Diamond Rio is an American country music band. The band was founded in 1982 as an attraction for the Opryland USA theme
park in Nashville,
Tennessee, and was originally known as the Grizzly
River Boys, then the Tennessee River Boys. It was founded by Matt Davenport,
Danny Gregg, and Ty Herndon, the
last of whom became a solo artist in the mid-1990s. After undergoing several
membership changes in its initial years, the band has consisted of the same six
members since 1989: Marty Roe (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Gene Johnson
(mandolin, guitar, fiddle, tenor vocals), Jimmy Olander (lead guitar, banjo),
Brian Prout (drums), Dan Truman (keyboards), and Dana Williams (bass guitar,
baritone vocals).
After assuming the name Diamond Rio, the band
was signed to Arista Nashville and debuted in 1991 with the single "Meet in the Middle",
which made them the first band ever to send a debut single to Nº 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts. The band charted 32 more singles between then and 2006,
including four more that reached Nº 1: "How Your Love
Makes Me Feel" (1997), "One More Day"(2001),
"Beautiful
Mess"(2002), and "I Believe"(2003).
Diamond
Rio has recorded nine studio albums, four Greatest Hits compilations, and an
album of Christmas music. Three of the band's albums have
achieved RIAA platinum
certification in the United States. In addition, Diamond Rio has received four
Group of the Year awards from the Country Music
Association, two Top Vocal Group awards from
the Academy of
Country Music, and one Grammy Award. The
band is known for its vocal harmonies, varied instrumentation, and
near-exclusive use of only its own membership on recordings instead of session musicians. Their
sound was originally defined by mainstream country, bluegrass, and rock influences, but
later albums drew more influence from Christian country music and country pop.
"One More Day" is a song written by
Bobby Tomberlin and Steven Dale Jones, and recorded by American country music group Diamond Rio. It was
released in October 2000 as the second single and title track from their álbum One More Day,
in addition to gaining popularity after the death of NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt. The
song reached the top of the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) chart.
It peaked at number 29 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it a minor crossover
hit. After falling from the charts, it received heavy recurrent rotation as a tribute to the people who died in the September
11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
Last night I had a
crazy dream
A wish was granted just for me
It could be for anything
I didn't ask for money
Or a mansion in Malibu
I simply wished for one more day with you
One more day, one
more time
One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again, I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still for one more day with you
One more day
First thing I'd do is
pray for time to crawl
I'd unplug the telephone and keep the TV off
I'd hold you every second
Say a million I love you's
That's what I'd do with one more day with you
One more day, one
more time
One more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still for one more day with you
One more day, one
more time
One more sunset maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still for one more day
Leave me wishing still for one more day
Leave me wishing still for one more day with you
One more day (one
more day).
