Fresh off feel-good chart topper “Beers And Sunshine,” his 10th No. 1 at Country radio, Darius Rucker is back with more new music off a forthcoming album currently in the works. Darius shared the new track, “My Masterpiece,” late last night, tweeting; “I’ve been working on some new music for y’all! Check out #MyMasterpiece now.”
Written by Rucker together with Josh Osborne, J.T. Harding and Ross Copperman, the same foursome behind the recent No. 1 hit, the new song offers a swaying melody and lyrics that prize true love over all else:
I never had a silver spoon I didn’t grow up in a castle
I never walked on the moon I’ll never paint a Sistine Chapel
I can’t play piano like Ray Charles But baby when my life is through
I hope they say my masterpiece is loving you
“One of the most common questions I got asked last year was if I had picked up a new hobby during quarantine,” shares the three-time GRAMMY winner. “I always answered that I was trying to learn piano, and someone asked if I was any good yet. J.T. Harding heard my response in that interview – ‘I can’t play piano like Ray Charles’ – and knew we had to write a song around that line.”
