Each year Sarah and I pick our Top Five Country Songs for the year. And this year is no exception!
Here are my Top Five - And why!
#1 - Everything I Love - Morgan Wallen
I know he's a polarizing artist and some of his recent songs have missed with me. But this is a gem. With a Cash
/ Waylon kind of driving under beat and a slick lyric line, this is as stone cold country as it gets right now.
#2 - Heart Like A Truck - Lainey Wilson
Another great year for her, and if she records music until she's 90, this is the song that cut through, and will be her
calling card. Just a great country song full of nuances mixing styles and genres and her unique voice.
#3 - Tucson Too Late - Jordan Davis
This reminds me of an era gone by. This is a great song, that puts a person, in a place, in a time. This is very visual
and is very relatable in every regard. Jordan Davis last few songs have all been exceptional.
#4 - Gold - Dierks Bentley
He's always great, but when Dierks gets the right song, with the right rhythm, I feel it's mandatory listening.
#5 - Tennessee Orange - Megan Maroney
I loved this song the first time I heard it. Country, visual, honest, from the heart, positive and makes you feel good.
