Prince passes away in Minneapolis

[user4]

Well, music HAS passed me by... even what is now labeled "country"..

I listen to country and Im amazed at how base the lyrics have become over the last 20 years... Every other song is about being drunk and stupid. Sure there were always songs like that but it just seems to be devolving.

It has lyrics???

Indeed. It involves

a girl who done me wrong
my pick-up truck
my dog, Blue
whiskey
a bar fight
and . . .
Murka!

Everybody sing along with Kenny Chesney....

"She thinks my tractor's sexy......."

I'll take your word for it as it does sound familiar but watching that video would be the first time I ever understood the lyrics. That was tense.

C'mon, Renee Zellweger thought his tractor was sexy.. for about four months..

and he's sold 2.3 MILLION downloads since he died!! You can smell the greed among his presumptive heirs.

Very sad and strange that somebody who fought so vigorously for control of his creations would reach his 50s and still totally do nothing about controlling them after his death.
