"and I've never needed a government to hold my hand" I know many of you do not care for country music, but dang, if this 'up and coming' music video (#2 on CMT) don't sum up a lot of about a lot of us, from beginning to end:  |

I guess he couldnt make it singing that scream-o emo shit, so now he's trying his hand at the Kid-Rock style "Rock-a-Country" shit.
It started out confusing enough. There isnt much of a chorus, the verses seem to run into one another, and lets be honest, Lewis doesnt have what most would call a great voice. I dont suppose all of those Marlboro Reds help.  .........and just when things seem like they couldnt be more of a clusterfuck, they bring (rolled) in the Possum , and that clouded the water up even further. It was just a clusterfuck. Just a clusterfuck.
But scince he mentions "9" and ".45" (and a the Possum) the majority of the membership here will download it to thier i-pods. |

It is probably a lot like the country boy from the city of Detroit. just for clarification, I actually like the song and like Kid Rock, but being a fake cowboy/country boy doesn't do much for me. I know what a "country boy" is. YMMV

The arraingement wasn't moving and the song didn't seem to flow whatsoever. Just because he shows a Gadsen Flag and rifle and has some manly lines doesn't mean it's a good song. Maybe Jamie Johnson could rewrite the premise of it and make a good song. At least he can sing. |

I thought that was actually pretty cool. I was just making fun of the band "staind" with my friend last night then, always thought they were lame, but this was actually pretty good. I like the message and I think the country style suits this guy a lot better than that nu-metal bullshit did

Even though he's from MA, his home town is small. ~1200-1500 people. He's a hunter and conservative libertarian. I think the bigger question with his background is how he ended up in a rock band/Hollywood scene (which is what the song is about). I like it.

Agreed. Despite popular belief the Redneck Family Tree has many branches- it's a way of life, a state of mind, not a place. |

 and I'm hardly a big listener to country music.

I know what a "country boy" is. YMMV Is he from the Boston area ? ( I dont know ) Massachusetts is a pretty big state , with an awfully lot of rural areas . One doesn't necessarily need be from South of the Mason-Dixon to be a 'country-boy' ..........you cant automatically assume someone from New York , Michigan, or Massachusetts is going to dress/act like someone raised in Brooklyn , Detroit or Boston. As much as many Southerners would like to think so , they absolutely do not have a monopoly on 'rednecks' , 'hicks' , 'cowboys' or 'country-boys' . |

You know what I love?
How the "country" of ARFCOM is so quick to lay claim to what is and is not "country." Oh, he can't be country, he's from Massachusetts. Give. me. a. break. "Country" is a commercialized, marketed product - just the same as emo, hipster, that 'alternative' debacle back in the 90s, punk, and dozens of others. The only reason there's no redneck section in Hot Topic is because someone decided that it's more "country" to shop at Wal*Mart instead. This is why I'm not a country boy. I'm not a redneck. I refuse to ascribe to the lifestyle and the philosophy that I have to be purposefully ignorant. I love shooting. I love fishing and hunting. I love taking a fast vehicle down a muddy trail, I love drinking beer, and I love my family. Not crazy about NASCAR, but whatever. Despite my love for all most things "redneck," I am not one myself. Because it's a stupid label with no meaning. If you guys want to pick up that banner and wave it proudly, go for it. But the rest of us think you're pretty ridiculous for championing such a commercialized, absurd cause. |
