With Justin Townes Earle's pedigree come mixed blessings. As the son of legendary singer/songwriter Steve Earle, high expectations are the name of the game, and he's shown that he is up to the task on The Good Life, crafting stark portraits and narrative tales with elements of blues, classic country and rock n'roll. A modern-day troubadour, Earle blends genres seamlessly, framing his songs in warm musical settings and creating tunes that could easily be mistaken for classics.

This is an important song and he should re-release it on his next album. The only recorded version I've heard is on his father's 2003 album and it is lamentably bad, given the beauty of the song. Such a moving performance in this video. My advice to Justin: don't fuck yourself up. You have god-given talent. Use it. Enjoy it. Reap the rewards. You have a rare gift. Respect it and respect yourself.
