“And if it looks like we were scared to death/ Like a couple of kids just tryin’ to save each other/ You should’ve seen it in color.”
Jamey Johnson’s award-winning 2008 hit “In Color” - a song about looking back at old black and white photos from World War II and beyond - was actually first inspired by old shots shown at Nashville’s annual BMI Awards.
