This is rediculous, the only REAL country singers in this are Dolly, Loretta, and George Jones. The rest are posers or living off their family name. Their lyrics suck, and they lack talent and ability. Now all they are doing is ripping off the Great classic rock sound. It is NOT country! Even Johnny Cash said that all these people do is put a cowboy hat on and call themselves country. Give me a break.

you have to admit its a good song though!

Good but they left out Johnny Cash, George Strait, Chris LuDoux, and Garth Brooks. Those guys are the real contemporary artist. Yes I know multiple of them are no longer with us, but the brought us into the music we now call country. If it weren't for them there would be no Keith Urban, Tim McGraw, Trace Adkins, etc... not that I'm opposed them I just think that they could have found spot for them on this list.

Seriously...where is Chris LeDoux?!? if he heard some of the songs placed on this list he would roll over in his grave!!!

If you're going to post something like this, at least get the lyrics correct.
