Lately, i always listen to country songs. I used to listen to pop songs, but i found it is nice to listen to country songs once in a while.
I started to know country music only after i watched American Idol 2005, which was won by Carrie Underwood. Well, back then, i didnt realize there is a music genre known as country music. And i wasnt listening to English songs.
But i wasnt really a country music fan until like, three years ago. One of the reason was that i didnt have the channel because you got to admit, pop, rock, rap music are taking the lead internationally. So when i started to listen to English songs, it always be the pop genre, because i am no fan of rock and rap.
Then i discovered this radio broadcast website that allow people around the world to listen to all hits for all genres. It is www.live365.com, you can find all sort of music genres there. That's when i really started to listen to country songs.
Back then, i only knew Carrie Underwood, and of course, Taylor Swift. But then the circle started to expand, i started to know more and more country artists, more and more country songs in my playlist.
Today, i am sharing some of my playlist songs.
Luke Bryan - Buzzkill
Jason Aldean - Big Green Tractor
Ronnie Dunn - Bleed Red
Josh Turner - Your Man
Chris Young - Tomorrow
Eric Church - Sprintsteen
Carrie Underwood - Good in Goodbye
Carrie Underwood - Temporary Home
Kelly Clackson - Dont Rush
Little Big Town - Pontoon
Lady Antebellum - Down Town
Dierks Bentley - Home
Compare to female singers, i prefer male singers, i think it got some thing to do with the deep tone, haha.
Academic Country Music (ACM) awards 2013 just passed few weeks ago. One of the biggest winners of the night, Miranda Lambert, sadly, she seems to be a very nice person, but i am not a fan of her music, but got to admit, you can truly call her music as the real country music, but i always find her music a bit too rough for me. And i was a bit upset as Carrie Underwood didn't win any awards.
Some people finds country musics boring, because, it is country! But i am very much enjoy myself with it.
