Tim McGraw is one of my favorite country artists and I actually have a country song as my #47 which I'll talk about down below.
Some of my favorite McGraw songs are "Live Like You Were Dying", "Where The Green Grass Grows", and "Humble And Kind", as well as a score of others. I had not heard "How I'll Always Be" in a while so thanks for reminding me of that one.
My #47 is a song that came out just a couple years ago from perhaps my favorite new artist of recent years, Zach Bryan.
Zach Bryan - Oklahoma Smokeshow (2022)
This song to me is about a man who loves a girl who will never escape the rough small town she was raised in. He wants to take her out of that town but she is trapped there, having fallen in with the "bad boys", who dashed her dreams of ever finding a better life with this one man. She is now trapped in this town for good and the man is forced to realize she has made her choice and is doomed to her fate and her "puddle of tears."
I've been playing this song extensively since it came out and thus it is already in my Top 50 despite being only a couple years old.
Here is a running tally of my iTunes countdown so far.
You're already on the ping list. See Post #3 above.
You've got a great list going, too!
