Straight and Narrow (song)
"Straight and Narrow" is a song by American country singer Sam Barber, first released on November 30, 2022 as the lead single from his EP Million Eyes (2023).[1] It became his breakout hit through exposure on the video-sharing app TikTok and also appears on his debut studio album Restless Mind (2024). BackgroundSam Barber wrote the song when he was 16 years old. He was trying to write music that "sounded good" to him and did not feel like the song would be important to him at the time.[2][3] Although he recorded his earliest music from voice memos on his phone, he decided on a higher-quality recording for "Straight and Narrow" and recorded it with a microphone in a bedroom.[2] In November 2022, about a year after being discovered by his managers, Barber released the song. It received little attention until April 2023, after it was used on TikTok. The song subsequently gained traction on the platform and propelled Barber to mainstream popularity.[3] Composition"Straight and Narrow" is an acoustic guitar-based song with lyrics about persevering through times of adversity.[2] Charts
