C&W Music

There are a lot of reasons why I like listening to C&W.

• Lyrics often give thanks to God.
• Lyrics often support our troops and our country.
• Lyrics often champion doing what’s right over what you want.
• Lyrics express all types of love in a positive way.
• I can actually hear and understand the lyrics.
• I can two-step and polka to it

So why do people talk down on C&W music? If they listen to it, they apologize (i.e. “I don’t usually care for C&W, but I thought this song about patriotism was good…”). They don’t do that for, say, rap music (“I don’t usually listen to rap music, but I thought this song about shooting cops was well done.”)

Ok, so the music isn’t the most challenging, but a lot of the old twangy stuff is long gone (even though as I get older, I appreciate the old twangy stuff more). The new C&W is almost rock.

I’m going to start a C&W Support Club. “Hi, my name is Michael, and I listen to Country Music. My favorite artist is George Strait.” Feel free to sign up below.
