We are so honored to exclusively premiere our dear friend Kelly Lang's 'Behind The Song' featuring "Midnight Train To Georgia" by Gladys Knight. Lang's rendition of "Midnight Train To Georgia" was released on June 3rd, 2022.

"I’m so grateful that Center Stage magazine is premiering my video of Behind The Song , “Midnight Train To Georgia.” If the fans out there are like me, I just love to hear the backstories of how my favorite songs come to be, and I hope you all will enjoy seeing this as much as I did making it."~ Kelly

Music inspires everyone uniquely. While one song may make you cry because of the heartfelt story within it, another might give you the words to express how you have felt because you can relate to the situation it contains. We all have our favorite songs that we gravitate towards depending on our moods. As fans, we often wonder what our favorite artists like to listen to and why. Lang's 'Behind The Song' is not only a glimpse into her "Why?", but it is also packed with fun information about the artist and song that you may not have known. I cannot wait for more of these videos. ~Missy
