Tracy Lawrence admits one of his biggest hits was a song he just didn't like. So he made a compromise.

Tracy Lawrence is revisiting and updating his catalogue with the Hindsight 2020 trilogy of albums. Many of the songs are 20 or even 30 years old, which means enough time has passed for the singer to admit there were some he was strongly encouraged to record.
At least one of those songs worked out well for him on two different levels. Talking to Taste of Country Nights, Lawrence - who just dropped Vol. 2: Price of Fame in August - makes a strong case for compromise. Hits like "I See It Now" and "If the World Had a Front Porch" are mixed with new songs like the title-track (an Eddie Montgomery collaboration) and "I'm a Man," his wife's favorite. These are all new recordings, which could be problematic.
"I wish I hadn't of down such range-y songs," he says laughing as he thinks about that studio time. "Those really high notes are a challenge sometimes."
"Somebody Paints the Wall" and "Find Out Who Your Friends Are" are two more old songs made new. Each of his eight No. 1 singles seems likely to find a home somewhere on one of the three albums, but then again maybe not.
In addition to sharing secrets of his catalog he also dishes on who some of his famous friends are, 15 years after taking "Find Out Who Your Friends Are" to No. 1. Finally, the 53-year-old takes the 60-Second Song Challenge and reveals which contemporary pop superstar he's a huge fan of.
