ok, i don't like country at all, but i'll try to help.

when you say new, do you mean, like new songs to you or new songs that just came out?

try gretchen wilson i think is her name. those songs are easy.

if its just songs new to you, try garth brooks, lonestar, or brooks and dunn.

i don't know song titles, but try out those artists and pick a song you like.

The only song even remotely country I like is by two country artists collaborating, Alison Krauss(sp?) and Brad Paisley - Whisky Lullaby, and that's only semi-country. It's a lovely song to play along to, and the intro is easy but after that I always found it sort of difficult, but that might have something to do with the fact that I'm crap.

Sorry Country music is no longer made. It went out of production several years ago, and was replaced by crappy top 40 style pop with country flavored overtones...

Sadly true (in the main-stream recording industry anyway). But there is still some decent indie and small-label stuff (Jodie Stecher, Carter and Grammer, etc). Old Hank Williams (senior of course) stuff on acoustic is relatively simple and always goes over well with people who like Country music. ("I Can't Help It If I'm Stll In Love With You"; "Your Cheatin' Heart"; "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry"; "Hey Good Lookin"; etc, etc).
Un-plugged is not the same as
never-was-plugged-in-to-begin-with.

yep...country has gone down the tubes. Since when am I supposed to believe that "so and so" is country when they looked like they walked out of a Vidal Sasson commercial. Give me a break...Kenny Chesney is not country with skin tight jeans and cut off shirt...with an orange fake tan. Now I can believe a guy like George Strait is country...but it compares nothing with the country my parents (my mom at least) listened too. George Jones, Loretta Lynn, Hank Williams (not Jr.), Bill Monroe, etc.

*steps down off soapbox*

Check out some of these songs...

Mud on the tires- Brad Paisley
Little Moments- Brad Paisley
He stopped loving her today- George Jones
Drive- Alan Jackson
Ocean front property- George Strait
Carrying your love with me- George Strait

George Strait... My wife bought his new compilation CD over 20 tracks and he didn't write or even co-write one of them. He's as manufactured as they come.

it doesnt suprise me...i guess i meant that he looks more "country" than the kenny chesneys of the world.

I'll give Alan Jackson credit though...he does write most of his stuff.

If you put a cowboy hat and pair of boots on a fella that plays a guitar, that doesn't necessarily mean he's playing country music.

Some of us in here remember when "real country music" was just that, and it came from the radio tuned in to the the program that was broadcast from the Ryman Auditorium on Saturday night, The Grand Ole Opry.

I believe the point some of the folks are trying to make here about country music being dead is because these so called country artists of today are playing rock and roll....not country.

Find some early recordings of the previous generation or two of country artists, compare them, and see for yourself.

Now one more thing, before you accuse someone of being ignorant, you might check out the difference between the possessive pronoun, your, and the conjunction, you're, meaning you are.

Long live country music. biggrin.gif
