The Most Well-Written Country Song

Written by Alan Jackson himself, “Remember When” was referred to as “the most poignant, well-written country song to hit the format in a long time” by Billboard. The song actually serves as a fond reflection back on Jackson’s life and relationship with his wife, Denise.

“Remember when we said when we turned gray, when the children grow up and move away? We won’t be sad, we’ll be glad for all the life we’ve had. And we’ll remember when,” the song goes. Jackson and Denise have three beautiful daughters together, and their love towards one another is as strong as ever. 

“Remember When” was released in October 2003 as the second and final single from Jackson’s compilation album, Greatest Hits Volume II. It debuted at No. 45 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks for the week and eventually reached No. 1. 

Indeed, Carrie Underwood has chosen a timeless song for her Grand Ole Opry visit.
