Be honest ... I have a new appreciation for it myself, never really had anything against it ... but after listening to Kevin Fowler and Tracy Byrd I have a new love for it.... so come on .. 'fess up y'all
I've always had a weak spot for Willie Nelson, and Randy Travis. Aside from those two, I don't listen to it much. Not to mean I don't hear it much, I live in Missouri. Country is by far the way of life around here.
It's not big in NY. As a matter of fact, I think I know of one country music station and I don't even think it's still in existance.
I'm not a fan. That being said, I went out with a guy years ago who liked a little country and I liked Randy Travis too. I like two songs by Garth Brooks but that's about as far as I go.
I hate country too, except Shania Twain, except it would be more pseudo-country, but the visuals are more in line with the sound . I sincerely hope any of you never heard Quebec country music, that stuff alone can make people hate music . English stuff is more bearable, but I'm not personnaly fond of it.
I'm afraid I have to go into the "thanks, but no" category for country music too. There are a very few songs I like, mostly older ones, but not much else.
I like all music, over 500 cd's and a pure mixture from old style country to new age music.
But for newer country i do like brooks and dunn. they are more of what i would call a rockabilly type.
My favorite song would have to bo Hank Williams Jr. Countryboy can survive.
