SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 3:37 Min.
Written and performed by The Dixie Chicks, “You Were Mine” is the fifth track off their 1998 album, Wide Open Spaces.
REVIEW:
The Dixie Chicks are in solid storytelling form. The first-person lyrics describing a wife’s grief over losing her husband to another woman isn’t about originality. What this trio instead conjures up is a nicely-rendered and bittersweet ballad. For fans of contemporary country, “You Were Mine” merits a chance at re-discovery.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 7 Stars
