Charles Ramos4 said:A country where those kinds of albums are sitting in the top 10 bestsellers deserves nothing less than to fall apart. Seriously—the musical taste in this country is just straight-up trash. 🤦
BubbyBu, why are you even trying to justify yourself to a guy who suggested dead Motley Crue for Album of the Week just two weeks ago? 🙄
Country Music and its modern pop successors have always been the biggest thing in the US. My old man used to claim—if I remember him right—that those big American country hits were always the most popular in places like New York. Maybe that’s a bit radical or just plain wrong, but honestly? I’d say New Yorkers actually listen to modern pop-country more than people in other cities do—plus, Americans as a whole are just a more cultured, well-read crowd, regardless of where they're from.
Look, the list is what it is—no point crying about it. All I know is that regardless of what kind of country this ends up being, I’d much rather have spent my youth at some community service project holding hands with a cute girl from a neighboring state, with Blue Orchestra playing in the background, than living through this messy transition era where everyone's obsessed with their phones and chasing empty promises of a bright future.
