every time Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton make me think yeah actually I like country, invariably I wind up somewhere having to listen to the stuff and man, it makes me want to break F150 windows, torch flags, and move to Nairobi or some other place where I'd never need to hear it again.
@chimerror *reads down to "Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton" and breathes an audible sigh of relief*
Gotta say it's real weird coming out of a childhood where Dolly was kind of a joke because of her huge whammers, into an adulthood where she's upheld as this saint, and somewhere in there actually discovering I sincerely like her music.
@chimerror heh, and my introduction to "Coat of Many Colors" was the time I told a friend I'd gotten the best country song ever and they suggested "Coat." (It's a great song, but the best is still "On the Road Again".)
@Leucrotta yeah, I feel like an African would just not vibe with modern country at all
@chimerror "one of the top requested songs of all time" yeah, well that's because The Gambler is one of the better songs written
