Here's the story so far on Bucky Covington's new single for our many first-time readers today. (Thanks for stopping in, and welcome!)

If you'd like to hear a long clip, head over to WKRN in Nashville, where entertainment reporter/blogger Brad Schmitt has kindly posted a sample of "Different World" for your listening pleasure. (Thank you, sir!)

"Different World" made its live debut during the recent GAC Country Christmas tour in November and December of 2006; if you'd like to watch and listen to a live version of the song, there are several great fan-contributed videos available at You Tube--enjoy!

The song made its satellite radio debut on Sirius' New Country (Channel 60) on Christmas Day, and was featured on the station's "Beyond the Buzz" show December 30th. "Different World"'s FM radio debut happened yesterday on Fayetteville's WKML 95.7, and it lit up the phones enough to top the station's "Top 5 at 6" countdown last night. (If you'd like to hear it again, the chances are excellent that it'll be on the countdown this evening, as well--the station offers online streaming, so be sure to tune in at 6 Eastern.)

Bucky's official site is BuckyCovingtonMusic.com; his official MySpace has been quiet since the American Idol finale, but there's a very well-run unofficial MySpace, Bucky Covington Fans, with frequent bulletins and freshly updated news. (There are also lots of nicely done fan sites for Bucky; please see our sidebar, and have fun browsing!) Finally, Bucky was signed to Lyric Street Records in late December; chances are good that the label will have updates on Bucky's upcoming CD very soon.

Thanks again--stop back later!
