Megan Moroney: Am I Okay? [Columbia Nashville, 2024]
Moroney has writing credit on all 13 of these varied and well-crafted songs about romantic bliss gone bad and nothing but romantic bliss gone bad, although an actual-count 15 song doctors, 10 of them male, also pitch in on between one and six of them. Key indicators include "I'd sound good with your last name," "Mama I lied he ain't a good guy," "When I lie down next to him/I'd rather be with you," "Bet you didn't think you'd wind up in a song," "two months deep in therapy," "another three-six-five have come and gone," "I see your truck and I don't give a," "I hope you're happy as can be/I hope it don't get back to me," and the magnificent and quite literal in its fanciful way "Yeah it hurt like hell/But hell it could have been worse/At least my whole world left me for Miss Universe."
