Favourite *Country* Songs
Skimming the thread titles, I've seen very little mention of the country music genre. Now, I don't listen to much country, but I was raised on it, and I hear a quite a bit of it just because I'm from Kentucky and in many places its the genre of choice. There are several country songs that I absolutely love, and a few artists I listen to with some degree of regularity. (Dixie Chicks, Rascal Flatts, and Faith Hill to name a few) I am NOT including Allison Krauss on this list, even though I've loved her for many many years...she's bluegrass, y'all, I don't care if she's on Country Music Television, it's bluegrass.
Anyway...I was interested in seeing if anyone else has an interest in country. Even if you can't stand the twang, many of them have great lyrics. Their music videos tend to be more enjoyable for me to watch because they really tell a story, not just flash racy images for 3 minutes. I guess I'm a fan of ballads; most of the country songs I like are slow, tender ballads. So anyway...my favourite country songs...please add if you have any. :-)
