The gay country song taking America by storm

[Crossless2.0]

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.

It didn't take until the turn of the century for "country music" to turn into generic pop music. I remember how shitty it was back in the '80s when you had fake country artists like Eddie Rabbit and Kenny Rogers topping the charts. Awful, just awful. Of course, you're right about contemporary country: it is generic pop music, which is pretty much what you'd expect from a generation of recording artists whose first taste of country was probably their parents' Eagles albums. I like the old stuff that sounded like it was recorded by people who had crawled, drunk and bleeding, from at least one roadhouse -- redneck blues.
