    LYRICS:
    Shake off the pain
    Get back on your feet again
    It flooded when you prayed for rain
    You prayed for rain
    The well's runnin’ dry
    Hell, so am I
    I won't give up this time
    No, not this time
    [Chorus]
    'Cause all my friends, we were born survivors
    And every time I close my eyes, I’m dreamin' 'bout tomorrow
    You know some things will never change
    I think about it when I pray for rain
    The rain turned to hail
    Cold, dark, and pale
    It beat me as I fell
    Lord, I fell
    The sun sets
    And twilight hugs the ground
    Oh, we won't let lonely bring us down
    Bring us down
    'Cause all my friends, we were born survivors
    And every time I close my eyes, I'm dreamin' 'bout tomorrow
    You know some things will never change
    I think about it when I pray for rain
    Oh, some things will never change
    Think about it when you pray for rain
    Pray for rain

      Vocally I get it... otherwise, I don't see the match up. I don't wanna say Colter is more hat than cattle but... I think he'd get showed up as the lesser artist on this hypothetical collab (which I don't feel he is, personally) unless it was the perfect track. Too much red dirt in Paul, not enough disco or soul in Colter. He gets plenty of airtime in my truck, but I think its gonna have to be a Tyler Childers type, or to take it another direction, Charlie Crockett. Not Charlie's normal gig but with his ability to go out and bring in obscure tracks from a generation or two ago and either turn out a cover that sounds like the song is his, or lay it down true as hell to the original - I don't know, I just think it'd work out surprisingly well for as much difference exists between em.
      Lot of ways either one of my examples could just be a trash fire of a failure, but - I stand by it!! Nothin wrong with a track with Wall either, just wouldn't expect dynamite from that pairing.

    So, I'm not someone that likes country at all. I've never had the ear for it, it just never sat right with my palette, and I'm someone that listens to mostly everything. So as I was listening to Paul's interview on NPR (on the way to work), I was pretty disinterested. Then they played some clips, and I was enticed. So I loaded up his album on Bandcamp and played it all the way through at work, and now I'm a fan. Room 41 is One of the best albums I've heard this year. It's truly good from start to finish, and now I can say I like "country." The fact that he mixes soul, rock, r-n-b, and other genres in makes it a joy to listen to. Not to mention the instrumentation is so skilled and interesting, his songwriting and storytelling is really unique and well-done, and all of the genres are intertwined so well, and his voice just melts it all into one perfect package. I'm like a superfan of this guy right now and I really pray for his success, because if this is the type of stuff people think of when they say "I listen to country", I'm all for it.

It's very possible that Paul Cauthen bent the bar and broke the sound barrier! The mix of musical talent and expression on this album is genre-bending and soul rectifying! Hats off to Paul and the band for creating a beautiful album! Already looking forward to his future work.
