Country music is such a hit-or-miss genre of music. With country, you either adore it and can be seen "Rolling your windows down and cruisin'" virtually every day or you would much rather get ran over by a pick up truck than indulge in this musical masterpiece. Regardless of which side of your preference there are many reasons country music isn't just for "tan-legged Juliets" and "redneck Romeos".
1. Lyrics
As opposed to popular genres such as pop and rap at the moment with their meaningless repetitive verses that just don't "work, work, work, work, work", country features meaningful storylines and catchy tunes that will make you want to head to the nearest honky tonk.
2. Attractive People
Don't get me wrong, there is an infinite amount of beautiful singers roaming the hip-hop music stage, but country features a wide variety of country girls with rock in' legs and sexy, pick-up truck driving, facial hair wearing, Cowboys. (Like have you seen Luke Bryan)
3. Positive Role Models
There are bad people roaming everywhere, but 99% of the time you won't find country folks with a criminal record of any sort. As a result country singers are positive role models to aspire to be like for children and just about everyone. Plus who doesn't love songs that promote women, rather than bashing them!
4. Emotions
Maybe half of you hate the feels, but everyone has feelings and country music causing a variety of emotions. Whether your sad over a breakup, you want to "dig your keys in to the side of his souped up four wheel drive", or you just need inspiration to "follow your arrow" country music appeals to every emotion.
5. Family Friendly
No curse words, meaning that the whole family can jam to some K frog in the minivan on the way to school. Plus stage coach can be a family event!
6. Relatable
As stated prior every song tells a story. This means, every song is relatable, with clearly stated story lines, and varying subjects. You could hear anything from a Disney character, to a truck, to a party, to cutting down a tree, all in one album!
7. Feel-Good Vibe
No matter how terrible awful your mood is, country music is "chicken noodle soup for the soul". Are you still crying over the death of fictional Derek Shepard? No problem, listening to these catchy, line-dance worthy songs, could lift up any mood.
8. American Pride
Who doesn't love a good old "American country love song". Or any American song for that matter. Country music has American pride written all over it...
