Travis Tritt’s 1991 song “Anymore” is more than just a country hit; it’s a heartfelt tribute to the sacrifices of veterans. Co-written with Jill Colucci, the song topped charts in the U.S. and Canada, resonating with many for its emotional depth.

The accompanying music video adds a profound layer to the song’s message. Directed by Jack Cole, it features Tritt portraying Mac Singleton, a Vietnam War veteran adjusting to life in a wheelchair. The video delves into Singleton’s struggles with physical injuries and haunting war memories. With support from fellow veteran Al, Singleton embarks on a journey of healing and reconnecting with his wife, Annie.

The video’s impact was significant, leading to its recognition as the 64th greatest country music video by CMT. Its success inspired a trilogy, including “Tell Me I Was Dreaming” and “If I Lost You,” further exploring Mac Singleton’s story.

“Anymore” has touched many lives. Tritt shared a story of a fan who emerged from a coma after repeatedly hearing the song, highlighting music’s profound influence.
