HERE'S WHAT I THINK

Classic Country is Better Than Rock

It has more of a down to earth sound and southern drawl to it, and the guitars don't scream at you. Some kinds of rock sounds o.k., but classic country (not that new stuff that isn't even country), is BEST!!!

YOUR TURN! 

Is classic country better than rock?

Loading Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Yes, you're right!

Spike Jones says:

I grew up in the 60's and 70's and hated country! Now i look for the classic stuff. Really enjoying Conway and Loretta these days. It reminds me of when I was a kid because those were the sounds I remember the most. My Mom's music. Now that she's gone I find new meaning in the music.

kansasww says:

With out country music rock wouldn't be here !

TheWhistler says:

Country rocks!

BevsPaper says:

Classic country is the best. As for the comment about it having no rythym .... where do ya think the term "foot stompin' music" came from?

Countryman says:

The Highway Men was, is, and always will be better than KISS.

Lori_Lee-Ray says:

if it's classic southern rock, no! If it's the new headbanger stuff.. I'll take country.

kidzrule94 says:

Heck NO! Rock is an always will be better. Many new bands are coming from rock. just check out Darmata theyre awsme! go to http://www.squidoo.com/dramata to hear the awsomeness!

kiwisoutback says:

Mmm...no. I've never been able to stomach country of any sort. I agree with FlashAllen, Rock N Roll Ain't Noise Pollution!

Carol says:

Country music (old or new) drives me crazy. I can't stand the drawl, the twang, the nasal voices, the gloomy topics...give me rock any day.

FlashAllen says:

ARE YOU CRAZY? Rock is soooooooooo much better than country and rock never faileth. And for those about to rock WE SALUTE YOU.

:( says:

NOT TRUE!!!
Rock has so much more life and meaning!!!
You can't beat The Beatles now can you?!!!
Country may tell good stories, but it has no rhythm to it!!!

riff999 says:

It's gotta be rock and roll music if you want to dance with me.

fefe says:

I don't listen to a lot of classic country.

LouVozza says:

Classic country is great, but I still play Gimme Shelter by the Rolling Stones to wake me up in the morning.

says:

That's what is great about this country, we can all have our own opinions. While I respect yours, I must disagree. I'm definitely NOT a country music buff! You're right that the guitars don't scream at you in Classic Country! But I love screaming guitars, bangin' drums, full-on bass and a loud obnoxiously wonderful vocalist! We all have our own music interest. If yours is Classic Country, all the power to you! Rock on!

I love classic country. What I can't stand is country music that's been commercialized to the point where it bears no resemblance to what it originally was, which is folk music from England and Ireland that gradually developed into something distinctly American.

Hey~Rock fans. I don't exclusively like classic country. I do like some rock that I listened to in the 70's and 80's, and now thanks to my teenaged boys, I listen to more of it. Bret Michaels song on Poisons newest album, "I Never Cry" I love! I like some Alice Cooper,Rod Stewart,CCR, and Bon Jovi's "Miracle" and "Bang A Drum", and Guns N' Roses "Knocking On Heavens Door". I like classical and walztes,too. So, you see, I like a variety.
