(i.e. marketing) On Valentines Day 2006, Howard Stern debuted the new, and quite timely, song from Willie Nelson titled Cowboys Are Secretly, Frequently (Fond Of Each Other) during his Sirius Satellite Radio morning program.
Cowboys Are Secretly, Frequently (Fond Of Each Other) was written in 1981 by Texas-born, NYC resident musician/songwriter Ned Sublette, long before gay cowboys were the current topic of conversation. Nelson recorded the song last year during an iTunes Originals session at his Perdernales, TX studio. This is the first time Nelsons version has been released. Lost Highway will release Cowboys Are Secretly, Frequently (Fond Of Each Other) exclusively through iTunes beginning on Valentines Day, February 14. Plans for a video by the Broken Lizard Comedy Troupe (Super Troopers, Club Dread) are in the works as well. The video will also be available for purchase exclusively through iTunes in the spring. Stay tuned.[see full story to get the song at iTunes]

What part of "1981 was WAY before 1996" don't you understand?

The Reverend Horton Heat had "Cowboy Love" way back in 1996... this is nothing new.
