I think ray Wiley Hubbard's album "growl" is amazing!

when the song was pitched to Toby Keith it was reported that he told CMT that it was "the stupidest song that I have ever heard in my life" but also "freakin' awesome."

I gave up on most country a long time ago because of crap like this song. The thing that reeeeeally gets my goat is that EVERY single person I work with likes it.


And the WORST part is, they all seem to think its exceptionally clever!!!! Aaaarrrrgghhh! Banality!

Sayeth the rednecks:
" huh huh huh....he's talkin' 'bout beer..."

So, you hipsters are so elitist, you have to bash a country song? Music like beer is totally subjective, if you don't like a style, leave it be. I don't listen to much of it personally, but that song is what it is, a fun party song.

Go wax your mustaches....

You've missed the point completely. The thread was never about bashing a song, it was a declaration about the state of country music in general.
You admittedly don't listen to much country, so why the need to come here and call out a conservation you care little about as elitism?

I didn't single you out for your opinion on the song, I singled you out for calling the people conversing in this thread "hipster elitests". I just didn't see the reason for name calling on a thread you admittedly have little interest in.

There's been a good sized faction of country music that has bashed everything that has came out of Nashville for the last 50+ years. Why are you guys acting like this concept is something new? Why are you associating Nashville country as the end-all be-all definition of country...proclaiming it to be dead?

I would never listen to Rascall Flatts and say "Holy S, the fall of country music". I would chalk it up as another Nashville produced idiocracy and throw my Waylon CD back in the deck.

Get real - and welcome to the struggle.
