"Winner at a Losing Game" is a song written and recorded by American country music group Rascal Flatts. It was released in October 2007 as the second single from their album ''Still Feels Good'', as well as their nineteenth chart single overall. The song peaked at number 2 on the ''Billboard'' Hot Country Songs charts in February 2008. The song is part of the tracklist for "Now That's What I Call Country". ==History== Rascal Flatts' three members (Gary LeVox, Jay DeMarcus, and Joe Don Rooney) wrote the song on their tour bus after a show late one night.〔Tucker, Ken (25 August 2007), "CAN RASCAL REPEAT?" ''Billboard''. 119 (34):20-22〕 According to DeMarcus, the trio began a conversation about their musical influences, when the Eagles, a popular soft rock band, was mentioned. Inspired by the fact that they would be performing with the Eagles at the 2007 Grammy Awards, the trio decided to write a song that was stylistically similar to the music of the Eagles. All three members then began to write the song that night. They came up with a verse and chorus that, according to ''Country Weekly'', "achingly express() a feeling we have all experienced — loving someone who just doesn't love you the same way".〔 The next day, DeMarcus added the hook "If love is really forever, then I'm a winner at a losing game", and the song was soon finished. LeVox, the lead singer of Rascal Flatts, considers the song special because it is the first single to be written entirely by the band's three members.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Winner at a Losing Game」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
