One is a sort of country-western-parody cabaret song: "Tears at the Happy Hour," music by William Bolcom, lyrics by Joan Morris and William Bolcom.
The other is one that Frankie Laine sang, without realizing it was for a comedy: "Blazing Saddles"

Life is too short to wake up with regrets ~So love the people who treat you right
Forget about those who don't ~ Believe everything happens for a reason.
If you get a chance, take it If it changes your life, let it ~Nobody said life would be easy,
they just promised it would most likely be worth it~ remember, Sometimes Miracles Hide
My favorite country song is "I Cross My Heart" by George Strait. I like all of the songs from the movie "Pure Country."

I love country music and those of us in Southern California are crying this week as KZLA changed its format.
Favorite country song: "He Stopped Loving Her Today" classic George Jones.

Can you get KFROG, Maus?? Last week I was curious so I tried it from San Pedro and it came in fine! It's 95.1.Originally Posted by Maus
I'm not a fan, but my all time favorite song is "One Hot Mama" by Trace Adkins.
I've liked other country songs over the years - Crazy by Patsy Cline, Forever & Ever Amen by Randy Travis. But Trace is holdin' my heart these days.

Yup, I've switched to KFROG but I miss the DJs on KZLA. When I took the toll road yesterday to Irvine it was fading in and out. They just don't have a strong enough signal. I'm really surprised you got it in San Pedro. Downtown LA has no country station now.Originally Posted by adriennek
Sorry for the derail...
My SECOND favorite country song is "Beer for My Horses" with Toby Keith and Willie Nelson. I crank it up and sing along. It's not pretty.

"I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" -- Hank Williams
I have lots! Favorite?
Angels Among Us by Alabama.
I don't know if you will remember the story, but a woman in South Carolina reported her two kids abducted in a carjacking. Later they found out she drove them into a lake.A local radio station played that song interupted with news bytes of the story. Everytime I hear that song now I think of those little boys.
I know it's sad, but it still gives me goosebumps!
"Friends in Low Places" -- Garth Brooks

1976, Nov. 14-22, '94; June 1-5, '03; June 4-10, '04; Oct. 6-10, '04; Dec. 29, '04-Jan. 3, '05; June 3-12, '05; Dec. 2-8, '05; Jan. 28-31, '06; May 7-13, '06
How about "Feels So Right" by Alabama
the one from garth "Unanswered Prayers."
but recently I love the one "Love your Baby Girl" by Sugarland
Another favorite....
Trace Adkins....The rest of mine....
Yeah I'm the one to blame for AdrienneK's current 'fav' I have a tendency to tell her change your tv to CMT RIGHT NOW....she's found country isn't 'that bad' LOL

Country music has the best storytellers, bar none. Trace Adkins is not only a great storyteller ("I'm Tryin'") but Mrs. Trace is one lucky woman.Originally Posted by MammaSilva

Is Johnny Cash considered "country?"
Well, I'm such a child of the 80s, my fav country music is because you've had me watch the videos. And while it definitely runs second to Trace, I have to add Lone Star's "Mr. Mom" to the list for that reasonOriginally Posted by MammaSilva

Having been a country fan most of my life (I did a span of time of refusing to listen cuz I was a teenager and my folks listened to country therefore it wasn't COOL) then coming home to my "roots" I love all the country from the blue grass of Bill Monroe to the new stuff by Rascall Flatts (my boys!) and Shania Twain and Sugarland! I agree with Helen, the storytellers end up doing country songs...from the hokey dog got ran over by the train I was riding on my way home from prison to the newer more 'real' stuff by Garth and George and the boys from the bowery....without the story there is no song...
