Steve Goodman and John Prine are said to have written the "perfect" country song. Incorporating as it does trucks, trains, the rain, mama, drinkin' and prison.
"Well, I was drunk the day my mama got out of prison
And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got run over by a damned old train..."
Honorable mention to King Turd on Shit Mountain by Sturgill.
I'm sure there's some dumbass country "truck-beer-girl-dog" songs that are great. Haven't heard any but still
Don't forget jeans. Gotta throw those in
I get the hate for truck beers, don't DUI folks. But what's wrong with girl dogs?
Yeah...
Girl-dog
It called hick-hop
Yeah this is more folk, like Fleetwood Mac or others. What would be called stadium country is pure trash, but god damn that folk music..
If you haven't seen it, I implore you to watch the Studio Ghibli film Whisper of the Heart. This song features heavily. It's my favorite Ghibli film, heck it's possibly my favorite film period.
Just saw it for the first time a couple days ago. Beautiful film. Been keeping a running list of what age I should show Ghibli movies to my niece. I put this one at 13. She turns 4 soon, which I think is a good age to start her with Ponyo.
Thank you, this is an unexpectedly wholesome recommendation on a shitpost.
Or sing "Wet Vagina" and see if anyone notices.
Why do you think the other line is "mount'n mamma"?
Had Mr sunshine on his goddamn shoulders ever visited wv he would have changed the lyrics..... Ain't nobody Wana go the the shithole that is wv
I'll say this, it's one of the most beautiful states as far as nature goes. Going white-water rafting in the fall when the leaves are changing in the New River Gorge was spectacular. But everything else about the state.... yeah. I traveled quite extensively there when I financially audited a coal company. It's honestly just hopeless how poor and uneducated the people are, and how they vote against their own interests every single time, only making their situation more desperate.
100% this. I live like 4 miles from wv and have spent My whole life traveling through and doing industrial contractor work through every part of that state. The only parts that aren't absolutely trash are the places people can't live. We should just exterminate it and turn it into a national park....mother fuckers from there can't even drive once they cross the line, they are always the ones that are going 10mph under the speed limit because they are confused by roads that aren't shit.
John Denver confirmed it was written about Clopper rd in Gaithersburg, MD when he would frequent it on his way home to WV.
"So I thought about it and I said well the guys going home to West Virginia He's going through Virginia and he's passing the Blue ridge mountains in the Shenandoah River". Bill Danoff -cowriter
EDIT: Forgot to add, when I met my Filipina fiancรฉ I wasn't sure what sorts of American culture she had been exposed to. LOL, put on Country Roads and she started belting it out. 9 to 5 also!
I didn't know the NFL played games outside the USA. Odd that two American teams are playing in Germany. I wonder what the audience demographics are. Do Americans travel to Germany to watch the games or are there mostly Germans there?
I exclusively associate that song with RTGame on YouTube obliterating his cities in Cities Skylines.
As an aside, IRL I like to call the state "Left Virginia" for ironic shits and giggles.
That works on two levels, whether you're bad at maps or want to reference it's origin of leaving Virginia to stay with the Union during the civil war.
The most modern country music I will listen to is Garth Brooks. Unless Country Song by Seether counts as country music.
Jason Isbell?
Sturgill Simpson?
Blackberry Smoke?
Billy MF Strings?
Or do you like music about American flags, cheating pickup trucks, dead dogs, and terminally ill wives?
By odd chance, I got turned onto Sturgill last month and I've had all the albums on repeat since. I had always liked the odd bluegrass or folk song, but never had a real in with country before this. Excited to check out the rest of this list!
Fingers crossed that one of these are still touring.
Well here's a few links to some older stuff but all are current and living heh...
No, you hate pop country
True statement. Miss me with that truck-beer-girl-dog shit.
Huntin' deer, chasin' trout. A Bud Light with the logo facin' out!

Is that country or folk?
It was country music, back when it came out.
Now it would probably be called "Americana" or something.
Also me whenever Dolly Parton's 'Jolene' comes on
Johnny Cash too!
My Filipina gf knew that one too! OTOH, "I do not know, what's this?, Metallica?"
I am not American but I still like these songs.
Highwayman
Wichita Lineman
Hello Walls
Funny how time slips away

Sound and Fury isn't country but is probably my favorite album ever. There's also an anime of it.
Garth needs to tell the families where the bodies are buried, they need closure
Give Dixieland Delight a try, similar vibe
Anything by Alabama tbh.
