As I mentioned in a recent post, I've been perusing the Billboard charts. Since I don't have a subscription, I can only see a limited chart for any genre, but I did go all the way through what I could of the Hot County Songs chart. I found three out of twenty-five that were pretty good and another two I liked, but I've already posted about them. This song wins by default.
I just can't seem to find new music that gets to me very often...not in a good way. Particularly with country music I'm pretty picky. Well, maybe picky isn't the right word. So much of modern country sounds the same. I was performing with a contemporary country band recently, and I honestly had to ask which songs were which so often on a couple of them that I finally got tired of asking and made charts to help me get the song started. The content seems to all be the same, the lyrics are empty and un-clever, the guitar riffs all sound the same, and I just can't get into it. This one is a little better than some.
