The connection that the GOAT, otherwise known as Garth Brooks, has not only with his fans but his wife Trisha Yearwood is extraordinary and last month that connection had country fans reaching for their tissues during his performance at the CMA Awards of his new single “Stronger Than Me”. Garth had this song kept such a secret that his rehearsal was closed and only those absolutely necessary were present.
There has not been another song with such devotion and admiration as “Stronger Than Me”. In a relationship, you realize that you fulfill different areas of each other’s lives. The simple touch of her hand lifts the weight off of his shoulders. He always thought he needed to have all the answers, but when it came down to anything that really matters, she is stronger than him. Hearing “I Love You” makes him feel more like a man, and he prays that one day God takes him first because she is stronger than him.
In his brilliant acoustic performance of “Stronger than Me” that stole the CMA Awards, Garth displayed a rawness and vulnerability that is rarely shown by artists. The weight of the song was felt that night as Garth intensely gave all his heart on that stage. The simplicity of how Garth choose to perform this song really made way for his vocals to convey the message; the appeal of this song is the devotion it gives to his wife Trisha.
Don’t be caught off guard when you hear “Stronger Than Me” on the radio, you will detect that the guitar was swapped out with a piano. This switch doesn’t diminish the spirit of the song.
