Lee Thomas Miller Celebrates ‘You’re Gonna Miss This’ with BMI

Friends, colleagues and family of BMI songwriter Lee Thomas Miller gathered in the BMI lobby on Music Row Wednesday, June 18 to toast the respected Nashville hit-maker and the success of his latest chart-topper, “You’re Gonna Miss This.” Recorded by Trace Adkins and co-written by Ashley Gorley, the tune’s proverbial theme emphasizing the warm inevitability of nostalgia resonated with a broad spectrum of listeners.

In addition to the traditional no. 1 accolades and awards, Miller received a surprise presentation prepared by his wife, Jana: A video montage featuring various photos of the Millers’ four children played, as “You’re Gonna Miss This” served as the fitting soundtrack.

The Miller family enjoys the unique video montage of photos.
