Chris Cagle's Turbulent Love Life Was Basis For 'Miss Me Baby'

Yahoo! Music, Nov 7, 2005 2:00 pm PST
Chris Cagle has a hit on his hands with his latest single, "Miss Me Baby," but the memories of writing the song are anything but happy. Cagle said that the tune was inspired by a difficult time in his relationship with his ex-girlfriend. "Tammy and I were in a fight and she wasn't answering my calls," Cagle said, "and I even resorted to calling her dad, you know, like, 'What's up?' and he's like, 'Buddy, I think you lost her,' and I was just like, 'Is she dating? Is she going out?' and he was like, 'I think so.' I was just like, 'Wow,' so it was kind of vengeful -- kind of like the essence of 'You Better Kiss Me You're Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone' or 'You'll Think Of Me,' you know, Keith Urban's hit."

"Miss Me Baby" is the debut release from Cagle's new album, Anywhere But Here. The album's title aptly describes how Cagle said he felt during the making of this project. "Everybody tries to write these so positive and so this and so that, and that's all good and there's a place for it, but for me, that's not where I was at in my life,” Cagle said. "I wanted to be anywhere but there as an artist when I was making that record. It's just the snapshot of where I was at that moment in time. I wanted to be through it."

Cagle continues to tour with a show Tuesday (November 8) night in Jacksonville, Florida.
