Kenny's making the bucks and he's got the country girls wrapped around his little digit and I can't knock that. I wished I sucked that bad..........
When the sun goes down
We'll be groovin
When the sun goes down
We'll be doing alright
When the sun sinks down over the water
Every thing is hotter when the sun goes down
It is amazing how he started in the 1990s and still makes the charts.
They never aged him out yet like they did to basically every other 1990s country singer.
As for his music, I like some of his songs. He brings an energy to his music that elevates it beyond the typical Nashville schlock. But it is a sad indictment on Nashville country music that he has been one of the headliners of the last 20 years. [Reply]

Boy that's no shit. I remember one day I while I was stuck in traffic I started scanning the radio to see if any new stations had popped up worth adding to my presets. Heard a country song that I liked on a station I was unfamiliar with, so I added it. That was probably a couple of years ago, and to this day I've never heard anything else that wasn't awful. Like incomprehensively awful. I can't even imagine how some of that shit is considered country.
I would remove the station from the presets, but since I have 27 presets and there are only five FM stations up here that I can stand (including one news station), what's the point? Of the other four stations, three pretty much seem to play the same 20 songs on a loop, but at least they're mostly songs that I like, and the last one has a deeper selection, but about half the songs are from the 90s grunge era, and I hate grunge like I hate Denver.
I simply don't drive enough to justify the expense of XM or Sirius, so I either just deal with it or listen to my own playlists. IMO, radios that link to smart phones are the best thing to happen to cars since air conditioning. [Reply]

I love the oldies like Cash, Haggard, Jennings, Nelson, Williams Sr etc etc
But yeah, this new breed can fuck straight off... and that definitely includes Cheesney and his beach bum schtick
I love EVERYTHING about beach life/culture, but none of it has anything to do with country music IMO... new country sucks dognuts, they're all far more interested in being accepted by Hollywood than they are representing country music fans [Reply]
