ok..so i went to boston for the weekend, and i got a little tired of my cds, so i started pushing "Scan" on the radio to see what happened.

I came across this country radio station...and i heard some reallly good songs. notably, "you can't take the honky tonk out of the girl" and "jose ceurvo"...(ty you would love that one..it's aobut this guy who has 13 shots of jose ceurvo)

so i'm not really sure how this happened...but now i'm downloading all these country songs on purpose.

"and after one round of jose cuervo i caught my boot tapping along with the beat.
and after two rounds of jose cuervo. that band was sounding pretty darn good to me.

and then some stranger asked me to dance and i revealed to her my two left feet. now don't get me wrong but tonite's about me and my drink.

but after two rounds of jose cuervo i let her lead out on the floor.
and after four rounds of jose cuervo i was showin off moves never seen before.

esprit15d esprit15dOG 2003 ·

I can't believe no one's mentioned Reba! The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia, Does He Love You, I'm A Survivor, Is There Life Out There.

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

i don't really listen to country, but i do LOVE "Don't take the girl" by Tim McGraw...and The Dance by Garth Brooks is good too

esprit15d esprit15dOG 2003 ·

Let's just say I have no idea how I started listening to country music (it probably was a combination of the Chix and LeAnn Rimes, but neway) I remember being little and hearing "Don't Take the Girl" on that show Rescue 911. And that was one of the first country songs I ever heard, or at least remember.

But both of those songs are really good. Give you goosebumps.

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003 ·

ooops its Joe Nichols, not Michals

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

someone gave me a copy of wynonna's cd with the song "Flies On The Butter (You Can't Go Home Again)" this song makes a older sister I know cry everytime she hears it because it reminds her of her childhood. so sweet.

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003 ·

i just saw a brand new video from Brad Paisly, about his wife, the song was sooooo sweet! Its called "little moments". He married the chica from Father of the Bride. They're adorable together.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

oh i love this girl!! she was in 10th kingdom with all the fairy tales. soo good. and i love that movie. simply adorable.

sugabluejennnie sugabluejennnieOG 2002 ·

OO i loved 10th Kingdom She was a fool not to like the "wolf" when she first met him he was a hottie.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

i used to be in love with wolf. and then he was on gilmore girls as lorelai's fiance and i was still in love and wanted him to be mine. such a hottie!! not anymore though cuz then he was all a smart english professor.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

yeah this is ALLLLL crap

i like "getcha some" though...and "where the green grass grows"...and "a little less talk"...and "mercury blues"..."right on the money"...ok, i have more too..

COUNTRY SUCKS THOUGH...except the songs that secretly want to be punk

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003 ·

How about Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffetts new song?
*Its 5 O"clock Somehwere*?
Its the sequel to *Margaritaville* !!!

malibu malibuOG 2001 funny ·

hahaha. my mom loves this song!! she loves all country in fact and always has it on in the car (whoever drives picks the station and she likes to drive) this leads to me randomly bursting into songs about beeing in jail, my mom getting outta jail, drinking, losing my car or my guy. things of this nature

esprit15d esprit15dOG 2003 ·

I could pay off my tab, hop in a cab, and be back to work before 2
But at times like this, I can't help but wonder..."What would Jimmy Buffett do?"

Funny you should ask that Alan, I'd say,
"Pour me something tall and strong..."

good stuff

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003 ·

yeeeeeeeee haw!
love the hat men.

esprit15d esprit15dOG 2003 ·

If you can stomach Where the Green Grass Grows you might as well go all the way. LOL

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

you think so?? i really like that song.

esprit15d esprit15dOG 2003 ·

I think its catchy, but its too country for the casual fan:

"Watch my corn pop up in rows
Everynight be tucked in close to you
Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed
Point our rocking chairs towards the west"

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003 ·

i love that song... its SO cute...

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

it's one of mom's fave country songs

dgiaimoOG 2003 ·

I like country music. In fact, I just got Alabama's number one hits CD and The Essential Johnny Cash CD.
Johnny Cash was the greatest, (not to mention coolest), country singer ever. I especially love the songs "I Walk the Line", "Ring of Fire", and "A Boy Named Sue".

dgiaimoOG 2003 ·

I can't believe I didn't mention Garth Brooks. I've got his Double Live CD set and I don't think there's a single song on there that I don't like.

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003 ·

well, I like his shirts....

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003 ·

i LOVE country music... Brad Paisly, Kenny Chesney, Toby Keith, George Straight, Kenny Rodgers, Dixie Chicks, Tim McGraw....my list goes on and on... when i used to pioneer, me and summer would listen to y107 (which used to be the bestest country station but is now a spainsh channel) for like 8 straight hours every day... i'm more into the really old love type songs... country is the best ever...

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

...that was before my love developed. i now share their love! don't forget martina mcbride, brooks and dunn, mark wills, patty loveless, willie nelson, eric heatherly, clint black...
