Fellow bloggers and music lovers of all ages, shapes and sizes, let it not be said that I am a hoity-toity Country Music purist; or any kind of purist for that matter, but please! What's with all these songs with rap in the middle and beats and rhythm's that make you want to pop a cap in someone's arse? You know that I like music...all kinds, and I like musicians...all kinds, but there should be a line.
Music is universal and we are the ones responsible for tagging and classifying it. Music makes lover's spoon, and wanna be singers croon, and poets want for more words. Tis a long segway to a short point and sorry for beating around the philosophical bush too long. lol
This is my point, I turned on CMT the other day to see a video that was non distinguishable from that of a rap video. The name of the song was Honky Tonk Ba Donk-a-donk. Trace, Trace, Trace Atkins why did you go and do that for? Premise of the song/video..you can guess. A lot of booty slappin', gyrating, plain out and out video vixening. And get this...Trace Atkins actually rapped in the middle of the song. No, bubba can't and shouldn't rap.
Don't get me wrong I like Trace Atkins, and I like Tim McGraw, but boys leave the rappin' to the likes of Nelly and Snoop Dog. Don't mix genre's ya just look stupid, and you take Country Music along with you. That's the way I see it anyway.
BTW--Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off, by Joe Nichols is hilarious. Without a doubt the most handsome man in Country Music.
And still more Dumb Blonde Jokes coming at ya!
What did the blonde say when she looked into a box of Cheerios?
Oh look! Doughnut seeds! Blahahahhahahah!

From the title, I was sooo looking forward to a tale of debauchery and Tequila slammers.
No debauchery here. ;) Unless, you want to count my last birthday, my friend took me out so we could celebrate our birthday's together. A few Jose' Cuervos, a few Lemon Drops, one Long Island Iced Tea, and a few Fuzzy Navels later and voila'!...clothes still on. I didn't even make a spectacle out of myself, aside from the fact that I danced all night long even when there was no music. tehe All was quite sane except for the fact that a woman hit on me. Wha?! I appreciated the gesture but I didn't/don't swing that way. ;P So you see, that's about as debaucherous as I get. :)
One good turn deserves another...I told you mine, now you tell me yours. **wink** **wink**
Oh the country music I like, I really like Dolly Parton. Her music is so heartfelt. I like Hank Williams and Patsy Cline too. Not really big into the new country because it's like a commercial, like both rap and rock music have become. Plus I even heard one anti-gun country song a year or two ago. WTF?
Was she cute? heehee!
Sorry, but my tales of debauchery would need a blog of their own and I'm not about to start writing one anytime soon ;)
All in the past, you understand: when I was young, daft and on a mission.
I used to love country a long time ago, back when Merle was the man. Then I loved it again when Clint Black was fresh and Garth was humble. I even like Trace Adkins until I saw him dry-humping on stage. I heard rap in a country song when I let it linger--I was curious where the music had gone in my absence. Then I heard the country-bumpkin rap. I flushed red and turned the channel. Totally ridiculous. And you know that somewhere some farmers kid is plowing a field and tapping his foot to this garbage.
ZS--I like Pasty Cline too, she's one of my all time fav's. And Dolly, well need I say more they named a cloned sheep after her...pure talent. You heard an anti-gun country song? Say it ain't so, how very un-American. lol ;)
McFox--Was she cute? Yes, she was and I can say that because I am so secure in my femininity. ;p No tell of tales of debauchery eh? Well, maybe one day you'll feel lead to spill it. I want an autographed copy. ;P And did you accomplish your mission my good man? ;)
Scott--Country music has gone somewhere that's for sure. Nice choice of words I must say. Garth was going along fabulously until his musical personality split into Chris Gaines. But, you can't deny talent and he was talented even as his alter ego.
Country Bumpkin rap? For shame! That's one of the reasons I started writing lyrics. I felt as though I could write bull shoo shoo as good as the next; if not, better. ;)
Have a wonderful day my blogging friends. :)
Btw--Zombie and Scott do you guys mind if I link your blogs to mine? (I've already asked McFox) I just thought I would ask first. Thanks. :)
By all means do. One of these days, I have to add links. I'm just too lazy.
So...that said, when I finally get around to doing it, mind if I link yours then?
I would be honored ZS :)
Funny you should ask, I just linked you without asking. I hope you don't mind.
