Amanda tells us her song “Someone to Miss Me,” is a very personal one. sharing with us “The idea came one evening when I returned home from a gig, after an amazing show, and genuinely thought, “I wish I had someone to miss me” (other than my pups). Ha! I took the idea into a writing session with Mark Narmore & Carl Holder in Muscle Shoals, and it almost wrote itself. After recording a full band demo of the song, Mark and I decided we loved the piano/vocal version best, so that's how we recorded it for Front Porch Rebel…grand piano and vocals…live in the same room! It was magical! Songs don't always come from first hand experience, but the rawest highs and lows in life can truly
produce the most authentic, relatable songs!
Sometimes I wish I had
someone to miss me
Someone who would worry
if I didn’t make it home
One who lives just to kiss me
Oh, I wish I had someone to miss me
Oh, I wish I had someone to miss me
With bluesy piano and soulful vocals “Someone to Miss Me” is a truly unique piece to the country genre and Amanda brings a lot to the table. truly beautiful song and one that many have felt at one point or another Amanda perfectly conveys every emotion with her fabulous and powerful vocals.
