And People Thought It Was Such a Big Deal When Beyoncé Did That Sgt. Carter Shit

Country music? Please enjoy some by that guy from an old British band -- Ringo Starr (with the great Alison Krauss in there somewhere).

Specifically, "Thankful," the closing number from Ringo's new album/cultural artifact Look Up. Produed by the also great T-Bone Burnett.

Okay, that track isn't itself objectively great, objectively, but if you don't get a little verklempt listening to it you really need to seek medical attention.
