After reading the above comments, I’ll have to at least pick up one of his greatest hits collections.

Wed, 05 Aug 2009 03:45:04 +0000 http://www.countryuniverse.net/?p=12329#comment-97026 “Bigger Than The Beatles” is my favorite of his novelty songs. “It’s Hard To Be Me” is another good one from his Twice Upon A Time album. Always liked “This Is Your Brain” too.

I also forgot to add “So Help Me Girl” to my previous list.

And I heartily agree…

Down in A Ditch
Junior’s in Love
Tougher than Nails
Show Me A Woman
My Redneck of the Woods
My Give a Damn’s Busted
It’s Hard to Be Me
Call Me John Doe
Something I Do for Me

I think “Junior’s in Love” is my favorite of the funny songs. Attempted assault by nail gun is a subject that should be covered more often. I always kind of felt sorry for Joe, because I bet he gets tired of singing those goofy songs over and over, but as was mentioned his ballads never really caught on.

I’m looking forward to his bluegrass album, too.

I went to his concert three or four months ago, and it was really great–he did a cool section where he imitated other singers, which ties in with your comment on his early phrasings.

I’d have to go with “Something I Do For Me” and “So Help Me Girl” as my top picks.
