What I like best about country are some of the song titles that they come up with. Just found this list which I´d like to share:-

- I flushed you from the toilets of my heart
- Did I shave my legs for this?
- My wife ran off with my best friend and I sure do miss him
- You´re the reason your kids are so ugly
- How can I miss you if you won´t go away?
- Get your tongue out of my mouth because I´m kissing you goodbye
- Here´s a quarter - call someone who cares
- If the phone don´t ring, baby, you´ll know it´s me
- May the bird of paradise fly up your nose
- I´m not married but my wife is
- I changed her oil, she changed my heart
- I don´t know whether to kill myself or go bowling
- If you don´t leave me alone, I´ll go and find someone who will
- She got the ring and I got the finger

Thanks, Vanilla!
I like the song titles , but I´m not at all sure that I´d like the songs themselves!

Far as I'm concerned, Country music - as in: Country & Western - ceased to exist sometime in the '70's. Since then, it's become just Pop with a twayng. Cracks me up when someone from Dallas, Memphis, Atlanta or even Nashville refer to themselves as 'country'. Big D's about as 'country' as Cleveland or Pittsburgh.
Or how someone from Kentucky or West Virgina is considered 'southern', which makes no sense any way you look at it.
Thanks to my nightlife schedule, I get to listen to a fair amount of what they call Country music today, I like some of it, but on the rare occasions I listen to it at home, I put on some classic gunfighter ballads, as done by Mr. Cash or Mr. Robbins.
I suppose the modern version of the gunfighter ballad would be Gangsta Rap.

I like Country...ok let me put it this way country doesn't have to be this....



it can be this....

and I find that people don't seem to want what country could be...they want what it already is...and that makes me wonder... people like music because they can relate to the song/artist... there are a lot of people that relate to Toby Keith for example...why I don't get it...maybe it's because I don't live in the hills somewhere and only contemplate...day to day customary bull that goes along with being a hillbilly... but hey some people do.. and that's ok because you know what it take all kinds to make this world go round... I love country for the few hidden gems there are....

I like country because it seems like it tells a story. Some songs don't seem easy to relate to but I don't feel that way about country. Songs like What if Your World Changed Tomorrow by Ginnette Ward really speak to me in ways a lot of rap doesn't speak to me.

Because it is so touching and heart warming. I listen to a song like "What if Your World Changed Tomorrow" by Ginnette Ward or something by Taylor Swift and it just reminds me of what's important in life.

SMH @ that. She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy is a good song. Plus that Futurebirds song isn't Country.
