Hey, I dunno of everyone knows the Chris Daughtry album, but the second single of it is coming up (or is already released), and it's Home, track no.3 at the cd.

Although I already knew the track for quite a while and liked it in the beginning, I found this at Billboard.com

QUOTE
"Home," fires up another anthemic rock power ballad, with a lyric dedicated to U.S. troops overseas, a la, "I'm going home to a place I belong/Where your love has always been enough for me." Considering his sure-shot, flame-throwing vocal, name-brand cachet and mass appeal via a No. 1 album—not to mention the song's use as the exit theme each week on "A.I."—"Home" is undeniably where America's heart is.


Ofcourse I made the connection to Home at SFBM and Home at Daughtry before, but I never thought about something behind it, just songs with the same title.
But reading that in Billboard, realising he's a big Live fan, and Live made a song about a US-soldier's view in the Gulfwar a year before Daughtry releases a single Home that also deals with the US troops. And he will have a lot of airplay in the US, regarding his first single!

Man sad.gif I'm not offending Daughtry, I like his album, but damn, with a better promotion SFBM could be so much more succesfull for Live than that it was (or is). And now Daughtry gets attention with a theme Live did already before in a song.
SFBM had not to fail, there was a lot of hit potential stuff on this album eh.gif
