Wednesdays here now have a new feature that will run for the foreseeable future, The Forgotten Jukebox Series.  I will spotlight a big hit song - post 1980 - that you just don't hear anywhere anymore.  All of these songs were very popular at the time, in fact most were number ones, and they all are from great artists that you know and love.  Many times we still play a ton of songs from these stars, but for some reason these songs over time have fallen through the Country Music Cracks pretty much everywhere, and have sadly been lost.  But for now, they have a new and safe home in my basement in My Forgotten Jukebox.

This is not a countdown and there is no order, rhyme or reason, just toss a quarter in and punch in some numbers - every song it great!

Cowboys Like Us  -  George Strait  -  2003  -  (Album Honkytonkville)

One of my favorite Strait songs that you just don't hear much anymore.  Maybe it's because this is one of the few songs from him that did NOT go number one.  It stalled out at number two!  This song makes you happy as it talks about the care free feeling being on the open road with friends. This song was a bit different for Strait as it was a much bigger and fuller and complete sound than many of his staples.  But one thing that is always true, his vocals do not get lost here and are incredible yet again.  This song is 3 and half minutes of feel good.
