There’s been a proliferation, recently, of country songs that can be summarized as “Why don’t we get drunk and screw?” I hope the fad passes quickly ... let’s have some murder ballads!
Toby Keith did a song a while back, “You Shouldn’t Kiss Me Like This”: the song itself was romantic and really sweet, but the video was filthy. I hate when they do that.

Completely agree. There’s no reason to do it and that’s not what Country music is about.

There’s nothing wrong with a little romantic passion, “I fell into a burning ring of fire ...,” but it should be understated instead of coarsely blatant, and everyone please keep their clothes on in public.

I can remember that back in the ‘50s a song titled “A Back Street Affair” (can’t remember the singer) was banned on many radio stations because of the subject. No lyrics suggested anything but an extra-marital affair.

Just watched the Julianne Hough video. The girl is so hot, she could melt the paint off a car, just walking past.
The video turns me off though. It starts out fine, but then she has to get OVERTLY sexual.
Why can't people be satisfied with just a tease of seduction? Why does it have to be so in your face.
I remember the flack Shania Twain was catching in her early days. The worst she did was bare her midriff.
For a woman of 48, she's still hot.

David Allen Coe! Some of his songs done today would land you in jail!
In his day, Jerry Reed did some raunchy stuff.
To: mountn man
Shania Twain wiggled very provocatively ;-). And yes, she is holding up very well. She exercises, of course, and I believe I read that she’s a strict vegetarian.

Yep, there were so many good Country songs I can’t begin to remember them. For many years it’s all I listened to on the radio but now most of it is Pop music.

I remember some songs, BACK IN 1968, that were so “hot” you had to ask for them at the record store! This one I heard was very racist.

Have you ever been just drivin’ around, and ended up in the colored part of town? And you see an old-time wanderoo Jack with a great big T.V. antenna. Then you look out in the back, you can always see a Cadillac......
I’ll stop right here but I do remember the flip side was KAJUN KKK. And NO! I WILL NOT PROVIDE A LINK!

Shania Twain wiggled very provocatively ;-). YES...SHE DID.
But she did it fully clothed (except for her belly) and it was done with a little wink. I found it ... intriguing, but tasteful.
