Well, ok, I'm at work again. Bored to tears.
I went to a local store and picked up some magazines, lets see how it gets before I lose interest in 'em. (Still stuck listening to country, I'm trying to ignore it the best I can, but it's not working too well, maybe when I start reading I'll be able to ignore it better. <b>Can't use earplug in my profession
, wish I could. Thanks for the idea though Stacy!
</b>)

Ok, explain this to me....why does it sound like when you hear a non-country song as country, it sounds 'bastardized'? But when you go in reverse it sounds 10x better?
Examples:
This Country Music station was playing a 'country' version of Aerosmith's <i>Don't wanna miss a thing</i> From the <u>Armegeddon</u> Soundtrack and it sounded like they just destoryed a great song!
<b>But.....</b>
I was listening to an Alternative Station the other day, ('The X' for anyone in PA....those of you not in PA, goto: http://www.1059thex.com and listen online!) And someone took the Faith Hill Song <i>Breathe</i> and made it Alternative and it sounded SOOOO much better! :up (It was a guy singing it instead of a woman, but that wasn't what made it better.)
Ok, this country music is getting annoying, I'm going to reading my magazines now to TRY and ignore the music.

Oh come on Barefoot.....gimmie something more than that! 
It's like when NascarFool posted a pic and it had to get changed since it was too risque for a PUBLIC board....BUT many people flocked to him to let them know what the original was anyway.

like teasing us with winning a contest and then saying "You're Not allowed to win", but not saying why.
It's a Forum for opinions, please give them. (Especially on Country Music.....

(FYI: I'm going to try and remove my Sig from the posts I put in this thread so we have more room for other stuff without shoving everything to other pages just due to all the sig graphics.)

Todays country sucks, yep. It like pop, yet not? I still enjoy Garth Brooks though...he sings about more meaningful things. Clint Black is pretty good too. Shania Twain has a nice voice and is damn sexy...that's about it.

Country music....I won't let that crap filter into my head, it all SUCKS....okay, I lie.....'old' country....what I HAD NO choice but to listen to as a KID....well, some of it brings back memories.....but you DID NOT see me say that, like the sig says. 
Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

Another one of your 1,000 personalities talking again stacy? 
I accept the fact that there are a FEW country singers who <b>don't</b> sound country. I catagorize them with out-of-tune, front road people, american knife, etc. (ok, who can get these Pop star Parodys?) 
I guess getting stuck with country music is fitting since the place I am working at is More or less in the middle of the country/middle of nowhere. *& (I will be glad when the person I am substituting for comes back! )* But you gotta see the Mileage I'm putting on my car to get here! Traveling 80miles a day!
At Least I'm getting reimbursed for it!

Soooooo.....you want me to actually post my opinion, eh? Okay. Just don't say you didn't ask for it 
WHY I HATE COUNTRY MUSIC
1. How many themes are there? Beer, women who left you, your dog, women who left you and took your dog, your car/truck, and women who left you and took your dog and your car/truck. Only Britney Spears has such a limited variety in the rest of the world.
2. There is not a more annoying sound than a country singer wailing on a high note, singing through their nose. Well, maybe a PC speaker, but still! It makes my ears hurt!
3. They all sound the same. With the exception of a few renegades, every guy country singer sounds the same (especially during them high notes), and every girl country singer sounds the same. Some renegades:
(That space was intentionally left blank. Those renegades didn't last long, there's no market for them.)
4. If a rock star and a country star were pitted against each other in a WWF match, my money's on the rock star.
5. It's not cool to drive through da hood with country music blaring through your subs. Heck, it ain't cool to drive anywhere with country music blaring through anything!
6. How many country stars do you hear of going on world tours? How many rock bands do you hear of going on world tours? Yeah, that's what I thought.
7. Yet another American invention that is unique to America. Yet another invention that is unique to America that also annoys the crap out of much of the populace.
8. This is my own personal reason: I HATE COUNTRY!!
Any questions? Too bad. That's my opinion
Happy now, Zyph? hehehehehehehehe :tongue

After 10pm, I'm like a werewolf, except I become stupid and incoherent instead of hairy and mean.
