[Music] Favourite Country Song

[Whitechapel]

Not sure it counts but it’s great

 

[Icy Gull]

I read today that Bob Dylan rates this as the best song ever written.

I nearly posted that but went for Poco

 

[Randy McNob]

does big country count?

 

[zefarelly]

None.

although I do like this piss take. . .

 

[seagurl]

Sublime

 

[BrianB]

The outer limits of C&W ?.
A banjo led dub reggae version of a northern soul classic...

Good to see plenty of other Taylor Swift fans on here. Thought I might get a bit of a ribbing for it

The other singer I'm really enjoying at the moment is Morgan Wade, Wilder Days being a particular favourite on my playlist.

Great song, had her album on a lot after seeing her at C2C last year.

Interesting to see a few TS fans - I've never been overly keen on her tbh, but I've always quite liked this one...

Thanks for reminding me, had completely forgotten! Need to get tickets asap

Its C2C this weekend which means I'm sure to get FOMO having decided not to go this year.
Still I did get tickets this week for Morgan Wallen in December so here's one from his latest sessions.

Very good.

I only discovered Jelly Roll last year through Son of a Sinner, but he's done some great stuff including Need a Favor

Always good to see this thread back - the classic mix of some really good music suggestions and posters sharing the unsolicited information that they don't like country music.

Steve Earle has been posted a few times, as has Townes Van Zandt. I had never come across Steve's son, named for Townes, Justin Townes Earle. This song turned up a few months ago on a roots compilation I was listening to and I loved it. Sad to read that he had similar troubles as his dad and died early like his namesake. Seems to have left some wonderful music.



Any fans of Carrie Rodriguez? I saw her on one of, the sadly now very rare because the Channel's being wound down, BBC4 music documentaries. This one was a series about the history of various strains of South and Central American music. She's a great songwriter and country violinist. Has made a few albums with Chip Taylor and 'Lola' a fantastic album exploring her Mexican roots.



And speaking of Chip. He wrote this classic. (As well as 'Wild Thing') This is Melba Montgomery's 1977 more country sounding version of Juice Newton's huge hit.
