Music is a wonderful way to relax, unwind, or even become energized. We can pick music that fits our every mood, whether we are happy, mad, sad, or nostalgic. Not only that, there are so many genres of music to choose from that you can really never get bored with your choices. Country music is one extremely popular genre that millions of people enjoy every second of the day.

There are two country music artists who are very popular in the country music world. Those two are George Strait and Conway Twitty.

Twitty wrote the hit single himself. It was then released back in January of 1975. The song was his first single on an album that had the same name.

“Linda on My Mind” went on to become a huge hit, landing the number one spot on the charts for eight amazing weeks. This was Twitty’s 12th number one hit altogether.

The song is about a man who is in love with another woman named Linda. He wants to get out of the relationship he is currently in to be with her. While he can’t get Linda off of his mind, he still feels bad that he is causing his current lover pain.

He sings that he is aware that his current lover knows that he has “Linda on my mind.” It is a sad song but one that really resonated with millions of people.

George Strait covered the song with amazing accuracy. This classic country song was a hit back then, and today we are taking into account just how well Strait can sing it.
