Wierd as a lot of you may call it, im an avid country fan. That is, i love country music. Im no redneck, nor am i from the south or want to be (no hockey down there) but i do love the music. A lot of people would scoff at me when i told them that, in fact some of them would proceed to tell me they hate country music. Well have you heard that saying "hate's a strong word"? Well its true.
For all those country haters out there, you ever heard of Taylor Swift? Oh yeah, bet you never thought of that one, and as this may come as a shock to some of you, shes a country artist through and through. What about Rascall Flatts? Lady Antebellum? Brad paisley? All very popular, all very country.
So to all those country haters out there i just wanted to say, you cant hate a whole genre then tell me you love when of its premier artists, contradiction much? Hey i got no problem with you not liking it, im not going to take offence or what not, but i find it hilarious you tell me you love taylor swift but all country music can go down the can. Those kind of walking contradictions just grind my gears.
I'm really not a fan of country. I like basically all kinds of music except country and classical. To me, all country sounds basically the same, and all the songs seem to talk about love, or Jesus. I don't know, that may be kind of a stereotypical outlook on the genre, but that's my opinion.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic blog and I say this because I am obsessed with country music. Some may choose to blast rap or hip hop music in the car but I chose to blast country. My iPod contains mainly country and I have over two thousand songs. So if your ever looking for some country music you know who to call!
ReplyDeletei think who ever scolds at you should get punched you shold have ur own opinions]
ReplyDeleteCountry is actually a pretty cool genre of music. I have to credit Ms. Floehcker with starting me on the country bandwagon. She loves country music and every afternoon after school while I was sitting at my desk planning lessons or correcting essays, I would hear her blasting the tunes across the hallway, and I got hooked. OK, so maybe it's not my favorite genre of music, but I definitely have an appreciation for its simple, straightforward lyrics and hummable tunes.
