You’ve seen the inspirational quotes on “Not everyone will like you, no matter how hard you try…” “stay true to yourself…” and so on. Brothers Osborne‘s latest song, “I’m Not For Everyone,” could also be an inspirational quote for those who feel they aren’t like everyone else. John and TJ Osborne say the song, which is making its way up the country charts, shows it’s okay being a little different and not for everyone, which just about everyone can relate to at some point in their lives.
“That IS our mission statement, ‘cause we ARE not for everyone,” says John Osborne. “I think at some point, not only in your career, but your life as a human being, you can’t make everyone happy. We have spoken up so many times, and we have, I wouldn’t say we’ve paid much of a price, but we’ve pissed a lot of people off by being ourselves. (TJ LAUGHS) We just have to accept that no matter we are not for everybody and you have to be okay with that. And this is the first song where I actually, I sing a verse on, which is perfect because this song in particular is the both of us saying we’re not everybody’s cup of tea and that’s okay.”
The duo is taking their We’re Not For Everyone Tour, featuring Travis Denning and Tenille Townes, to Ashville, North Carolina on Thursday (September 30th), Atlanta, Georgia on Friday (October 1st) and Jacksonville, Florida on Saturday (October 2nd).
