You may feel that you’ve heard every song about life on the road, that there’s nothing more to hear. Well, there are a lot of songs about the touring life but Australia’s Lachlan Bryan brings enough autobiographical honesty to ‘The Road‘ that it stands out. There’s selfishness “I chose the road as something I would follow and I chose love as something I would leave behind / So I drove like there was no tomorrow and I broke every single heart that I could find” and there’s acceptance “the road was not a good decision but there ain’t no good in looking back in time.”
