Rascal Flatts es uno de esos nombres que resuenan con fuerza en la historia de la música country. Desde sus humildes comienzos hasta convertirse en superestrellas internacionales, su viaje ha sido inspirador. El grupo, conocido por sus voces armoniosas y su capacidad para evocar emociones profundas, ha dejado una huella indeleble en el panorama musical.
La historia de Rascal Flatts se remonta a finales de la década de 1990, en Columbus, Ohio. El grupo está compuesto por Gary LeVox (vocalista principal), Jay DeMarcus (bajista y vocalista) y Joe Don Rooney (guitarrista y vocalista). Jay y Gary son primos y habían estado tocando juntos en clubes locales cuando decidieron que era momento de formar una banda. Joe Don se unió a ellos poco tiempo después, y juntos encontraron una química musical incomparable.
En 1999, la banda firmó un contrato con Lyric Street Records, y al año siguiente lanzaron su álbum debut homónimo, Rascal Flatts. El álbum incluyó éxitos como "Prayin' for Daylight" y "I'm Movin' On", que rápidamente se colocaron en los primeros lugares de las listas country. La mezcla de melodías pegajosas y letras emotivas capturó la atención de millones de oyentes.
El lanzamiento de su segundo álbum, Melt, en 2002, consolidó su lugar en la industria. La canción "These Days" se convirtió en su primer sencillo número uno en las listas de Billboard de música country. Tras este éxito, el grupo lanzó en 2004 Feels Like

[Verse 1]
You must have been in a
Place so dark
You couldn't feel the light
Reachin' for you through
That stormy cloud
Now here we are
Gathered in our little hometown
This can't be the way
You meant to draw a crowd
[Chorus]
Oh why, that's what I keep asking
Was there anything I could've
Said or done
Oh, I had no clue you were masking
A troubled soul, God only knows
What went wrong and why
You would leave the stage
In the middle of a song
[Verse 2]
Now in my mind I'll keep you frozen
As a seventeen-year-old
Rounding third to score the winning run
You always played with passion
No matter what the game
When you took the stage
You'd shine just like the sun
[Chorus]
Oh why, that's what I keep asking
Was there anything I could've
Said or done
Oh, I had no clue you were masking
A troubled soul, , God only knows
What went wrong and why
You would leave the stage
In the middle of a song
[Bridge]
Now the oak trees are swaying
In the early autumn breeze
A golden sun is shining on my face
Through tangled thoughts
I hear a mockingbird sing
This old world really ain't that
Bad of a place
[Chorus]
Oh why, there's no comprehending
And who am I to try to judge or explain
Oh, but I do have one burning question
Who told you life wasn't worth the fight
They were wrong, they lied
Now you're gone and we cry
Cause it's not like you to walk away
In the middle of a song
[Outro]
Your beautiful song
Your absolutely beautiful song3
