What country music are you listening to?

OldVart · Mar 26, 2015

Old country is my fav., but some of the new stuff isn't too bad. Most of the new country is just pop rock played on the back pickup of a Telecaster guitar.

I like both kinds of music. Country and Western...

doogievlg · Mar 26, 2015

What about a little Ricky Skaggs or Osborne brothers?

Disclaimer: "Country" isn't my specialty.
My wife had Reba on something last night. No disrespect, she seems to have a unique voice, but the music was too typical of what passes for country now. Where is Hee Haw when you need it? Eight More Miles To Louisville.
Just not me. I liked her in the movie.

Dwight grew up a few miles away from where I lived in kentucky. It's a little holler about twenty miles from Loretta Lynn's cabin in butcher hollow.

I've never really been one for country, especially the new stuff of the last 20 years or so. But I kinda like this one:

Rani,
You poor child to have not grown up with Hee Haw.
It's still eight more miles to Louisville.

He's a sub genre of country you may have missed.
Oh what is sold.
And oh what is really good.
What a chasm exists between the two.

Country music, uniquely American but not my fav. Was working in Eastern Wa this week, restaurant was playing a song that was "Itty Bitty" this and that, house etc. Kinda catchy, have no idea who sings it.

Just yesterday I was thinkin about posting a link for "you're gonna miss this". That's a great song for sure and if we'd aply that song to our lives and enjoy the time we have NOW, we'd get more out of life.

Old country music is okay, i don't like the new stuff at all.
It all went downhill with line dancing and that ''Achey Breaky Heart'' song.
Ugggh!
That was terrible..........
For the record, i don't care for the new rock or techno stuff either, and don't get me started on rap!
BTW, Country music is VERY popular in Canada!
