Late last year, when Little Big Town first released their current single, “Girl Crush,” with a smoldering lead vocal from the group’s Karen Fairchild, the song’s provocative lyrics were supposedly leading some country stations to ban the tune, with listeners complaining about a message they misinterpreted as being about lesbian love. The song’s success, however, is an undeniable fact, and this week, “Girl Crush” spends a record-breaking 11th week in the Number One spot on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.
“Girl Crush” was the brainchild of seasoned writers Lori McKenna, Liz Rose and Hillary Lindsey, collectively known as the Love Junkies.
