Planet Texas
Age: 36 born March 27, 1989
"Planet Texas" is a song written by John Andrew Parks III, and recorded by American country music artist Kenny Rogers. It was released in May 1989 as the second single from the album Something Inside So Strong.
The song tells the story of the narrator's encounter with extraterrestrials who take him on a journey through outer space. Upon returning to Earth, he asks the alien visitors of their origin; they reply they are from a planet called Texas, "the biggest place in outer space" (a nod to Texas' "larger than life" notoriety). Rogers described the song as "the most unique song" he had done in many years.read more
