Social media has been buzzing with news that professional golfer, John Daly, has been getting radio play on SiriusXM The Highway.

John’s song, Hit It Hard, has apparently been just added to the playlist. And from the responses on Twitter it seems like people are really digging it.

I’m a huge fan of golf. I’m not that good, but I love it. And John Daly has been my favorite golfer since I saw him on TV winning the British Open when I was about ten years old.

So here is John’s new song.

Hit It Hard – John Daly

I love this song.

John is very honest with his music. But if you’ve ever seen him in an interview you know that’s exactly who he is all the time. He’s an open book. He’s not afraid to talk about the things he’s done in his life. He’s quite the character and people love it. I think in a way, all of John’s fans are inspired by his honesty.

The fact that this song is getting played on SiriusXM now caught me off guard. The album that John put out came out back in 2010. I actually wrote a review on one of the songs back then – I Only Know One Way.

I’m not sure if John is putting some effort into promoting this or if he’s buddies with one of the DJs at SiriusXM. Either way, I think this song is becoming a hit. I don’t know if we’ll see it on the charts, but that would be pretty awesome.

This was also not the first album that John put out. I think his first came out around 2004. That one I think is only available on CD and had the classic, All My Exes Wear Rolexes.

This album has some really key imagery and insight into John. He’s an open book on this song and on every song on the record. There are upbeat songs and some ballads.

He’s a little country. He’s a little rock.

He’s just honest and that’s why he remains one of the most popular golfers on the PGA Tour.

I pull for him every week especially in the majors.
