TheLizard Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Fun fact #1: Folsom Prison Blues got 94 points. Followed by Walkin' After Midnight with 62. That's a 32 point difference. I think that's a pretty definitive statement on what we consider to be the greatest country song of all time. Fun fact #2: Both my nominations made it. That pretty much never happens. You guys have fantastic taste in country music. Fun opinion: I think our combined efforts resulted in what can truly objectively be called the 10 greatest country songs of all time, based on both quality and importance.

pinkstones Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Wow, country music is not even remotely close to a genre I enjoy and I STILL get a song in the Top 10. How very awesome! Thanks to all who voted for I Fall To Pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkstones Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Save your rudeness for someone else because I want no part of it. If you insist on talking to me in such a base manner, you can do so via PT so that no one else needs to deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted October 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Pinkstones plays because she is a regular player in the Top Ten. Like many of us, she's participates every week, even if the subject is not quite her cup of tea. She certainly doesn't deserve to be berated for it. I don't know what the above post is supposed to mean, but it sounds rude to me as well. I don't care for it at all ....and Pinkstones has done nothing to deserve it.

Lucky Posted October 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 This was a great week in my opinion, I love this ten. A bunch of true classics, peppered with CDB, Marshall Tucker, and the Flying Burrito Brothers. I was afraid that no one would enjoy this ... I was wrong. Thanks to everybody for playing this week!

chutzpah Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 I think that's a good top ten And once again one artist made it twice And Patsy Cline probably has every right to be in there twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel2Velvet Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 I think that's a good top ten And once again one artist made it twice And Patsy Cline probably has every right to be in there twice. Yeah, good on Patsy! I never appreciated country as a music genre until I worked as an account rep/DJ at a smallish country station (WPFB AM/FM Middletown, Ohio) and really listened to its diversity, musicianship and flexibility. What I find most enjoyable is that most of country's artists make records without the ton of electronic enhancements that seem so pervasive in today's pop genre, plus retaining a lyrical astuteness missing in the heavier rock acts of today. The raw talent and devotion to reality found in much of country music puts me in mind of 60's fledgling pop/rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
