A Challenge in Researching “Trying to Love Two Women”

Unfortunately, there seems to be a limited amount of publicly accessible, detailed historical information specifically about the song “Trying to Love Two Women” by The Oak Ridge Boys.

While the song is undoubtedly popular and well-known, the depth of available historical data on its creation, recording, or cultural impact appears to be relatively scarce.

Potential Reasons for Limited Information

  • Song Age: Released in 1980, the song is relatively old, and detailed documentation practices in the music industry were different then.
  • Genre: As a country song, it may not have garnered the same level of academic or critical analysis as other genres.
  • Song Theme: The song’s subject matter might have contributed to a more limited public discussion and subsequent documentation.

A Possible Approach

Given these limitations, we could focus on providing a general introduction to the song within the context of The Oak Ridge Boys’ career and the country music scene of the 1980s. This would involve discussing the group’s popularity, the overall musical landscape of the era, and the song’s potential place within that context.
