Welcome to the 21st century, people! This is what country music is now a-days. Generic pop music with country-sounding voices that appeal to teenagers.

All country music sucks
As does all folk music and whatever that shit they Morris dance to is.

I hate country music. I always have, and I say this as someone who was born & raised in Kansas, a place where if you don't like country music you won't be able to find a decent radio station to listen to.

Every so often, though, I find myself forced to listen to it, and these days at least it's all filled with God talk or making some religious reference here or there. At least in the 80's when I worked for my dad and had to listen to it it was all about cheating on your wife and getting drunk.

Right, I shall make it my mission to record some country and folk songs in an effort to get you to like them.

I can't stand country music, and I haven't listened to the song yet.

Gotta admire the guy's courage, though.

If someone mistakenly labeled it country, it's close enough that I'll almost certainly hate it.

This is me wishing I hadn't left my headphones in the car. Can't very well give it a listen at work without them.

It's country as you would recognize it, CD. When frankie says it's not country, he means it's not like Johnny Cash.

(And yes, the music is terrible)

Really? Fair enough...

Just because it has an acoustic in it doesn't make it country.
I assume it must be a common thing over there for stuff like this to be labelled like that, aye?

In America, country music is simply pop music sung with a twang. The twang is literally the only thing necessary to be consider country music here.
