I really miss country artists that can tell a story. If you look at the older generations of country artists and their style of music, there was a good amount of story telling. It wasn't a bunch of unrelated verses, they were combined to tell one story. A few examples would be The Gambler, Young Love or even Cocaine Blues. I want a current country artist to tell a story with some passion in their voice. I want to hear at least one of the staple instruments of country music in that song. I want to believe that story when I hear it.
