It's good to listen to when you're driving long-distance and there's nothing sexier than the image of a tall, handsome cowboy in boots and a hat!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10136726313225546276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999125118927001112.post-82907550545372505982011-11-18T08:08:58.028-08:002011-11-18T08:08:58.028-08:00Country is getting to be a little edgier, but I li...Country is getting to be a little edgier, but I like that. There's a line in an Erich Church song that says, "I like my country rockin', How 'bout you?"<br /><br />And, yep, there's definitely a story in every song.Debra St. Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07154130275058459169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999125118927001112.post-46342766623573005772011-11-17T18:36:51.106-08:002011-11-17T18:36:51.106-08:00I love country music and there are always country ...I love country music and there are always country songs that remind me of my hero/heroine/story. I think what I like best about them is that so many of those songs are stories set to music. While I'll admit, some of them are depressing, a lot of them are about love and they're like 2.5 minute love stories.Jennifer Wilckhttp://www.jenniferwilck.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999125118927001112.post-54842310481366834042011-11-17T16:06:16.050-08:002011-11-17T16:06:16.050-08:00I like John Denver and Willie Rogers.

One of my daughters always used to say all 'country songs' had the words Tennessee or 'my mother' in them,and had what she called 'zingy guitars'. LOL. Need I add that she hates country music!Paula Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040623635956769807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999125118927001112.post-45895730381639379442011-11-17T16:00:28.613-08:002011-11-17T16:00:28.613-08:00I used to hate country music.

Country is more soft rock now, I think, especially when I watch CMT and the guys have long hair and the women are dressed in short shorts and boots.Ana Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12325215832587691886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999125118927001112.post-47692273362079896992011-11-17T11:38:41.900-08:002011-11-17T11:38:41.900-08:00I love all your 'links' with country music...I love all your 'links' with country music, Debra, and can see why it's so special to you.<br />Being of a different generation, not to mention a different country, my main musical memories come from the late 50's and the birth of rock and roll! I only have to hear some of the early Elvis songs, and I'm transported back to my teens!Paula Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040623635956769807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999125118927001112.post-64088133593179320152011-11-17T11:23:16.743-08:002011-11-17T11:23:16.743-08:00Jenn, We sound very similar!

As I got older--pop and rock stopped resonating with me so much and country music really seemed to strike chords with me. <br /><br />I still love the 80's music--but from about 98 on I've been pretty much country all the way. <br /><br />Great post, JennJennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07559573562599754752noreply@blogger.com
