Episode description

Melody, harmony, and lyrics all meticulously and perfectly set a specifically bittersweet tone on Billy Dean's 1991 classic: "Somewhere in My Broken Heart".  One listen to this cut will tell you that it's a beautiful song.  But why?  What specific, nuanced details of this tune and these words strike such a distinct chord with us, both literally and figuratively?

Also, here's a link Dean's interview by The Tennessean that we reference several times in this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEuHk54daVg.
