Sweet home Alabama. Lynard Skynard (Sorry if I spelt it wrong)
Personally I’m a rock fan but I do love a bit of Country, I like Gavin Mcgraw as well. Its brilliant because in england no ones heard of him. lool. 90% of the music of his I’ve played to my mates they’ve liked it.
How Do I & Blue, Leann Rimes
Probably, Shaina Twain! I know that was quite a bit ago but I loved her music and it made we want to hear more from fantastic artists!
all of taylor swift and rascal flatts.
None. I was raised on country music.
COUNTRY music, not that rock/pop garbage they’re trying to pass off as “country” today.
Well I was always a Country Fan from birth. My father was a fan!!!
This may sound strange but in 1977 (when I was just 10 years old) a little movie came out called SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT and I heard the song EAST BOUND AND DOWN by Jerry Reed. That song played in my head for ages. Then CONVOY came out in 1987 and I was in love…with both the music and a certain blue eyed singer/actor.
I always listened to country music, my parents always had it on. But when I was a teen I listened to rock, so the song that brought me BACK to country music was “move it on over”. My grandpa got a free cd in the mail (legendary country singer: hank williams) from time-life, and was going to throw it away, I said I’d take it, and that began my obsession with classic country music.
“The One” by Gary Allen, and I was raised on country music and can’t stand it (usually) but this song is very special to me because my boyfriend sings it to me all the time. Also “Amazed” by Lonestar and “The Keeper of the Stars”. I like all kinds of music, tho
Hard to pin it down to 1 song but since this would have to be one from childhood I’ll say “Luther’s Boogie” by Johnny Cash. Far from his best work I know but as a 6/7/8 year old kid that shuffle was really catchy. (My dad had an 8 track of Johnny’s stuff on Sun that he played a lot.)
RJ: I still have the soundtrack album with “East Bound and Down”. It also features Burt Reynolds’ country song “Let’s Do Something Cheap and Superficial”, LOL.
Watcha Gonna Do With A Cowboy
I grew up listening to it. The first artists I remember were Hank Sr, Jimmie Rodgers, and Hank Snow.
Sugarland’s live concert @ the Mississippi Valley Fair in Davenport Iowa…They had 6 different acts among was: Darryl Worley, Ronnie Milsap, and Alan Jackson all for $40 w/a fun card; it was all worth it…Now i’m listening to Yahoo’s radio station w/country music picked out, the concert’s were all worth watching
I grew up in a city where country is about as cool as the calculus club, and my parents are rock ‘n’ roll promoters, so I grew up dismissing the genre in its entirety. Then one day I was flipping through the stations while cleaning my room (because they’ve done scientific studies, and officially concluded that cleaning is the single most boring activity imaginable, necessitating a musical accompaniment) and the country station was the only one besides the rap station without commercials. I hated (and still despise) rap, so I settled on country, while emitting a sigh of irritation that filled half the room.
As luck would have it, George Strait came on. It was this beautiful, haunting song that spoke of the wistfulness that always seems to consume me, giving it a tangible manifestation. I was so enamored with the song I went to the local record store (this was the days before the internet) and scouted around until I figured out what it was. I bought the album that contained it, “Strait From the Heart,” and within six months, country was all I listened to. My parents still cannot figure out what happened.
That song remains my favorite to this day… “Amarillo By Morning,” of course.
The next two were Toby Keith’s “Should’ve Been A Cowboy” and Lonestar’s “Everything’s Changed.”
I kind of liked certain country songs , But my son would listen to Rascal Flatts and Kenny Cheseny all the time I guess It would be Broken Road( Rascal Flatts). In fact he was married last Sept. and we (him and I) danced to My Wish.
My first CD I ever brought was of Hank Williams Jr. I believe the title of the album was “Born to Boogie”. That was way back when I was about 7 years old I think.
These days I am more of a fan of his son, Hank III and father Hank Sr, and of course George Jones, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings and the like. I still love some of Hank Jr’s songs though (i.e. “Heaven Can’t be Found”)
I grew up listening to my father’s Jimmie Rodgers,78s
