Interesting facts and trivia about Record Year. By Songfacts®.

Eric Church's woman has left him - but instead of finding comfort from his broken heart in another woman, the singer finds solace in his record player. The breakup has enabled Church to renew a love affair with his three-foot stack of vinyl and instead of sitting in silence and turning "this house into a jail," he's "having a record year."

The records name-checked in the lyrics are John Lee Hooker's "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer," Stevie Wonder's Songs In The Key of Life and Willie Nelson's Red Headed Stranger. George Jones, Waylon Jennings and James Brown are also referenced.

Eric Church wrote the song with his with long-time banjo player and guitarist Jeff Hyde. Their other collaborations include "Springsteen" (along with Ryan Tyndell), "Smoke a Little Smoke" (alongside other bandmate Driver Williams) and "Cold One" (along with Lynn Hutton).
