• 5. “Unwound” – (1981)

  Share

  Strait’s very first single to country radio and the song that introduced us to this former army corporal. At the time, MCA Records offered him a single deal, agreeing to release one song as a single and to provide the necessary promotion. If the single was successful in sales and radio play, then an album deal would be offered. We know how that turned out!

• 4. “The Fireman” – (1985)

  Share

  Countless country artists from Blake Shelton to Garth Brooks have played this song in their shows before they had enough hits not to do covers. It’s a classic.

• 3. “The Chair” – (1985)

  Share

  "The Chair" came at the end of a night-long songwriting binge by songwriters, Hank Cochran and Dean Dillon. The two had been writing songs all night long and as Dillon puts it, "were about written out" - when he strummed his guitar and sang the line "Excuse me but I think you've got my chair." Twenty minutes later, "The Chair" was complete. The song was named by CMT as one of the Top 100 country songs of all time, posting at number 24.
• 2. “Amarillo by Morning” – (1983)

  Share

  George told CMT in a rare recent interview that this is the song he thinks people remember him most for.

• 1.”All My Ex’s Live in Texas” – (1987)

  Share

  Just classic Strait. The beat, the words, the feel of it, the image it gives listeners - all just perfect!
