Country Music?

[Savage]

Does anybody here like country music? I do, but I also like metal but I cant stand rap. Country is the best.

[Jon]

nope... cant say i do... too mellow... i cant really see my self like... getting pumped up off of country ahaha lol... but rap is really mis understood... because some of the rappers are morons...

Not a country fan but i do like the older stuff, atleast some of it. I listen to these fellas...

Willie Nelson
Johny Cash
Waylon Jennings


A few other old schoolers scattered throughout but i personally don't consider those guys pure country, some may argue but then i may just be having a hard time admitting i like country(old school) somewhat. I find the newer stuff to "pop" for my taste but thats just me. But after managing a record store for awhile i have to admit i can listen to about everything. I like some of every musical genre from rap, rock, blues, jazz, old country, heavy metal, etc. As you can see my taste vary but the biggest judge in what i like is the beat or the music itself, if the music isnt good i could care less what the words are, they both have to flow together.

I'm with LuFeng... I listen to everything, from Eminem to Beethoven to King Crimson, but country music never really did it for me (especially new country, although Johhny Cash, Gordon Lightfoot and some of the older country artists had something).

But, I'm from the shool of thought that, if the lyrics aren't there, the music won't be there either, that is, without the lyric there is no music (good music, that is, sure, you can put some cool chords and a decent melody over trite lyrics, but the song won't have much resonance).

Really, anybody whose lasted in the music business and has written great music has had good lyrics - its how you separate the men from the boys, so to say.

I love Johnny Cash he is amazing I mean if you want me to quote him...

"I've been every where man!"

"Jailer oh jailer, jailer help me please, all around my cell I hear the patter of Deilyas feet"

Sorry for bad spelling but Johnny Cash is my favorite (country wise)

My favorite of Johnny's is Ring of Fire, I Walk the Line, Hurt, A Satisfied Mind, and On the Road Again.
