I actually like it. This is the version featuring Billy Ray Cyrus:

And apparently Keith Urban has done a banjo cover

You do realize Little Nas has Billy Ray Cyrus on his song now right? Cyrus even added a verse. Hence why it’s back on the country chart.

Hey nowwwww....

There use to be a bar in Tulsa called “Cadillac Country “ and I would line dance to this song

It was off the hook and chicks dug my freestyle version of line dancing to it.

Heck, I would jump up on the speakers and shake it!

Yeah, no, this isn’t country. It’s only rap.

My kids and wife love this song

I prefer Ryan Upchurch

Man I knew Noah Cyrus when she was a child....her mom could be very pretty

But liked to wander...

Brett Michaels who also made a run at my rib

Welcome to Franklin Tennsseee

My kids went to school with them and we ran into them at a Miami Beach a few years back

Noah is the only one with any sense ....hope she stays that way

Billy Ray does have a knack for knowing which direction the money is I’ll give him that..

Waylon used to loan him money in the early days when he’d almost return to the hills giving up before ABH

I like the Bakersfield sound.

Dwight Yokum's Streets of Bakersfield in particular.

It has great instrumental with mandolin, violin and accordion with a kind of Mexican/Mariachi flare.

In my mind the music would be good even without lyrics.

One of these days I’ve got to get back into Red Dead Redemption. And yes the song sucks, and no, it’s not country.

I'll see your Polish metal, and raise *Yu* MONGOLIAN!

Note: The music doesn't start until about a minute in.

I have recently discovered symphonic metal and I like what I hear.

“Within Temptation” is very good but, at the moment, I’m really into “Nightwish”. Floor Jansen can really sing.

I was just at a Within Temptation concert (March 15). Sharon den Adel has a fantastic set of pipes, but they were getting tired, as the band had been touring since November, and the show I went to was their 4th last of the tour, and 3rd in 5 days, plus travelling. They were still nearly perfect despite fatigue.

All 3 Nightwish singers were fantastic. Tarja and Anette left under odd circumstances, and Floor certainly was a great addition to the group. I still cannot speak for several seconds after Floor’s 2013 performance of Ghost Love Score at Wacken. She hits and holds a note that is unbelievable. That’s after singing from diaphragm, throat AND head in the same song!

I got about 30 seconds into it before turning it off. Not only is it not country music ... it’s not MUSIC.
