See what Country song was #1 on the day you were born

[Mudbugclub]

Bit of fun this, but I do like the old country stuff.

My song is - Jerry Reed - She Got the Goldmine (I Got the Shaft).

Country songs have some great song titles!

Begging to You - Marty Robbins.

Love current country music, not so much the older stuff.

The Ways to Love a Man - Tammy Wynette

I am so over current country. I feel like it lost its individuality about 5-6 years ago and now most of the male singers sound very similar and the lyrics are about either a.) being a crazy redneck, or b.) military/patriotism.

I tell everyone that today's country reminds me of 80's power pop. It barely resembles the country music of the 60's and 70's.

Which is why I like it, haha! My brother feels as you do Walter, he'll say "That is NOT country".

For me, the optimism in today's country music reminds me of the innocence of the 50's rock.

Blake Shelton (Who Are You When I'm Not Looking)

Do you pour a little something on the rocks

Slide down the hallway in your socks

When you undress do you leave a path

Then sink to your nose in a bubble bath?

or

Blake Shelton (Sure Be Cool if You Did)

You don't have to throw back your pretty pink lemonade shooter

And lean a little closer

You don't have to keep on smiling that smile that's driving me wild

And when the night is almost over

Meet me in the middle of a moonlit Chevy bench seat

And do a little bit of country song, hanging on

You don't have to keep me falling like this

But it'd sure be cool if you did

Of course, I like more than Blake, but the lyrics just seem to be so innocent and light.

OK, sorry to derail the OP, hopefully others will check in for their birthdate as well.
