    • The Ceremony. On paper it’s a terrible idea for a song. George and Tammy singing their own wedding vows. In anyone else’s hands it would have been a complete disaster, but the troubled pair always found a way of making anything mawkish or overly melodramatic feel simple and oddly sweet without ever being cloying.
    • After The Fire Is Gone. Better known as a hit for Loretta Lynn and Conway Twitty in 1971, George and Tammy included their version on Let’s Build A World Together a couple of years later and imbued the romantic mini-tragedy with an almost painful amount of pathos.
    • Near You. Tammy and George had divorced in 1975 but they enjoyed their biggest chart successes from that point on. Their 1976 post-break up album spawned two chart toppers: the title track and a countrified version of this easy listening classic from the 1940s.
    • Southern California. Recorded in 1977 as a new song for their Greatest Hits album, the song tells the story of a woman who leaves her lover in Tennessee to move to California to follow her dreams of becoming a star, believing that "silver screens and limousines" are waiting for her there.
    • Unwed Fathers. Written by Bobby Braddock and John Prine, ‘Unwed Fathers’ was the first single off Even the Strong Get Lonely in 1983. Tammy pointedly weighs up the double standards of parenthood with a tale about a pregnant teenage girl catching a bus out of town to give birth without anyone knowing; not even the child’s father.
    • We’re Not The Jet Set. Another hit from Bobby Braddock’s pen, this perky duet with George Jones has the pair rhyming “Chevrolet” with “Flamin’ Suzette”.
    • Run, Woman, Run. No, it’s not Tammy suddenly suggesting a woman leaves an unhappy relationship in search of freedom and independence. The only direction she wants this woman to run is back towards her man, where she should immediately tell him how much she missed him - even if she didn’t - and try to fix her broken relationship; all before she risks it for the sake of future happiness and a potentially fulfilling life.
    • Kids Say The Darndest Things. Tammy fully embraces her twee side on this Billy Sherrill and Glenn Sutton cut from 1973. She slyly reveals the problems she’s having in her marriage by repeating the supposedly innocent comments and foul-mouthed insults her children keep coming out with when they’re playing.
