After years of teasing it in his live shows and building high demand from his listeners, Parker McCollum\u2019s <\/a>fan-favorite song \u201cBig Ole Fancy House<\/a>\u201d is finally out now via MCA.<\/p>\n This tune quickly gained traction among the Texas native\u2019s audience for its powerful narrative that dives deep into the emptiness that can hide behind wealth and success. It\u2019s a confession delivered straight from McCollum\u2019s heart that leaves listeners hanging onto every word.<\/p>\n \u201cY\u2019all been asking for this one for a while so I\u2019m glad its finally getting to you,\u201d he shared. \u201cTook a couple of times of cutting it before it felt good enough to release, and I think I got it the way it should be heard. Appreciate all the love everyone has shown this song. Means a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n Speaking with Country Now backstage at Crash My Playa, the country star shared that the idea to write this vulnerable story came to him during a writing session at his home in South Texas with the Love Junkies, aka Lori McKenna, Hillary Lindsey and Liz Rose. The group of them came together over a weekend when McCollum\u2019s wife Hallie Ray Light was out of town.<\/p>\n During her absence, he realized that the \u201cBig Ole Fancy House\u201d they live in actually feel worthless without her love present to make it feel like a real home. McCollum also admits that this was a story that felt so personal and exciting to him that he recorded it three times until getting it right.<\/p>\n \u201cMy wife was out of town for the weekend, and we were writing songs and I kind of sitting around, missing her, being in that big old house without her,\u201d he explained. \u201cI was like, \u2018man, it\u2019s nice to have nice things, but it really doesn\u2019t mean much if you don\u2019t have the right people around you.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n![\"YouTube](\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/WGb8KVdqs6k\/hqdefault.jpg\"\/)
