One of the great things about country music is the way the stars give back to the community. You may not hear about it, because it's not a grab for publicity. But I guarantee you, most of them are more than happy to give of themselves to help out, whatever the cause. Here's the perfect example.
This week, Chris Young has once again topped the charts with his latest single, ‘You.’ With a new No. 1 under his belt, Young’s chart-topping streak increases to five straight No. 1 hits, following the success of ‘Gettin’ You Home (The Black Dress Song),’ ‘The Man I Want to Be,’ ‘Voices’ and ‘Tomorrow.’
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it strange where country music shows up on the television nowadays? Back in the days before CMT and GAC it used to be near impossible to find country music on anything but the old syndicated country shows. (Porter Waggoner, Hee Haw, etc...) Now you see newcomers (like Chris Young) showing up on a variety of shows, even daytime television.
Everyone has a holiday tradition. Whether it's watching a certain program on t.v., having a certain type of meal, caroling, watching or playing football, making Christmas cookies, or even volunteering your time somewhere
A couple of weeks ago I wrote about crossover artists and country music. In my humble opinion, it's one thing to "crossover" to another musical genre, but it's another thing to actually "mix" genres.
