What do you gain when you listen to a "traditional" country song?

Answer:A shoulder to cry on, a sympathetic ear, another person that is fed up with the "system", or a solution to your problem. The new country music artists of today can't make that connection with their fans like the artist of yesterday. The Possum, The Voice, Merle, etc.etc. The list goes on and on and on.

To the younger crowd out there put my theory to the test!! Name any emotion you are feeling right now. And I will find you a "traditional country song" that will help you get through that emotion. Whether you lost your first love, you are mad at your boss, or pissed off at life in general; I have a song and an artist you will fall in love with. Just be open minded listen to the words; listen past the "twang" of the singers voice and the sounds of strange instruments you probably never heard of. Clear your mind and listen to the message of the song.
