Shoulda Been a Hit: Rebecca Lynn Howard’s “I Don’t Paint Myself Into Corners” [Video]
Devoted Trisha Yearwood fans will remember this song. In 2002, Trisha featured "I Don't Paint Myself into Corners" on her CD Inside Out. She even released it, but it failed make much of an impact. Her version stalled out at #47 on the Billboard Country Music Charts. While that may not seem impressive at all, it actually fared better than the original version written and recorded by Rebecca Lynn Howard. It was the 3rd release off Rebecca's debut CD and served as a showcase for Rebecca's vocal acrobatics. This gal could write and she most definitely could sing. But none of the singles on her debut CD took and this one was most disappointing. "I Don't Paint Myself into Corners" stalled at #71 on the charts. Take a listen and you'll agree . . . it SHOULDA been a hit!
