Description
Everybody wants to know / how I feel and what I think, Margo Price sings in her emotive, bittersweet twang, halfway through her third full-length record. On Thats How Rumors Get Started, Price has committed her genre-bending rock-and-roll show to record for the first time, stretching out into sky-high soft-rock, burning psychedelic rock ballads, stomping road songs, and sprinkles of pop.
Twinkle Twinkle:
Twinkle Twinkle is an anti-nostalgia anthem of sorts, about the polarization of becoming a more well-known artist, and the wild ride that was Margo Prices last few years. It traces her trajectory: she gets by, gets high, racks up debt, cant pay the rent, plays dives to stay alive. If it dont break you, it might just make you rich, she sings, with heroic sass.
In fact, the song was inspired by a back-stage encounter with Marty Stuart and the Superlatives at a music festival that was otherwise pretty bleak. (Price has played with Superlatives guitarist Kenny Vaughan over the years.) After the show, in Stuarts trailer, while he tuned his guitars, he said to Price, So, you and the band have been on the road a lot lately, do you all hate each other yet? As Price recalls it: I said, No, well, I mean, our marriages are falling apart and our healths deteriorating. But other than that, were great. And he looks at me, and he gets this gleam in his eye, and he says, You wanted to be a star.. Twinkle twinkle.
