I guess my stats are a bit mixed up. I only recently started listening to country music ( a combination of liking johnny cash and irish folk will eventually lead you to experiment with other types of hick music.) villager used to be a country music girl before she got into rock and metal. She told me that countrys basically become a parody of itself. After seeing the video for "tater fed" i accepted that assessment.

i must investigate that when i get home...

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Also if you watch that video you might notice that they show everyother vegetable you could possibly eat -except for potatoes- until the very end. Also he has to mention hell kick your ass if you give him a reason somewhere in the chorus.

[Elder Iptuous]

so.... it's a country video espousing a violent vegetarian lifestyle?   

[Nephew Twiddleton]

No see... He was fed on taters (and apparently onions and peppers and carrots...) so that makes him tough.

Maybe its a southern thing but i believe ireland had six failed revolutions after the introduction of the tater. Considering southerners drink as much whiskey as the irish i must assume the beta carroteen is actually the contributing factor to toughness.

Country has been fucked since long before I was born.  Sturgeon was a fucking optimist.

hmm...
were the peppers shown of the pansy variety, or the chili variety?  in TX, we put various chili peppers on our foods until they act as a nasal depilatory.  that could also have an impact on our ability to kick the asses of our fanbases.

It's the corporate influnces. You can still find the REAL SPIRIT OF COUNTRY in the honky tonks, occasionally.

I have a list.  I'll post it tonight or tomorrow.

Bear in mind that what I'm going to post isn't necessarily the best sounding country music, and some of the titles may surprise you...But they're the best representation of what country music is trying to say (mostly it's the White version of Afroman's Because I Got High).

Leon Payne, Twid. He's the guy who actually wrote Lost Highway, even though everybody thinks it was Hank.

Hank always mentioned Leon Payne before he played that, except once, when he said "A new song I recorded".  Apparently, he fell all over himself apologizing right afterward, much to Leon Payne's amusement.

Also, Porter Waggoner wrote almost all of Johnny Cash's good stuff.

Just saying.
