Great list, but here are a few I think were robbed.

Brad Paisley- Letter To Me
Martina McBride- Concrete Angel
Martina McBride- A Broken Wing
Craig Morgan- Almost Home
Taylor Swift- Change
Lee Ann Womack- I Hope You Dance

Other than that, it was awesome.

I’m as big a Chicks fan as anyone, but Johnny Cash’s “Hurt” was the song of the decade for myself. No ifs, ands, or buts about it.

In addition to Leeann’s radio stat, all but two of the tracks came from albums that at least sold gold. Sounds like you’re a bit out of touch with the typical country fan. (As is country radio, too much of the time!)

And out of touch with the typical country fan.

Now there’s a badge of honor if ever there was one.

Allan,

I have not tallied the entries on the other sections of this feature, but this particular run has 20 songs on it and 15 of them reached the top 15 on the charts.

These “anti-mainstream” lists make me laugh.

Music does NOT have to achieve chart success to be great, but your list takes it to a Grammy “We’re so cool for picking this obscure song” level.

Congrats, you’re cool. And out of touch with the typical country fan.

@Johnny Cash Junkie: Personally, I think Long Time Gone is a great song! Hurt is overrated. I never cared for the original and I don’t really care for the Johnny Cash cover. He’s had plenty of better songs
