All of them made it into at least the top ten. It also sems like a lot of the newer country acts are going back to more of a traditional country sound, not as simple musically as it was, just in general feel. I'm glad you understand about the investment, I knew you would. The old saying about nothing ventured nothing gained is very true. I'll let you know what happens if I can get it to Josh Turner. Thanks again for your kind words.


I remember the "Three Wooden Crosses" song. And couldn't help also remembering how when it got to the chorus of the song,the melody, the sound, the feel, the beat, made it seem like he was happy everyone was dead smile

Just goes to show how there's all these rules, and then in two seconds there ignored.

Haven't seen Christian Country in top hot 100 lately. But i know what your saying and it's still out there and marketable fr sure.

I only listen to whatever the top hits are that are played on the radio and more so TV video's. I couldn't and wouldn't buy any of it so I really have to listen to what they play. Just like EVERYONE else. Unless your in the know about a particular artist or band then you take what THEY feed you. Don't forget in all this too that Record labels, sponsors & media make HITS all by themselves too. It is NOT always well you gotta have the SONG first.

Sorry stepped out of character again... smile

Thanks!
Peace Mike
