      add keith urban, Taylor swift & many others to that list. Not saying I'd want them to pass. just sick of the so called country music nowadays. At least in 70's during the country pop phase then it still had a country beat too it.

You can smell whiskey in the air. But as far as living ing my moms basement. I live in my own paid off home. Have been married 16 yrs. Have 3 teenage boys. Work my ass off daily. And when I do get the time to get on youtube I like my real country music. In this case I commented. So ride along little doggie.
