"My Darling Oklahoma"

The title track from Adam Miller's debut Singer/Songwriter E.P.

My Darling Oklahoma is Miller's love song to the state.

“It is literally just this love song for the place. Even if you are here and you remain here and live here, sometimes you still want to go find the world far from here and explore,” explained Miller of the song. “In the first lines, 'I'm giving this one to you my darling Oklahoma, and I know my love comes far away. Please don't hold it against me if I long to see me a world far from you' meaning, I know where you are, and I love this place, but I'm still going to go explore this world.”

The song has an almost hauntingly beautiful tune, created in part by the poignant fiddle playing and the expressive vocals. Miller's voice has that rare quality of being both honey smooth and slightly rough around the edges which gives it a depth of emotion. This tune has plenty of Oklahoma symbolism woven through it, while still feeling genuine and true and not overly cliched.
