Garth Brooks' "Unanswered Prayers" a Lifetime Movie 

By Nancy Wilson

Good news Garth Brooks fans!  He's gonna be in a movie..well, not really, but his song "Unanswered Prayers" is!   A Lifetime original movie began filming yesterday in the Richmond, Virginia area based on the Garth hit, which is basically about a man who loves his wife, but is torn between her and his high school love.  In the song, Garth tells us the high school flame is the one he prayed would be his, but after seeing her again, thanks God his prayers went unanswered.  "Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers/ Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs/ That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care/ Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers."  Entertainment Weekly says Garth will be an executive producer on the film, which airs in November.  Eric Close from Without a Trace stars as the tortured husband, with Samantha Mathis as the wife and Madchen Amick as the high school girlfriend.  EW says Lifetime picked "Unanswered Prayers" over "the Dance" because it has a happier ending.   Read more here.  What is "your" country song?  One that reflects your life?   How about Brooks & Dunn's "Red Dirt Road" or Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now?"  Remember Reba's "Is There Life Out There" became a movie?   Not the greatest video of the song, but notice how the entire crowd sings along with Garth?
