A Different World is the first single by American country musician, Bucky Covington, from his debut album Bucky. He performed it at Great American Country in December 2006, and the song was released for country radio on January 16, 2007. The song is produced by Mark Miller, and will be released by Lyric Street Records, a country label of Disney's Buena Vista Music Group.
The song is a reminiscence of Covington's formative years; its lyrics illustrate examples of how much the world has changed since he was a kid. Covington states during the chorus that it was "not just a different time / It was a different world". Though Covington was born in 1977, his song trades in a pleasant, yet completely manufactured faux-nostalgia as evidenced by his musical comments on the lack of bottled water, or seatbelts in cars, or video games or remote controls, although all these things were commonplace by the time of Covington's early childhood.
Bucky Covington - A Different World
Different world is a song that brings back so many memories for me and I took to it immediately, even though it wasn't my genre of music. I bought Bucky Covington's CD and it is the best CD I have in my collection. The southern rock with his unique gritty voice quality is amazing. If you heard him on American Idol, you haven't heard anything yet.
