Dont Rush is awesome..swooney snuggle country. Made my night. Take note if they ask...is it country.is it rock ...take time to listen to, Don`t Rush , sung by Kelly Clarkson and the unreal Vince Gill. You dont need harsh lights extreme loud band so you cannot hear the lyrics....just a thought..

There is nothing COUNTRY about the CMA awards. Everyone who perforned on that show doesn't know what COUNTRY is about. Why is country radio playing this junk?
Where was George Strait,, Allan Jackson and the real COUNTRY singers.
