00:00Hey, it's Lainey Wilson. Listen to the Odyssey world premiere of my new song,
00:04Somewhere Over Laredo, on your favorite Odyssey country station. I have always been inspired by
00:09putting myself into other people's shoes and telling stories from other people's perspective,
00:14but I found a new creative avenue with this one by putting myself back into a pair of shoes that
00:20I wore years ago. When you're writing songs and something great comes together,
00:24you can just feel it. It doesn't happen every single time, but we really felt that with this
00:30one. I knew that we had something special with Somewhere Over Laredo. There's something about
00:35being 30,000 feet in the air, looking out at the clouds and wondering what town you're flying over
00:41that takes you back to a certain time and place and memory. I think Somewhere Over Laredo, it tells
00:47a story that speaks to that, and I hope fans can share in that feeling with this song.
00:54Hi, everyone.
