when is ask me how i know coming out
Ask Me How I Know "Ask Me How I Know" is a song recorded by American country music singer Garth Brooks, and written by Mitch Rossell. It was released on March 17, 2017 as the second single off Brooks's 2016 album, Gunslinger.[1][2] The single's release coincided with the announcement of Brooks performing at South by Southwest, as well as the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. It became his first number one song since "More Than a Memory" in 2007.[3][4]
A Change Is Gonna Come The song was inspired by various personal events in Cooke's life, most prominently an event in which he and his entourage were turned away from a whites-only motel in Louisiana. Cooke felt compelled to write a song that spoke to his struggle and of those around him, and he recorded the song for its first release on his final album, Ain't That Good News.[citation needed] The song, released in 1964, pertains to the Civil Rights Movement and African Americans, and contains the refrain, "It's been a long time coming, but I know a change is gonna come."
