 I like Blake Shelton for Some Beach, the charms of which I tried to explain to Mantenna and Snowflakegirl, only to have them smile, nod and back away slowly. As for dislikes, I'll tell you who I dislike: Lonestar. Could there possibly be a more insipid "country" song than Mr. Mom?! The ghost of Johnny Cash ought to come on stage and smash a guitar over their heads the next time they perform it.

| I like...George Strait, Tracey (sp) Byrd, Garth Brooks, Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson, JoDee Messina (Yes, "My Give a Damn's Busted is my new theme song), Gretchen Wilson, Big and Rich, Trace Adkins, Kenny Chesney. I am not a fan of Shania or LeAnn. But I guess it is all about taste. |

You're right about the "rollin' in dirt in a white T-shirt." (As a matter of fact, I'm listening to it right now. He needs to fire his songwriter over these lyrics, but you just gotta love that fiddle.) Quote:
I registered my new truck last week, and I tried to get the personalized plate SOMEBCH, but was told there was no way I was getting away with that one.  Quote:
And secondly, oh, you're a (finger quotes) "pirate"? Oh, okay, (finger quotes) "pirate." I don't know many "pirates" who charge me $8 for a cheeseburger at their chain restaurants. (And c'mon, Jimmy, yeah yeah, "Margaritaville." Okay, whatever. Restaurant named for the song, ha ha. If you really wanted a name for the restaurant, go with The Jimmy BUFFET--there's your name, right there. But I digress.) I think Kenny Chesney has the same attitude. I think, "Sorry, boys, I'm sure Grand Cayman is fun, but you're singing to a blue-collar crowd, and most of us have to actually work for a living, and we can't afford to take a private helicopter out to the Caymans and boat around on our personal pleasure cruisers." Oh, at the moment, I also really like Nobody Knows by Kevin Sharp and John Michael Montgomery's I Can Love You Like That and I Swear. When country artists (especially males) cover R&B, it really can work!

| Phat, I'm almost ashamed to say, I know most of the lyrics to the song in your sig.  You can't be from the south and not sing that song when you're drinking. I find Keith Urban very catchy -- lot of good driving songs. Generally, my favorite country singers are women -- love the Dixie Chicks, for example. I love a good a$$-kicking country song, and I love that so many country artists seem to have more real musical talent than studio-synthesized pop singers. I'm a huge fan of The Mavericks -- I think they broke up a couple of years ago, and they never fully belonged in the country category anyway; sort of a mix of Cuban and country. Sounds odd, but is awesome, and the lead singer had an incredible voice.

| Phat, I'm glad to see you mentioned Sugarland. I saw Alison Krauss this weekend. 5 stars out of 5. Great show. I like a mix of old and new country. George Jones "He Stopped Loving Her Today" is one of my all time favorites. Vince Gill is good. Trisha Yearwood, Shedaisy I could go on for quite awhile. Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline old school are great.
