.garthbrooks remembers Busbee, who co-wrote his 2014 comeback hit PeopleLovingPeople
Garth Brooks performs onstage during MusiCares Person of the Year honoring Dolly Parton at Los Angeles Convention Center on Feb. 8, 2019 in Los Angeles.was combing through hundreds of songs for 2014’sone song immediately stood out: “People Loving People,” co-written by busbee, Lee Thomas Miller and Chris Wallin. The song became the album's lead single.
Busbee, whose real name was Michael James Ryan, died Saturday from glioblastoma after only being diagnosed months before. Other artists the Grammy-nominated songwriter and producer wrote for included Maren Morris, Keith Urban, Lady Antebellum and P!nk. “People Loving People” made the gentle statement that loving each other was “the enemy of everything that’s evil” and that we didn’t need powerbrokers to make a difference; all we needed was to be kinder to each other.
The uplifting song followed the messages espoused in Brooks’ 1992 song “We Shall Be Free,” a song the superstar co-wrote, and 1995’s “The Change,” written by “The Dance” author Tony Arata and Wayne Tester. “I loved it,” Brooks tells of “People Loving People.” “He did it without preaching. ‘We Shall Be Free’ is preachy. I don’t say that in a negative sense at all. [Busbee] just found a way to state it matter-of-factly, and you can’t argue with that. You just heard it and loved it.
Brooks released “People Loving People” in September 2014. Like “We Shall Be Free” and “The Change,” the song became the rare Brooks single not to crack the top 10 on Billboard'sThe pair never wrote together but had a few warm conversations about the song when they would run into each other.
