Our Country Music Chat

Not to get this chat off to a bad start of course, but go here to read about a new arrest in country music, may this good new singer be able to maintain his momentum especially if this ends up being his only self inflicted set back.

God bless you and Michael Ray always!!!

P.S. He recently scored another big hit with his song named "Think A Little Less". What reason does he have to make drugs a part of his picture?

[Ray O. Blu]

I admire your passion for the performers that you love.
They become intimate parts of our lives and bring us joy and get us through the hard times.

Drugs are always a negative part of any equation. Hope he learns a lesson and moves on to brighter tomorrows.

Random thought: I was just listening to Sara Evans “Born to Fly” a few minutes ago. Such a beautiful song. She has some really nice songs that tell beautiful, heartfelt stories.

Here’s the video, if anyone is interested:

^^^ What I love about that video is it being Wizard Of Oz oriented. Here is another video that was done back in the day with a movie theme.

God bless you and Sara and Sherrie always!!!

Earlier today, Rascal Flatts announced that the tour that they do this year will be their farewell tour after being on the radio for the past 20 years now. Go here for the news clip and their tour dates.

I was able to see them back in 2003 when they opened for Kenny Chesney during his Neyland Stadium show in Knoxville, TN. They were awesome. My most favorite song from them is “While You Loved Me”.

God bless you and the guys and Kenny always!!!

Holly

P.S. Am I the only person here who realizes that they never once were given a Grammy award? “Bless The Broken Road” was named Best Country Song, but that award never goes to the singer. The guys were able score four nominations in the Best Country Duo/Group Performance category, but currently that may be as far as their Grammy road has taken them.

One singer that we haven’t heard anything new from in a while is Trace Adkins. Not only will a new song from him named “Better Off” be released this Friday, but go here to see what else is now going to be done by him. I just pray that its successful for him because in my opinion, it could be a hysterical thing to watch with Trace being the way that I know him to be and all.

God bless you and him always!!!

Holly (a day one fan of him)

P.S. Apparently a premiere date has not been set yet.

[JamesOttoSweetHeart]

I pray so hard that country singer Joe Diffie doesn't go anywhere anytime soon.

God bless you and him always!!!

P.S. Sadly his awesome Music City News award show performance of "The Ships That Don't Come In" isn't at You Tube right now and so here is the official video clip for the song instead.

Go here for the latest news concerning the Covid-19 matter. I have a foot in both fields which of course means that I understand both sides of the situation completely, but since a person can't sit on the fence forever, no rhyme intended there, I can't blame Chase and Chris for getting out there again when at the end of the day, what a person chooses to do with their lives is all up to them and only them and to me, if a person wants to spend the rest of their lives in a Petri dish, its their life, but what plenty of people obviously do not get is that not everyone is going to have the same frame of mind which in my opinion is a good thing because only so many people can fit in a Petri dish anyway.

God bless you and Chase and Chris always!!!

I saved a lot of money buying two 100 Hits Country CD, and finding 90s country at Goodwill. I must have 25 Country CDs with 20th century songs. Oldies.

We still have Hank III, and Lukas Nelson releasing songs.

[JamesOttoSweetHeart]

Well, the latest in country music concerns newer country act Morgan Wallen. According to this write up here, his Saturday Night Live appearance will not be happening this weekend due to his recent public activity.

https://tasteofcountry.com/morgan-wa...tiktok-videos/

Out of what I’ve heard from him so far, his newest song named “Seven Summers Ago” is his best and I hope that it can at least be as successful as his previous release if not better, but I can’t help but wonder how this will affect his radio performance. Do keep in mind that back in May, he was charged with public intoxication and disorderly conduct which I am guessing is what brought an end to his #1 streak according to his list of songs here.

God bless you and his family always!!!

Holly

P.S. The charges against him were eventually dropped according to what was just now said on the Inside Edition show concerning this matter.

[JamesOttoSweetHeart]

According to this write up here, Lee Brice is the latest singer in country music to have the Covid sickness.

God bless you and him always!!!

Holly

[JamesOttoSweetHeart]

God bless you and those who have been impacted the most always!!!

Go here for more news concerning the Covid matter.

God bless you and every impacted person who is still here always!!!

It was so cool to see a country act take part in the Super Bowl again and who better than the current CMA Entertainer of the Year winner? To me, the best ever half time show was the one of 1994 because a country act did every song.

God bless you and each one and Eric Church always!!!

Holly

P.S. Here is Eric's performance of our nation's anthem.

So Morgan Wallen recently shared a new video of himself concerning the recent headlines that he has made for himself. I pray that this newest wake up call of his is the last one that he’ll ever need. Getting on the road of sobriety is already a good step in the right direction and yes, nine days without a drink may not be much to write home about at the moment, but may the beat that he is currently playing only go on.

God bless you and him and his family always!!!

Holly

P.S. This reminds me of what is said in my most favorite TV show: “Rome may have been built in a day, but it did take a month to secure it.”

[JamesOttoSweetHeart]

Go here to see who will be a part of tomorrow night's Grand Ole Opry TV special.

God bless you always!!!

Happy 47th birthday to 90s singer Bryan White.

P.S. The following is my most favorite song from fellow 90's singer Mindy McCready who sadly went forward on this day in 2013.

Here is an interesting new clip concerning the current state of country music.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33N1juTcZ_I

I remember the lady singer who is talked to in the middle of the clip named Rissi Palmer who is an African American country singer. I am blown away over what she had to say concerning the way that things have gone for her when its time for her to go on stage. How can the security people not know that she is a singer for the gathering's entertainment?

God bless you and Rissi always!!!
