Blake Shelton just released a modern country-gospel song called "Jesus Got a Tight Grip" that he co-wrote with the same woman who helped him with his last holy hit.

Jessi Alexander joins Shelton, Chase McGill and Rhett Akins as co-writers on "Jesus Got a Tight Grip," a song released to digital service providers on Tuesday (Oct. 15, 2019). She also co-wrote "Savior's Shadow" with him for his If I'm Honest album (2016), comparing it to Kris Kristofferson's "Why Me Lord?"

Gail Varnado: @onefortheroad Just love this song...again a new one for me...I enjoy getting my listen on in the late evenings and hearing such a great performance Keith...You are a star quality singer...

Keith Wallin: onefortheroad Thank you very much, Gail! I am glad to see you in the front row and I'm glad you are enjoying my performances. I'm glad you think I'm a star quality singer but, the truth is there are literally 1000s of great singers, like Jerry in this country, that never get a shot at the big time. I am just content to perform my songs for my karaoke friends. After awhile, you folks are like my second family....lol Appreciate you, my friend....:-)

Keith Wallin: @jerry 1 Corinthians 10:13 "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it." I think the lyrics reflect respect to our Lord for never abandoning us in our times of strife. Singing it lifted my spirits.

Keith Wallin: @tonishow That's great, Toni. Personally, I sing all genres of music from 40s Big Band to 50s Rock and Roll, 60s/70s/80s Rock and of course Country music. I'm glad you are expanding your horizons. Break out of that plain Vanilla mode and experience Rocky Road, Chocolate Mint and Pistachio....lol Glad you are enjoying it here. We are glad to have you and your Mom here with us. This is a FUN site!!!....:-)

Toni Tibbs: @onefortheroad I'll work on it. Mint choc is probably tolerable, but me and nuts don't agree so I'll pass. Lol I really do like LOTS of different kinds of music, I'm not as familiar with the newer country artists as you or any genre as you are, but listening to your songs is a great way to remedy that. Thx

Toni Tibbs: @onefortheroad no opera in the repertoire?? It's pretty plain Jane so understandable. Right on

Keith Wallin: @tonishow I can do “Mack The Knife” from “3 Penny Opera”. Does that count?.....lol

Toni Tibbs: @onefortheroad of course. Kind of vanilla for opera but everybody has to start somewhere. I look forward to hearing anything that you sing. ;)

Keith Wallin: @tonishow How about Andrea Bocelli. He is an Italian opera singer and I sing his version of Besame Mucho. Will that work?
Aug 8th 2020, 6:23 pm Report
Toni Tibbs: @onefortheroad Bocelli. Ok bring it. Why am I not surprised? I believe you can probably sing anything. Can't wait. :)

Toni Tibbs: @onefortheroad of course,, "Mack the Knife" is a staple and I'd love to hear it, too. Whatever you want to do, I'll be tuned in for sure!
