(antiMusic) Welcome to Singled Out! where we ask artists to tell us the inside story of their latest single. Today Pat McGee tells us about "Come Back Home" from his album "These Days (The Virginia Sessions)". We now turn it over to Pat for the story:

"Come Back Home was written in the wake of me losing my longtime drummer and former Army soldier John C. Williams. But the song started off as a reflection of how a military couple deals with separation. After the release of Come Back Home, Johns little brother was killed by an IED in Iraq. His name was Blake Williams. His platoon used this track as the audio to a memorial slide show presentation they did in March of 2008. It was for all the courageous men and women they had lost in the month of March.

"I am humbled by their service to our great country and I hope this song brings them some peace. My father served in Vietnam and I truly appreciate their dedication and bravery."

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, check out the slideshow video - right here!
