9 Reasons Why Country Music Is The Best Music

You may hate it, but you could just not be giving it the chance it deserves.

9 Reasons Why Country Music Is The Best Music
Country Music Association

Most people cringe at the thought of country music. People either complain that it is "too banjo-y" (whatever that means) or all the songs are the same. One, not all country songs are revolved around a banjo and two, no, not all country songs are about the same thing. I say as long as you have Carrie Underwood and Tim Migraw what could be better?

1. There is a song for every mood of every day

I could dance around to a song like House Party by Sam Hunt, I could get pumped and plan revenge on my ex by listening to Miranda Lambert, or if I wanna get into my emotions, I'll turn on Temporary Home by Carrie Underwood.

2. There is no better summer playlist

Country music describes summer better than anything else. We sing it loud and 'All Summer Long" - Kid Rock. Tan lines, the beach, sleeping in, drinking, dancing, and hanging with friends and family. It is always a good time when you're getting your "sun daze on" -Florida Georgia Line

3. You can't help but to sing along and dance to it

Even if you are doing it to make fun of you're still singing and dancing; you may just be making a fool of yourself. You know you like it, we can see that you actually are enjoying the song; you just don't want to admit it.

You know that song Body Like a Backroad? Yeah, the one by Sam Hunt that everyone is in LOVE with! Sam Hunt is a country artist...SURPRISE!

4. The songs can teach a lesson

Always Stay Humble and Kind -Tim Migraw (even if you do not like other people's taste in music)

God Bless the Broken Road -Rascal Flatts

Don't Blink - Kenny Chesney

5. When country music brings Jesus into the equation. . .

Country artists are bringing church up in your car. Something in the Water by Carrie Underwood (Carrie has several) New Again by Sarah Evans and Brad Paisley. I Saw God Today by George Strait. Three Wooden Crosses by Randy Travis. Need I say more? Just Google 'em, you'll find a lot more.

6. Oldies will always be goodies

I still go back and listen to older country songs and will back in love with them.I can't say that about most pop music...(besides Backstreet Boys; they will never die in my book)

7. Country boys

The accent, the tans, and the boots. Need I say more?

8. America loving

Country music is all about freedom and that red, white, and blue. Proud to be an American by Lee Greenwood. Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue by Toby Keith.

9. It isn't liked by everyone

I like that not everyone is obsessed with country like everyone is obsessed with Miley Cyrus. It makes me different. I love to jam in my car and dance like a goof in my room and at concerts. If you don't then that's okay I will just keep on dancing.

Yes, lots of country songs can be about trucks, beer, and girls, but that is all people focus on. At the end of the day country is about the heart and family. Anyone is welcome to country family, but if you do not want to join, then we'll be here singing about our Chicken Fried (Zac Brown Band) and our Big Green Tractors (Jason Alden) and God, Your Mama, and Me (Florida Georgia Line Ft. The Backstreet Boys).

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
