♫ ♪ ♫ Country.
From her cowboy boots to her down home roots.
She's country.
From the songs she plays to the prayers she prays.
That's the way she was born and raised.
She ain't afraid to stay, country. ♫ ♪ ♪
(She's Country by Jason Aldean)

I will be the FIRST to say that I NEVER used to like country music. I hated it, actually. It made me cringe. Living in the south gives you an appreciation for it, somehow. I NEVER thought I would ever say something like that, ever.

Country music is something I love. It's the music of the South. It makes me: feel at home, want to put my boots on, want to take a long deep breath of fresh country air, want to walk through an open field, want to go down to a farm and work really really hard, want to ride a plow through a humongous field and get all dusty and dirty, happy to have the freedom to be MYSELF.

OMG I so totally relate to what you are saying!! I remember hating the whole country and americana genre; I just couldn't bear it. Then one day it sort of clicked and not only did l like it, i actually got it. I think some of the greatest story tellers of our generation are the obscure and unknown bluegrass players of our area. Oh, btw, this is a lovely shot as well~it's going to my favorites. 365edgar · 2010-03-19: 22:20
