i love country music, and how. given that my father exposed me to bands like brooks & dunn, alan jackson, and such, i think my favorite variety is the sort from the eighties and the nineties.
i've noticed that it's really common for people to say something like "oh, i like old country music, but i just don't like modern country music." okay, i'm not crazy about stuff like florida georgia line, considering it's music by the sort of people who actually can convince women to take their clothes off, but still. every time i hear someone say this, i want to roll my eyes- i get it, you only like old country music, as if that makes you special. join the club; i like david allan coe, bocephus, and merle haggard as well.
as influential as garth brooks is, i'm not a big fan of him. he's good, but most of his big hits are insipid in the extreme. i always associate his song rodeo with mario kart for some reason, but still.
