Out of my group of friends I hang out with, I'm the only one who actually likes country music and they bust on me for liking it. I missed out on my one friends 21st birthday because I planned on going to a Eric Church and Kenny Chesney concert way before her birthday, and they still won't let that down that I went to one. What is OTs opinions on country music?

I've never liked it. I can deal with a bit of bluegrass on the rare occaision, but I complete dislike mainstream country.

Carrie Underwood is great. Taylor Swift though...I just don't get how her music can still be classified as country in any way.

Definitely seems to be more like pop.

It's like straight up chick pop now, IMO.

I very much prefer folk and bluegrass over most modern country music. Back in high school I listened to it but these days I prefer to listen to other things. On the occasion there are exceptions.

I think it is tacky, derivative, and over patriotic/nationalistic.

I like it. Not all of it, but I don't like all of any genre. I would love to go to some country concerts but aside from my mom, I don't really have anyone to go with. My boyfriend would rather beat himself to death with a rock than listen to country.

Not my cup of tea. But, my dad and sister love it. So, I'm used to it especially when it came to driving music (eg Eddie Rabbit). I know I'll listen to country music first before hip hop/rap. My actual favorite music genres are classic rock and alternative rock.

Avoid at all costs.  I'm deeply predjudiced against it.

 

I buy into all the stereotypes.

I like the occasional song, but I'm not a fan. My wife asked me to go to a Darius Rucker concert, and I was able to rock out to Hootie, though.

My favorite Country music is from artists who had most of their hits in the 60's/70's/80's.
Johnny Cash
Ronnie Milsap
Don Williams
Waylon Jennings
Willie Nelson
Kenny Rogers
George Jones
Merle Haggard
Hank Williams Jr.
The Highwaymen (group with Johnny, Willie, Waylon and Kris Kristofferson - mostly for the song Highwayman)

The best local radio station which plays almost all that music exclusively is http://www.countrylegends1069.com/

No.

While that particular stereotype is untrue, I have to agree that, by and large, the lyrics are the worst thing Country Music has going for it.

Sucks, and the ones that manage to be okay are basically just copying pop and rock music.
