Prompt: "The worst song on your favorite record"
Selected by Sara
"Velvet Elvis"
Kacey Musgraves
Golden Hour, 2018
Kacey Musgraves' third album, Golden Hour, is a contender for a "no skip" album for me. This album brought me back to country music. It is also coincidentally an album of love songs that came out when my husband and I first started dating. A perfect storm to have me play this on repeat.
"Worst" is a harsh word when you love an album so much. Sorry Nate, I can't say this is the worst song, because it's such an amazing album. I will say that it is my least favorite song. "Velvet Elvis" is a song I would debate the skip. I think it's just her idolization of Elvis. He's not for me. He's a weird groomer and drug addict. Also, for what it's worth, I find the song a little too plucky. If you listen and hear the guitar riff in the background, it's like a bit too cartoony for me. Sorry Kacey, don't be mad at me!!

Good choice for album. Looking forward to your RC review of her new album in a couple weeks.
My choice for worst song is probably "Space Cowboy." Too corny.
