[edit] The song
"Strong Enough" is a short acoustic song. In live performances Crow often plays the accordion to it, although this instrument was not featured on the original recording.
Travis Tritt wrote and released an answer song called "Strong Enough to Be Your Man" in 2002.[1]
Canadian Idol alum Tara Oram covered the track on her second studio album, Revival, in 2011.
[edit] The video
A simple black-and-white video was directed by Martin Bell. It features Crow in a largely empty room alternatively singing the song into a microphone and pacing anxiously through the room.
