Roughstock's Memorial Day Playlist

While they should constantly be in our thoughts and prayers, the soldiers who so bravely serve and protect us are given two major holiday's, Memorial Day in late May and Veteran's Day in early September.  Here's a playlist to honor those we lost for Memorial Day.

Trace Adkins - "Arlington"

Telling the story of a solider who gets buried in the most sacred of military burial grounds, "Arlington" is expertly performed with grace and humility by one of modern country music's greatest vocalists: Trace Adkins.  The story has a sweet twist to it as well as the young man meets his grandfather in the hallowed grounds of Arlington.

Billy Ray Cyrus - "Some Gave All"

People forget that when Billy Ray Cyrus released a quality album outside of "Achy Breaky Heart" in 1992. In fact, that song really overlooked "Some Gave All," a song which is a beautifully written tribute to all who serve, not just those who passed away but those who survived to tell the stories.  Watch the video here:
