Third Rate Romance is a song written by American country music artist Sammy Kershaw. It was released in September 1993 as the lead single from his album Haunted Heart. The song reached number 3 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in December 1993.
The song is about a man who is trying to woo a woman who is not interested in him. He compares himself to various famous romantics such as Romeo and Casanova but she is not impressed. In the end he resigns himself to the fact that he will never be anything more than third rate.
The song was inspired by Kershaw’s own experiences trying to win over a woman who was not interested in him. He has said that he could relate to the character in the song because he had been in the same situation himself.
Kershaw’s version of the song was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance at the 37th Annual Grammy Awards.
