      I wouldn't go that far. I don't hate George Strait. Unlike some around here, I also don't hate the Eagles (though they're hardly pure country). And Brad Paisley can be clever with his pop culture/self-deprecating songwriting.

        I'm sure I'm being overly harsh. Country has good bones. The commercial crossover crap that has dominated the industry for 30 years is unlistenable pop pablum, and the harder stuff is entangled with socio-politics that needs an acid bath.

        But there has to be some that isn't sh-t. The flipside of Sturgeon: the 10%.

            You are being too harsh, but I'm overly harsh on a lot of artsy-fartsy 70s dreck, and not harsh enough on a lot of 80s "fretwanking & spandex" schlock. So, we're even.

            Crossover crap like Taylor Swift and "bro-country" acts like Florida-Georgia Line, Blake Shelton, Luke Bryan, etc. They can go to hell.

            I have a deep, visceral hatred of all things Oasis. I can remember in middle school when every guy with peach fuzz and an acoustic would hack away at "Wonderwall" whenever girls requested it. Pretty sure that's where it started.

              She's adorable with that cute little rat face, tho.

              Not sure this is real country or hipster country nostalgia, but in limited quantities it's good.

                Jon Sudano does the only acceptable version of this here.

                  More country than most so-called "country" that's out there today.

                    Ryan Adams does an excellent version as well.

                      Every single cover video is the same dammed thing. I don't get the attraction people have to seeing that.

                        It hasn't said anything at all about momma, or trains, or trucks, or prison... or gettin' drunk. Not a country song.

                          I don't think Hank done it this way.


                          In case there's confusion out there in the world today, Here's a country song for a reference.


                          Edit: I also meant to say: This is pretty good, thanks!

                            I'd say they maybe Smash mouth fans but I don't think Smash mouth has 700k fans.

                              It's mildly amusing in that it exposes how so many popular rock songs are based around the same set of major chords, just structured a bit differently. Beyond that, I agree.
