Tear Me Apart

Tear Me Apart is the 10th album by Tanya Tucker. Produced by British rocker Mike Chapman, who along with longtime songwriting partner Nicky Chinn, wrote two of its songs, it continues the more rock-based sound begun on the preceding TNT, but even more so. The album rose to the No. 33 position on the Billboard Country Albums chart, although there were no charting singles for the first time in Tucker's career.

gollark: It may have been me using it wrong, but runit doesn't seem to properly terminate processes created by a shellscript unless I make *another* script with `killall` in it.
gollark: Anyway, I figure you could probably capture *most* of systemd's nice bits - parallel execution of stuff, no shell scripts, pleasant unit files, sandboxing - without depending on a hundred horribly interlinked C binaries doing everything ever.
gollark: It would of course still contain TOML.
gollark: What do you want me to do instead, use Nim‽
gollark: It probably has linked lists in it.
