"You Can Go Home" is a single by American country rock band The Desert Rose Band. The song was released as the lead single in 1991 from the band's fourth studio album ''True Love''. It was also the band's third single release of 1991 in total. == Background == Continuing the band's commercial decline on both the American and Canadian Country Singles Charts, the single was commercially unsuccessful, just like the ''True Love'' album, which failed to chart altogether. The commercial slide began for the band at the beginning of 1991, whilst the single itself fared better on the charts in comparison to the previous 1991 single "Come a Little Closer". "You Can Go Home" peaked at number 53 on the American Billboard Hot Country Songs, after originally debuting at number 61. In Canada, the single peaked at number 64 on the RPM Country Singles Chart for a total of eight weeks, after debuting at a lowly number 95 in October. The song was written by the band's frontman Chris Hillman and American musician and singer-songwriter Jack Tempchin, who is best known for writing The Eagles 1972 hit "Peaceful Easy Feeling". It was produced by American country music record producer and pianist Tony Brown, who produced the entire ''True Love'' album.〔 For the ''True Love'' album, Curb Records released a press release, which spoke of the song in comparison to the album which "balances elements of traditional country music with bold new ideas", whilst the song's themselves focus on "adult relationships" and "the heart of country music", noting that the songs display "feelings that come from the heart, but the attitude is one of introspection rather than overt display". The press release stated "The first single, co-written by Hillman and Jack Tempchin, illustrates this unique combination of elements with a thoughtful truism expressed as a traditional country hook line: "You can go home (but you can't go back)."〔http://www.drb-fans.com/images/reviews/DRB%201991%2009-01.pdf〕 In an October 27, 1991, issue of the Palm Beach Post, it was stated that three tracks from the ''True Love'' album would be included in the November playlist for the fantasy pirate radio station Y-NOT, which consisted of "Glory and Power", "You Can Go Home" and "It Takes a Believer".〔http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&gl=uk&tbm=nws&q=desert+rose+hillman+can+home+true&oq=desert+rose+hillman+can+home+true&gs_l=news-cc.3..43j43i400.1636.9395.0.9512.35.4.1.30.31.0.79.123.4.4.0...0.0...1ac.1.Ovg3lXw8zXU#q=desert+rose+hillman+can+home+true&hl=en&gl=uk&tbs=ar:1&tbm=nws&psj=1&ei=HiWDUNf9KOmY0QXIp4DoAw&start=10&sa=N&fp=1&bpcl=35466521&biw=1280&bih=587&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&cad=b&sei=vbqDUJq4J8qH0AWB9oCoBQ〕 In an August 1993 article from Billboard Magazine, Hillman spoke of the single's performance in relation to the record company pressure the band endured with the ''True Love'' album. Hillman stated "We were mildly seduced by the record company to go into a direction which they felt would break us through. So we compromised on a lot of things. We got resistance at radio on the first single "You Can Go Home", and the record company bailed." 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「You Can Go Home」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
