George Strait’s Son Is A Talented Rodeo Cowboy and Songwriter
George Strait’s son, Bubba Strait, is the very definition of the saying, “Like father, like son.” He grew up to be a fan of two things his dad loved the most – team roping and, of course, country music. Not only that, but Bubba also excelled in them. So it isn’t surprising that the country music icon is proud of him. Oh, and he also seems to have inherited his handsome looks from his father. Who is Bubba Strait? Bubba Strait was born as George Harvey Strait Jr. on May 14, 1981. He is the second child and only son of the country music icon with his wife, Norma Strait. He attended university at Texas A&M, where he began his competitive rodeo career. Soon after graduating, he became a team roper of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA). And this was something that he and his father bonded over. According to George Strait, it was the greatest feeling to watch his son roping or even just watch him compete just like he did in the 2006 Houston Livestock and Rodeo. He also added that he and Bubba had been lucky to win a couple of buckles together and that for him was the ultimate thing. RELATED: George Strait Songs That Made A Permanent Mark On Country Music But aside from that, the father and son also share the same passion for songwriting. In fact, Bubba has around 30 song credits off of his father’s albums since 2009. He has worked alongside many of the biggest names in songwriting in the industry, including Dean Dillon. The two co-wrote “Living for the Night” with George Strait for the first single off of George’s hit 2009 album “Twang.” Bubba also collaborated for 2 more songs on the record and even wrote one himself entitled “Arkansas Dave.” And he also performs occasionally on stage with his famous father, although it’s a very rare occurrence. Nevertheless, their performances never fail to ring in applause. What is he doing right now? Currently, George Strait’s son Bubba and his wife Tamara, who is a successful realtor, are living at Texas Hill with their two children, Jillian Louise, and George Harvey Strait III. Though he may have had talent in songwriting, he never really pursued a music career like his father. But he still carries on, and hopefully, he would share more country music classics straight from the Strait family. And as for George Strait’s wife Norma and him, the two are still happily married and will soon celebrate 50 years of marriage.
George Strait Was A Real Country Hero In His Performance of “I Cross My Heart”
George Strait is known for several songs, but “I Cross My Heart” stood out as one of the most treasured and memorable hits ever recorded by the living legend. Released in 1992 as the first single to his album Pure Country, the song reached No. 1 in Canada and the United States. Undoubtedly, “I Cross My Heart” has become a country fan favorite. It Took Ten Years Before The Song Found Its Way To George Strait Written by Steve Dorff and Eric Kaz, “I Cross My Heart” was originally thought to be “a Boyz II Men kind of song.” “We demoed it that way. It’s a great demo. Done in this very cool, R&B, vibey, Boyz II Men thing.” Dorff revealed, who said he and Kaz wrote the song in just an hour. The duo then played the song for a bunch of people only to get a response of, “Not one of your best, Steve.” RELATED: George Strait Sings “I Cross My Heart” To Wife Norma On Their 50th Anniversary Singer Bette Midler has also rejected the song. “Bette just doesn’t like herself on this. It’s not working for her. We tried. We went in again. We sang it three, four times. She’s just not happy with it, so we’re going to take it off the album,” music producer Arif Mardin told Dorff to his disappointment. It took ten years for Dorff to find a home for “I Cross My Heart.” Finally, it found its way home to The King of Country Music and the closing credits of his 1992 film. George Strait and His Acting Debut “I Cross My Heart” was recorded as part of George Strait‘s soundtrack for the famed country movie, Pure Country. Strait, in his acting debut, took a starring role as the lead character named Dusty. Dusty was one of the biggest stars in country music, but he decided to give up his career and went back to his youth’s country town in an effort to become grounded. After finding a job at a ranch, he fell in love with the farm owner’s daughter, Harley Tucker. However, his manager was determined to keep the show going for him. At the end of the movie, Dusty can be seen performing on the edge of the stage, playing guitar, and singing one of the most poignant and sweet songs ever in front of an audience that included the woman of his dreams. You can see that the song moved Harley as she wept tears of love and joy for her country hero while staring into each other’s eyes across the room. “I cross my heart and promise to give all I’ve got to give to make all your dreams come true. In all the world, you’ll never find a love as true as mine,” the man sings. Isn’t it the most amazing display of love and romance? This scene from Pure Country will surely melt your heart and bring you to tears! However, despite Strait having an incredibly large fan base, the movie was considered a box office bomb. Pure Country was surprisingly unsuccessful at the box office with a gross of over $15 million against a $10 million budget. But even if the movie didn’t meet expectations, the soundtrack became Strait’s most successful studio album. In addition to “I Cross My Heart,” it produced hits like “Heartland” and “When Did You Stop Loving Me.” The album went on selling more than six million copies. With such a commercial success, the movie scene where he was singing “I Cross My Heart” has become everyone’s favorite. You can see it for yourself in the video below.
RIGHT NOW!! Teoscar made a decision never seen before! It took fans by surprise! LA DODGERS NEWS
In a surprising turn of events, Teoscar Hernández, the Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder, has made a bold statement regarding the competitive landscape of Major League Baseball (MLB) during free agency. As the Dodgers continue to solidify their status as one of the league’s most dominant franchises, Hernández has expressed his commitment to the team and criticized the reluctance of other franchises to invest aggressively in their rosters. The Dodgers recently celebrated their eighth World Series title and are not resting on their laurels. The organization has been proactive in the offseason, bolstering their lineup with significant signings, including 2023 Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell and Japanese sensation Roki Sasaki. They also added four-time Gold Glove winner Ha-Seong Kim and strengthened their bullpen with Tanner Scott and Kirby Yates. Key returning players from the previous season, such as Tommy Edman and Blake Treinen, further enhance the team’s depth. In a recent appearance on the Foul Territory podcast, Hernández was candid about the attitudes of other teams during free agency. He noted that many franchises appeared more focused on financial balance than on assembling championship-caliber rosters. His remarks highlighted a stark contrast between the Dodgers’ aggressive approach to signing players and the hesitance exhibited by other teams. “If teams really want to win, they don’t go into free agency telling players that they need to make trades to free up payroll,” Hernández stated. “You simply sign the right players and act quickly.” Hernández’s comments resonate with the Dodgers’ philosophy of relentless pursuit of excellence. While some rivals have accused the team of monopolizing the market, Hernández defended the Dodgers by emphasizing that the league’s rules are the same for all teams. The disparity lies in how franchises choose to utilize those rules to their advantage. Despite the uncertainty that free agency can bring, Hernández’s priority was always to remain with the Dodgers. He has now secured his future in Los Angeles for at least three more seasons, aiming to contribute to another successful campaign for the team. His statements have sparked conversations among fans and analysts alike, raising questions about the commitment of other teams to win. As the MLB offseason continues and teams gear up for the 2025 season, Hernández’s insights underscore the Dodgers’ determination to maintain their competitive edge. Fans are left to ponder: do other teams lack the same drive to win as the Dodgers? The debate is sure to ignite discussions among baseball enthusiasts, as the landscape of the league continues to evolve. For those following the Dodgers closely, it’s a time of excitement and anticipation as the franchise prepares for another season with a roster that reflects their ambitious goals. As Hernández looks ahead, he remains focused on contributing to the Dodgers’ legacy of success while challenging the status quo in the league.
