Sorry Kevin. BUT, I did NOT say it was a "terrible" song. In fact, it is a really good song. For that genre'. I just personally don't relate to those songs. It is a lot like the Edmund Fitzgerald. That was a great song too. But, I didn't relate to it.
And no, I don't like the mindless riff driven tunes either. I didn't particularly care for Sam Hunt's, "Break up in a small town". I didn't relate to it's story, and especially NOT to it's groove. MOST of today's country songs I don't particularly care for, but, I posted the link to show "country writers" where that market keeps going towards. If you want to write folk or Americana, then "Arizona" might be a great song to model your efforts after.
