Flashback Friday: Mary Chapin Carpenter

by User ImageHeather on June 20th, 2008

The mega-wattage on this stage during Mary Chapin Carpenter’s live music video of “He Thinks He’ll Keep Her” from 1993 gives me the goosebumps!

Mary Chapin is joined onstage by Trisha Yearwood, Patty Loveless, Emmylou Harris, Kathy Mattea, Suzy Bogguss and Pam Tillis during a “Women of Country” special on CBS.

The song itself (which did not include the guest singers) was nominated for a Grammy and is said to have been inspired by a Geritol commercial from the 70’s wherein a man describes all of his wife’s accomplishments and ends with “My wife…I think I’ll keep her.” The song takes a different turn halfway through, though, when the woman throws the husband out!
