You just posted my personal favorite Alabama song and the funny thing is thats one that broke their string of 21 or 22 #1 hits. It topped at #2.

I hesitate to post anything by Cash. I guess because, to me, he is Country music. I can't think of any particular one of his songs that I would pick over the rest. Still, I haven't seen this one in here and I feel like it has to be:


<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/IgI6nm8ANY8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Fock is this thread ever going to die,I never realized there were so many country bumpkins and rednecks on the planet.

LMAO I'll take a listen, (if I can find it lol). In the interim, here's some Reba...

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kZNvjmXM7eg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

You know that I don't like a lot of country music, but Reba has the best damn voice!

Look back about half a page genius.

No it isn't going to die. I have at least 1000 songs yet to post.

thread tools... ignore thread

Aint ever gonna die, son. Too much great music. Here's one from way back:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/j2klh2cTa_Q" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Why would you ever hesitate to post JC? Never hesitate. JC is the ****ing man!

ROFL

FTR, I'm only partial 'neck. I grew up in Kansas and live in Nebraska. It was inevitable that I would be subjected to this music. I'm not embarrassed to admit that I like a few country tunes.

Per Simply Reds rep request. Good job SR.

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/s-Xl17B-Z0A" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Oh snap! LMAO

You're such a bitch.

Why would you be embarrassed? Great music is everywhere. I feel sorry for people who shut out any type of music because they're too cool to give it a chance.

You've seen my posts of Alice Cooper and the like in the RMV thread.

I just don't understand a person limiting themselves based on a stupid genre.

I guess that's just me.

That's how you like me and why we're friends.

Just listen and give it a chance.

It's too tempting to post every single Cash song I can find, hard to settle on one.

So post every JC song you can find. Trust me this thread isn't dieing. Like I said I have 1000 more and that's being conservative.

The haters can kindly and lovingly suckle my taint. There's an ignore option for those who are tired of seeing it.

I didn't start this just to let it die.

Hell I posted a few myself and then Johnny focking know it all dj had to go and piss on toby keith.

I'm not in any way embarrassed to admit I like some country but in the big picture when it comes to country I'll take it in very small doses.

Well I love this one:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/k7K4jH7NqUw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

...and this one:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/7auzYgVosJA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

It amazes me that anything I say actually matters to you, especially since we've met and got along. I don't remember trashing your Toby Keith but if I did and I offended you then I'm sorry. I don't like Toby Keith other than a few songs. So ****ing what? You're a grown man and so am I and who gives a shit.

...and this one too:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/k9IfHDi-2EA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

If this is aimed at me fock you,I'm not too cool and i've given it plenty of chances and even admitted to liking some,but when I do you piss all over Toby Keith who like it or not has some damn good lyrics.

Bottom line,all music is subjective,I just prefer my music like my movies,a little bit deeper where i have to think about more than drinkin' a beer and drivin' in my truck with my dog Blue because my girl just told me to fock off.

I would listen, if my laptop wasn't such a POS! :mad:

I tried to look for the video, but the lag was so bad that when I scrolled up or down, it stalled out then bounced all over then damn place.

I miss my old laptop... this one is such a turd!!

...and of course:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/aUXkDrZ1z2k" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Btw Nzoner... Yes I work in radio and have for a long time. If you think I'm acting like Johnny ****ing know it all then read through the thread. 18 pages on the default setting and I'm pretty sure you're the first person to call me out for being a know it all.

I playingly messed with Lump. She knows where I'm coming from.

I apologize if having some insight into the format offends you. I don't know everything and never claimed to. I'm enjoying everyone elses contributions.

There are many examples in this thread of just that.

Off the top of my head though, Toby Kieth has one of the shittiest examples of the crappy songs you are referring to in Red Solo Cup.

Seriously. That shit is like the Country version of Friday. ****ing horrible.

I'm sorry for whenever I offended you Joe. Toby has a few songs I really like. She Never Cried In Front Of Me, Love Me If You Can, Should've Been A Cowboy.

Overall I'm not a fan but I respect that you are and apologize if I was an ass to you.

I'm going to call this Country. You can call it Gospel if you want. It's near to my heart:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JLFbUbmH7To" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Sorry to everyone for being pissy. Joe and I are friends from years ago and we had a disagreement. It happens.

Back to the topic at hand.

Country? It's Cash. It's a great song. He recorded this very, very close to his death:

As much as I love NINs original I love JC's even more.

post 116 "Toby can suck my taint" your words.

And please don't get me started on radio of any kind the only decent radio out there is satellite.Focking regular radio be it country,rock or whatever sucks,you guys are as bad as Hollywood,give the mindless masses the same old shit over and over again and they just keep buying it.

But please prove me wrong,have you ever played the great watermelon slim who drove the road for 30 years?

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/WeMRIu43qjg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I played that last Friday morning by request. :thumb:

Free For All Fridays... you request it and we'll play it if we've got it. Tons on fun.

absolutely agree

I hear ya,my little bro lives in flagstaff,az and they have a station that rarely plays commercials and focuses on deep cut B-side album rock,refreshing as the day is long.

Again it's all subjective but music like movies has its "popcorn" shit and then it has the deeper more independent artists that could give 2 shits about radio and/or theatre play.

We aren't going to see eye to eye here Joe so I suggest letting it go. I have no desire to fight with you.

Radio is a business like any other. Artists that turn off 90% of the listeners don't get played. Just like any other business strives to meet the greatest demand. Call modern radio worthless if you want, that's fine. It's no different than it ever was. Our job is to appeal to the biggest audience available to gain the most listeners available to attract the most advertising dollars available. I expect since you are in advertising you understand that.

