I went to my very first country music concert Saturday night.  Kenny Chesney was at Mohegan Sun with LeAnne Rimes opening up for him.  I was turned onto Country music nearly 2 years ago by a friend who insisted I'd like it if I gave it a chance.  So with an open mind, I listened to her playlist of fav country songs.  Who knew 2 years later I'd be attending Country music concerts!  I like lots of music.  I've seen Billy Joel, Bon Jovi, Janet Jackson, Aerosmith, James Taylor just to name a few.  He was by far one of the BEST performers!  Any Country fans out there?  Tell me your favorite and help me expand my music playlist for me!  ~ smiley.....

I have to admit...my wife has listened for 10+ year...I used to turn it on back then...Clint Black, Garth etc..and never admit it.

Try www.sugarlandmusic.com it's an OK site but they have songs playing on it....can't believe you haven't heard them yet. :)

I like the songs with a meaning to them

Craig Morgan-Almost Home
John Michael Montgomery-Letters from home
Phil Vasser-Another day in paradise
Brad Paisley-When I get where I'm going.
David Kersh- Goodnight Sweetheart
Bucky Covington-Different World
Billy Currington-Good Directions

These are just a few of my favorites and the lyrics hit home of some of them and just put me in a good place on others. I always played Country music around the kids when they were babys and I'd sing with the songs. Today some 5 years later they love the music and always come to listen and dance with their Dad whsn I play my compliation CD's.
