In all of the history of the internet, 'LOL gay' as a stock response to almost everything has never been appropriate or funny. Like infinite monkeys and typewriters, it hits home. It's really gay, and it's about a cowboy.
Then again it demonstrates (Camp)bell's great songwriting skills. What a hook. You dont' have to like Campbell, Elton John, ABBA and so many others to acknowledge that they understand how to construct intro, chorus, coda etc.
It's not Britten, but it's excellent feelgood popcorn countrypop. If you can't enjoy this, you are dead inside. I'm glad that I stopped being an up-my-own-arse muso pseud - it just took me 50 years.
@cornwell It's not about a gay cowboy. It's not about a cowboy at all. It's about attaining success after much effort and rejection.
Glen Campbell didn't write the song either. It was written by Larry Weiss.
