Will’s Song Goes Gold!

Posted by on May 30, 2013 in Updates | 24 Comments

It’s official — Blake Shelton’s latest album, “Based on a True Story”, is now certified gold. 

That means that over 500,000 people now have a copy of Will’s co-written song, “Do You Remember?” in their hands/iPods/etc.

The news visited Will and Angie earlier than the public, and below are some pictures from that presentation.

We’re confident this is the first of many gold records for Will, and are thankful for the chance to celebrate this achievement in his professional life. Many in our #GoTeamGray network already know the immense musical talent Will possesses. We love seeing it recognized in the mainstream musical world!

#GoTeamGray celebrates with you, Will. Many, many congrats. And here’s to many more.

    Thanks to God for this incredible joy! Praying for you and those caring for you.

    Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. (James 1:2-4 ESV)
