My name is Nate, and I like country music. It feels so much better to get that out in the open. I have been fighting it for quite some time, but I live in a family that likes country music and every time we get in the car the radio is set to a country music station so I have been hearing a lot of it. Not exactly sure how it started, but I have been relentlessly worn down to the point to where I had to give into the music.
Now please allow me to state this disclaimer: I do NOT like honky-tonk or bluegrass music. I would rather bang my head against the corner of a brick building than listen to some honky tonk. Country music has come a long way since I was a kid, and I find myself enjoying the newer contemporary stuff. I still prefer good ‘ole rock ‘n roll, but my musical taste has been broadened.
I actually downloaded some county songs a couple days ago. The first one I downloaded was “Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue” by Toby Keith. I am a red-blooded American and I love the patriotism that comes through this song. While I don’t personally agree with his choice of words when he names a part of the body that we are going to put our boot, I agree with the concept 100%. I get goose bumps every time I listen to it. Here’s the video:
The second one I downloaded was “It’s America” by Rodney Atkins.” Again, a very patriotic song. Here’s the video for this one:
The third one I downloaded was “Cleaning This Gun” by Rodney Atkins. It’s about a guy who is cleaning his gun while talking with his daughter’s new boyfriend to “put the fear of God” in him. Having two teenage daughters myself, I appreciate this and plan on doing the same thing or something very similar. 
So boys, be warned.
That’s enough of my country music confessions for now. I feel free now that you know. I no longer have to keep the volume turned down while listening to some country or quickly switch the channel when someone comes around.
