"Before He Cheats" Has Huge Impact on Songwriters

February 11, 2008 — Last night's Grammy awards might be over, but the guys who won Best Country Song for writing Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats" planned to stay in California to do work. One of the benefits of success is that it generates more opportunities, and the two were asked to have a songwriting session with Lisa Marie Presley.

"I don't even know what she's doing," Chris Tompkins told The Tennessean, "but I [am] totally committed. I'll write with Elvis' daughter any day."


Chris and fellow writer Josh Kear were struggling before Carrie recorded "Before He Cheats." Now Josh and his wife have a new house and can afford health insurance, while Chris and his wife bought new cars and are looking for their first house.

The song made them successful, but now they find their biggest task is trying to write enough other quality material that people will see them for more than just the one title. Not that they're complaining.

"Instead of sitting around always being hopeful — 'Please let this one happen, please let this be the time everything changes' — everything already changed," Josh said. "But you come back the next day, you pick up your guitar or piano, and you fill up an empty page."

Big Grin This should be good! Lisa already knows how to write the kind of songs as CC put it "Kiss MY A*S*S*" and they just got their first break writing this kind of song. VERY INTERESTING indeed....absolutely can't wait to see what the lovely Lisa has in store!
