My wife, Alison, and I went to see Jessie Ware in Philly last night. She played “Free Yourself” to close the evening and it was absolutely euphoric. Live music is the absolute best…except for my music project, because I’m terrible at it.

Feel like writing a song called "Choosin' Fedi" explaining how it is very easy for people to not hear one second of a No. 1 hit song. This Rolling Stone take that people who say they haven't heard "Choosin' Texas" are lying is ridiculous. And as a fan of the […] [Original post on musician.social]
ROLLING STONE

At this point, though, if someone contends they've never even heard of "Choosin' Texas" or Langley, it may say more about the listener than the song. Or, for that matter, what they want to project to the world. With incessant news coverage alongside chart and playlist presence, it's pretty difficult to still claim total ignorance on this one. Perhaps there is a deeper reason why people say they haven't heard the song and feel the need to make it known: cultural cachet.
