The great thing about lyrics to a song is that they are open to interpretation by the listener.

I hate to even ask this question considering how conservative country music is anyway but you can't be too careful these days. The lyrics of "Believers" says: "Outside the courthouse on 5th and vine
There's a hundred people holdin' up their homemade signs
They say they'll be there sunshine or rain
'Till somebody listens, 'till somethin's changed"
A commentary says: "Nichols returns to the subject of faith with three vignettes: voters with unwavering faith in change lining up outside the courthouse, a couple taking a leap of faith at the wedding altar, and a mother who always believed her son would see the light finding redemption near the end of her life. Nichols says, “It’s also about believing in something bigger than what’s right in front of you. There have been a lot of times in my life, both recently and in the past, that I’ve needed a lot of belief just to move me forward. This song gives me that.”

So I want to know, is this a bunch of homos wanting to get married or maybe voters who voted for Obama and change? When I studied literature in school, I hated it when the teacher stated what the author intended, like she really knew, especially when the author is dead. But the author for Believers is not dead so I want to know what the author really meant.

Joe tweeted this week it the cd will be released Oct 27th!

Joe's new album, "Old Things New" is set for release September 29th. At least that's what word is. I have heard some of the other songs that are going to be on this album live over the past few months and I can tell you already it's going to be a great album!

Is it coming out this year????

I completely agree with you, "Believers" is an amazing and inspirational song. I can't wait for all of his new music and new album to come out later this year!

totally agree. i think it will.
