebellion, and the rejection of authority.

Lyrics: https://genius.com/Kublai-khan-tx-low-tech-lyrics

"Low Tech" by Kublai Khan TX explores themes of feeling out of place in a rapidly advancing world, grappling with the expectations and pressures of society, and ultimately finding strength in embracing one's true self.

https://www.songtell.com/kublai-khan-tx/low-tech

"Low Tech" sounds like Kublai Khan. It's heavy. It's got breakdowns. The riffs are down-tuned. Frontman Matt Honeycutt sounds like you tapped his shoulder in the middle of a deadlift set and he's gonna chase you across the gym to whoop your ass.

A police state is one in which the government exercises rigid and repressive controls over the social, economic, and political life of the population. A police state typically exhibits elements of totalitarianism and social control, and there is usually little or no distinction between the law and the exercise of political power by the executive. (Wikipedia)

In their politically-conscious style of hip-hop, Dead Prez repeatedly call attention to the way in which Black America exists in a police state within mainstream US society. From the School to Prison-Pipeline, to the War on Drugs, to Prison Industrial Complex, to the stripping of certain rights or welfares for the formerly incarcerated, the lives of Black Americans are restricted and exploited through US government policies. In this song, they call for a violent but justified revolution against this systematic oppression.

Lyrics: https://genius.com/Roger-glover-love-is-all-lyrics

Can't find much on this version...unless information below applies to this one:

In 1973 Roger Glover left Deep Purple because of work pressure and tensions between him and Ritchie Blackmore. Together with Jon Lord he worked on a solo project. Their plan was to make a rock opera based on William Plomer and Alan Aldridge's picture book The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast (1973), in itself based on the eponymous poem by British historian William Roscoe (1802).[2] However, because Lord was too busy with Deep Purple, Glover decided to make it into a concept album recorded by himself and musicians like Glenn Hughes, David Coverdale, John Lawton and Ronnie James Dio. The resulting album was titled The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast.[1]

"Love Is All" is a 1974 pop song, credited to Roger Glover & Guests in the credits, but in reality sung by American heavy metal singer Ronnie James Dio. It was featured on Glover's solo album The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper's Feast and the single – released in the UK on 8 November 1974 – was a number one-hit in the Netherlands and Belgium.

Roger Glover And Guests - Love Is All [03:08 | Pop, Rock, Art Rock, Symphonic Rock, Folk Rock, Pop-Rock] https://youtu.be/BR6pYICqZT0

The song came with an animated music video featuring a lute playing frog gathering animals in the forest for the upcoming ball.[2] The animation was created by the Halas and Batchelor studio[1] and one of the animators was Harold Whitaker.[2] The video received a lot of airplay over the decades, particularly as a fill-in during technical difficulties, such as on the French TV channel Antenne 2, and in the United States in children's TV programs such as The Great Space Coaster and Nickelodeon morning shows.[1] Those random airings, together with the psychedelic tone of the clip and the lack of subtitles, made it very popular amongst young viewers.

The name "Leftöver Crack" is explained by Stza as being "an oxymoron", based on the idea that crack cocaine addicts are known for vigorous use and are unlikely to have any "leftover" crack.
