As long as Johnny Cash is considered Country Music, it’s not possible to “hate country music” anyway.
I’ve never gotten the appeal of Johnny Cash. I guess I’m just not one for Texican yeehaw mumblecore.
The fact that you pinned Johnny Cash down to some made-up and obviously very narrow genre shows you really don’t know anything about Johnny Cash.
You don’t sing duets with everyone from Bob Dylan to Tom Petty if you stick to a very narrow music genre.
I’ve heard enough Johnny Cash to know I don’t want to hear anymore, or take any recommendations from his fans.
Have you? Because you described him in a way that sounds like you’ve only heard one or two songs he sang.
Probably closer to eight or ten. And that is absolutely enough.
I have my doubts considering how you describe his music. Would you call his cover of Nirvana’s Hurt “Texican yeehaw mumblecore?”
I couldn’t give the first two half-flaccid thrusts of a reluctant pity fuck.
Bo Burnham said it brilliantly:
I think some of the greatest song writers of all time are country artists: Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, you know? And if you’re writing honestly, that is art! And I would never bash that! Um, the problem is, with a lot of modern country music, wha- what is called “Stadium Country Music” Sort of Keith Urban Brand of Country music is that it is not honest, it is the exact opposite of honest
And then he launched into one of the best comedy songs of all time illustrating it perfectly 💪❤️