Do I like it? No. I never said I did, but I know how to do my job and I'm good at it. I'm not going to apologize for that. My station happens to do things that are different from most others.... Free For All Fridays... the 3 o'clock throwback etc.

What I have to play at work and live with daily is a big part of the reason I started this thread. To give voice to country fans on CP who have more to share, including myself. I think it's going great so far.

You should listen to more of the songs posted in this thread then. By and large it's just what you're asking for.

NOW that i got that off my chest how does this set with everyone....

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fMVUILVM0Xw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Mkay? :shrug: He had an opinion about one of the very few country artists that you like and now you're pissed. I suppose I could understand that to a point, but damn! There's no need to get hostile and start criticizing him for what he does for a living. :facepalm:

You're better than this, Nzoner.

The Ambien Walrus made me post this:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-86dZWP92cw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Just so we're clear I like maybe 4 Keith songs,generally if I'm listening to country I'm listening to old school and sorry to you and beer me as i was criticizing the entire industry of public radio and unfortunately it's something that he is a part of.

I never wanted to make any of this about me or what I do for a living or radio at all. It was meant to be an oasis for people who have an appreciation for country music to share our love and songs and storys... but I'm going to say this...

You know what happens when a radio station trys to go beyond the popular fray? The majority of listeners leave. That means the ratings go down and that means the advertising goes away and that means you're dead.

I will not apologize for what I do whether anyone thinks what I play is good or not. My station outsells the other 17 in our chain and I'm not ashamed of that because we aren't playing a bunch of fringe artists.

I don't attack anyone else for the way they do their job or the way it's best to do thier job because it keeps them in business. So **** you to anyone that thinks they know how to keep a radio station viable in the current market. You don't like it? Piss off. There are other things available.

As soon as all the actually good artists become what the masses demand that's what we'll play. In the meantime get a clue about business and survival in a competitve market and good luck doing better with playing what you want to play.

Remember this?

That's me every time I listen to to the music my two daughters like


Keep on keepin on dude

This thread was fun for a while then it just became another CP bitchfest. I'm as much to blame as anyone.

I'm just sick and tired of people who don't understand my business telling me how to run my business or why my business sucks. You think you know better? Step on in. I give you about 1 hour before you realize you don't know shit.

See man there ya go again,I apologize and it's fock you to anyone...please dude I'm the only one busting your balls so just be a man and call me out personally.Don't think for a minute I don't "get" the whole masses and advertising thing why the hell do you think I opened my own advertising business 22 years ago...because i didn't have to cowtow to the masses and some corporate jack-off writing me a paycheck.

"oh I'm sorry small mom and pop business that's trying to survive,I can't take your ad because you can't afford us,because we reach 100,000 readers/listeners daily."

fock that!

Oh shit I apparently have made a huge mistake and IF SO PLEASE ACCEPT MY SINCERE APOLOGIES as I didn't realize it was your name on everyone's checks.

This place is like an Irish Pub...Friends at the beginning, fistfighting at the end, and friends again tomorrow

I ****ing love it

now back to regular programming and what nzoner classifies as a country classic :0

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/eVtHMDJcmxE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I don't know what you mean by there you go again and I've already spoken my mind. I'm not here to fight. If fighting is what it takes to "be a man" here then count me out. I've done enough stupid things in the past on CP.

This thread was suppossed to be fun for country fans. It's not anymore.

Saying goodbye. Be well.

Back on subject


<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/mvZ5E5_Uuik" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

great free drinks from the kansas pukes,make mine a double :)

Meth or no meth? :)

There's no need to apologize to me.

Public radio for the most part does suck. But you were straight up criticizing beer me just to get back at him personally for his "Toby can suck my taint" comment. Okay, I'm not going to lie... that made me ROFL

Listen, I'm not going to take sides on this. You're both grown men. Hash it out, apologize, do whatever.

FWIW, I tune in to his show occasionally and he is really great at what he does.

Okay. I didn't see this.

:spock: When did you become such an asshole? Seriously?

/sigh

****ing crazy shit here on CP. Notice that I spelled ****ing correctly? No "o" in place of the "u". That would be considered filter evasion, right?

Why can't you just type out "****"? You typed out "shit". What's wrong w/ the word ****?

**** **** ****ITY **** **** ****










****.

How about I just use your ****ing words...

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."

And with that,I'll bow out of this thread and let it back to its intended purposes,have a great ****ing day.

eric church .. good newer artist ...

Thanks! Have a great day! :D

Btw, those aren't my words. That's a quote from Dr. Seuss. ROFL

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j...YZIf3yKqf3YS9A

one of my favorites by Little Big Town

Josh turner is good. There needs to be more Josh Turner.

Easton Corbin is also good. It doesn't hurt that he sounds EXACTLY like George.

Guess that makes me a commie...LMAO

Wish there was a way to give triple-rep because I would for this post.

From the looks of my Ipod you might think I am musically-schizophrenic.

The first time I heard "I'm a little more Country " I thought it was Gentleman George

This is another decent new song. I don't normally like Jason Aldean, but I like this one.

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/4tZaIDo_ULk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Man I could have wriiten exactly the same thing. I like 2 Aldean songs... The Truth that you posted and this one...

Where is ol' Hal these days?

I would count the steps from here to heaven
every heartache I was given
tip my hat and walk through fire
to find sure love

I would chase old ghosts and watch them scatter
drop old dreams and watch them shatter
lose myself and all I own
to find sure love


<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/vLMYlnp84n0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Playing small shows and tours, recording on a small label. Had him in town 3 years ago along with Restless Heart. The show was at our junior high and Hal was out back smoking weed before coming on stage lol. He went to a local bar with some folks from here after the show. Super chilled, nice guy.
