I Like All Types of Music but...

Christian Rock?

No. The expected answer would be country. Many of you despise country music for whatever reason. Is it because you "don't want to hear some guy singing at a bar about why he lost his girlfriend or has no money?" Okay, even though this song pinpoints that situation exactly, not all country music is like that.

Country music tells a story. The lyrics of any country song would send Nicki Minaj to Pleasure Town by how true a story may seem.

Despite my 2,000 views (yippee!), I feel like I have the same 12 readers. And I love all 12 of you like that favorite Bic ball-point pen that you use in class everyday...yeah you know what I'm talking about. However, there are the constant slam pieces that check the shrine that is tedcullinane.blogspot.com, and tickle me pink if any of you girls have never listened to Taylor Swift. For this blog post we'll call her style of music "country"...itunes has my back on this as well.

So girls, tell me that a senior boy has never winked at you when you were a freshman and said "I haven't seen you around here," only then to lead you on and swipe away your V-card faster than you could say "did you at least pull out?"

And boys, you're trying to tell me that you've never said "I'm pretty good at drinking beer?" Yes, this song actually exists. Check it out its by Billy Currington. If you still think that country music doesn't tell a story about you, well first of all you're never going to get invited to a keg party, and secondly Kenny Chesney's new song "Boys of Fall" talks about what it's like to play on a high school football team. Yeah, I'm not making this up, he actually sings about what it is like being on a high school football team.

Now if you're still thinking, "Oh boy I really have him on this one. Ted will never pinpoint a song that describes a story in my life," well you're right because it's just not worth my effort at this point.

However, if you are starting to second guess country music and you want to give it a try during the summer, which in fact is the best time of year for country music, I will now list off a few country jingles that you might like. Don't worry this won't be like any music reviews found in any High School newspaper's "Entertainment" section, or a lame Robert Pattinson celebrity playlist found on itunes.

"Chicken Fried" (Zac Brown Band)- This song popped my country music cherry about a year and a half ago. It's catchy, and it makes you want to live in Georgia.

"I Love your Love the Most" (Eric Church)- Any Eric Church is phenomenal, this song epitomizes country music.

"Two Pink Lines" (Eric Church)- Yes, another great Eric Church song. Although I hope this song never described a story in your life, the lyrics are funny and you can actually understand them.

"Red Dirt Road" (Brooks and Dunn)- Try finding where your Red Dirt Road is. Maybe Goddard Park? Academy Field?

That's all I'll give you now. Believe me I worked hard on finding user friendly songs, so trust me and try them out. So now I leave you with the random blogpost music video...guess what genre it will fall under?

WRONG!! Not country.
Just Random.
