let's face it. Steve Earle only has one good song - Copperhead Road.

Um, okay. You're familiar with the one song he had that ever got any airplay. It's a good one, mind you, but it's not even the best song on the album.

Like somebody said, it's better to keep your mouth shut and have people think you a fool, than speak and remove all doubt.

Um, okay. First, you assume that the only Steve Earle song I've ever heard is Copperhead Road, because that's the only one that I like.

Then you quote an overused cliche in order to call me a fool because I don't like more of his songs... I think you should follow your own advice about fools being wise in keeping their mouths shut.

Actually, I've heard plenty of his music, and I STILL only like the one song. The fact that Copperhead Road is the only Steve Earle song that has ever gotten any real airtime only proves that disk jockeys, music listeners and album buyers across the fruited plains agree with me.

To return to the original discussion, it appears obvious to me that in this case Stevie is resorting to controversy in order to get people to notice him.
