Hear Kacey Musgraves' Bee Gees-Inspired New Song, 'High Horse'

Kacey Musgraves  will release her fourth studio album, Golden Hour, on March 30, and she's giving fans another early listen with a new song called "High Horse." This funky jam is a departure from the traditional sound most country fans expect from the singer, featuring infectious beats that bring the Bee Gees to mine.

Zane Lowe of Beats 1 on Apple Music spoke with the singer about the fun jam, which Musgraves admits "was a freaking blast" to write and record.

"I had this title for a while," she says. "We all know that character that is just a little high of themselves. They're just a little bit arrogant. I had this title sitting around for a long time and I have my own ideas about who it's about. Everyone has that character in their life and then I got to write it and oh my gosh, it is the most fun ever."

Musgraves says she was "on a huge Bee Gees kick" when she was making the album and she was intrigued by the idea of a world where the Bee Gees meets country music. She co-wrote "High Horse" with Trent Dabbs and Thomas Schleiter.

"These days I only see music really as falling into two two genres, good or bad. You won't find someone on this earth that loves country music more than me but that also doesn't define all my musical tastes," she adds. "I was inspired by a thought of a world where all these ideas could come together musically and still translate as good songs if I sat down and played them on my guitar."

New Compilation Pop Career Of Andy Gibb

The spectacularly successful career of the late Andy Gibb is commemorated on the new CD and digital collection The Very Best Of Andy Gibb, to be released on 13 April by Capitol/UMe. From 9 March, pre-orders of the digital album will include instant download and streaming access to his duet version of Gerry Goffin and Carole King’s ‘Will You Love Me Tomorrow,’ with seasoned soul songstress P.P. Arnold. 

The 15-track collection includes all three of his US No. 1 singles, ‘I Just Want To Be Your Everything,’ ‘Shadow Dancing’ and ‘(Love Is) Thicker Than Water.’ All three of those chart-toppers were achieved during a tumultuous 11-month period in 1977 and ’78, in which he was part of the unprecedented adulation afforded Gibb and his Bee Gee brothers Barry, Maurice and Robin.
The three further US top ten hits that followed that sequence, ‘An Everlasting Love,’ ‘(Our Love) Don’t Throw It All Away’ and ‘Desire,’ which featured the Bee Gees, are also on the compilation. It also features Andy’s near-top ten singles from 1980, ‘I Can’t Help It,’ featuring Olivia Newton-John, and ‘Time Is Time.’
All but two of the tracks on the retrospective are taken from Gibb’s three big-selling studio albums, 1977’s Flowing Rivers, 1978’s Shadow Dancing — both of which were certified platinum — and 1980’s After Dark, which went gold. The exceptions are ‘Time Is Time’ and the duet with Arnold, which were part of his previous hits release, 1980’s Andy Gibb’s Greatest Hits.

Peta Gibb remembering her dad Andy

  

 Peta Gibb Weber: 
"I choose to remember my father today, March 5, on what should have been his 60th birthday. I wish he was here to celebrate with us and to be the dad to me, the husband to my mother, the pop to his grandchildren and the mate to my husband that we have all needed but he was never given the chance to be. 
I won't be commenting further on the 10th. I prefer not to commemorate the events of 30 years ago, events that never should have happened in the first place, took away a young life with so much unfulfilled potential far too soon and caused so much unnecessary pain. What happened in March 1988 remains etched clearly in my mind forever but I have no further wish to talk about it publicly. Just please know that I am now absolutely at peace with how things turned out but I will never forget. 
So, happy birthday to my father in heaven. For me personally, this time is not a time for celebration. It is about making sure what happened to Andy Gibb (and too, too many others like him) stops happening. History continues to repeat itself and, with this in mind, if you possibly can, please consider a practical tribute to my father's memory via a contribution to @musicsupport_uk or @musicares. These organisations provide invaluable and tireless support to musicians and others in the music industry struggling with mental illness and addiction. 
And finally - let the music live on. For that is all we really have left. I have more news about that coming very, very soon.
