I've seen Brad Paisley, Wynona, Terri Clark and, yes, Lonestar all at the county fair near here (had to navigate the mosh pit with Teen Daughter several times, lol.) My first book was about a laid back beach chick who was also a Country music fan, and my editor kept asking, "Are you sure about this???"

Another wonderful song is the duet with Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton, "When I Get Where I'm Goin'." I'm not a fan of Dolly's music, but that song, I love it. :)<BR/><BR/>HEY!

I was too cool for that--I was into pop/rock. But when I moved to Nashville (in part to be near the Christian music industry), I slowly became a fan. There's something about an a genre that makes certain assumptions: that people love their families, that everyone believes in God and most everyone attends church, that the "good guys" ultimately win. <BR/><BR/>I have had the opportunity to meet and even sing with several country artists, and I can attest that, with a few exceptions, they are the real deal. They are gracious folks who struggled to get where they are and appreciate every fan. Most of them have an abiding faith in God. (I've even met a few I would classify as "Spirit-filled believers"!)<BR/><BR/>And while I still haven't warmed up to the most twangy country voices (I am, after all, classically trained), and I still cringe at some of the most trite lyrics, country (along with Christian music, of course) is now my music of choice.Affording the Mousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08600760741379046272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498449.post-11105179141693812352008-09-10T09:47:00.000-04:002008-09-10T09:47:00.000-04:00Angie, I'm a huge country music fan.

This Brooks & Dunn song, <I>Believe</I> won at least one of the big country music awards two years ago (it came out in 2005). A year ago, it was the ringtone on my cell phone. That's how much I like it.<BR/><BR/>RobinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498449.post-89833260011277248772008-09-10T09:37:00.000-04:002008-09-10T09:37:00.000-04:00WOW - actually - wow.
