Yeah, the last song is in spanish. I downloaded his new album Sunday.

I cant understand how and why some groups/duos/singers can just walk away from it all- Alabama, Garth Brooks and now Brooks and Dunn.

 

dude im 18 and cant even stand that crap. goodbye country radio, hello ipod. turn off the pop country, blast some ragweed and boland and im pretty happy.

 

Can't believe it... I listen to both kinds of music, country and western.

 

I forgot what song it was but Brooks and Dunn has a song where a verse is in straigh spanish as well. I've been gettin into Jason Moore here lately. Every song thats been released by him I like. Small Town USA is great song.

 

I heard that a couple of years ago they split up, but Reba McIntyre(sp?) got them to sit down and smoothed everything over. Guess it was only a matter of time since then. I agree with what alot of you are saying, alot of todays country is just pop music with generated songs simply for the $.

 

That really sucks! I really liked their music!

 

If they actually wrote their songs, it's too bad. If they were just another pretty voice singing someone else's work, so what. My biggest problem with country music is that hardly anybody popular writes their own music.

 

I'm pretty sure they wrote most their music?

 

George Strait doesn't write his own songs but I'd still consider him one of the best country singers around.

 

They wrote almost all of their own songs, and the ones the didn't they co-wrote

 

I downloaded the Justin Moore CD yesterday. This guy is actually pretty damn good. A glimmer of hope for new age country.

 

Ya he is! He is my first selection on the ipod everytime i get in the truck. Smalltown USA is great song. I've been listenin to Bucky Covington too.

 

Its a really good cd. I got to see him in concert a few months back when he opened for the Eli Young Band (also really good). I won tickets to the concert and Justin Moore wasnt originally scheduled to be there but he filled in for another singer that couldnt perform.

He spent the rest of the night walking thru the crowd drinking beer and posing for pictures with people.

 

It's just that most of it isn't coming out of Nashville. Search the numerous threads posted around here on Texas Music and give those artist a try -- you won't be disappointed and you will be left wondering how many of these guys aren't household names......

As far as Brooks and Dunn are concerned, most of their music (while profitable) was pretty forgettable, although I will say I absolutely love the old Ranchero that appears in their "Hillbilly Deluxe" video......

 

I really like the Toyota in that video. Theres a cool 4x4 boat in Jason Aldean's Hick Town video too.
