Sordid confession.....part 1

Earlier I commented on there are certain things you can’t public admit to – here is one of my confessions. Ready?

…I quite like (some) country music….

There, said it – it’s now ‘out there’.

Yes, a lot of it is dreadful, it can be corny and too many songs contain lyrics about dogs dying. But in my defence I offer the following chorus from one country artist’s album;

“Well it’s perfectly clear, between the TV and beer,
I won’t get so much as kiss.
As I head for the door, I turn around to be sure;
did I shave my legs for this?
Darling, did I shave my legs for this?” (Deana Carter, 1996)

How can you not like a music genre which has lyrics like that???
