8. “Monsters” by Eric Church

“Monsters” was released in September 2018. This song was written by Eric Church and Jeff Hyde. It is on the album “Desperate Man.” 

To me, this song is about how not all monsters are hiding under the bed and make believe. In a way, it’s a similar concept to “Scooby-Doo,” and how they show kids the real monsters are human, but obviously it’s explained in a different way, and the song and the children’s TV show are very different. This song is also about how he keeps his faith close by all the time, and while I may not be a very religious person myself, it’s a well-made country tune.
