    It’s country music, not Mozart, they are all pretty much the same anyway. It’s formulaic and works with a group of people who don’t want innovation or change.

      A dirt road A cold beer A blue jeans A red pickup A rural noun, simple adjective

      No shoes No shirt No Jews You didn’t hear that Sort of a mental typo

      I walk and talk like a field hand But the boots I’m wearing cost three grand I write songs about riding tractors From the comfort of a private jet

      I could sing in Mandarin You’d still know I’m pandering Hunting deer, chasing trout A Bud Light with the logo facing out

      Hear that subtle mandolin That’s textbook pandering I own a private ranch that I rarely use I don’t like dirt

      [Spoken:] One verse, one chorus in the bag Now it’s time to talk to the ladies I am hoping my Southern charm offsets all these rape-y vibes I’m putting out

      Good girl In a straw hat With her arms out in a corn field That is a scarecrow Thought it was a human woman, sorry

      A cold night A cold beer A cold jeans Strike that last one

      I’m wanting you I hope you’re feeling me Subtextually

      We go to bed, you doze off So I take your country girl clothes off I put my hands on your body It feels like hay, It’s a fucking scarecrow again

      Like Mike’s Evander-ing Fuck your ears, I’m pandering I write songs for the people who do Jobs in the towns that I’d never move to

      Legalize gerrymandering Tolerate my pandering You got a beautiful mouth I got a beautiful

      You dumb motherfuckers want a key change?

      Thematically meandering Emphatically pandering I got a tight grip on my demo’s balls Say the word “truck”, they jizz in their overalls

      You don’t know what land you’re in I’m in the land of pandering And I’ll be upfront I do what I do 'cause I’m a total fucking cunt-ry boy

      I’m a Mozart hater and have to say Mozart is also very formulaic. Fuck the classical era of classic music, it’s boring as hell

        thats a weird take. you have consider things in the time they were written which really pushed the envelope for the 1780s. Im still giving you an upvote cause you specified the classical era of classical music, I think my favorite symphonies were written post 1900

          I am a classical (non-classic classical) music enjoyer, especially of the late romantic and modern periods. The classic period is just boring on account of being formulaic, and imho Mozarts music sounds incredible boring, even for classic standards. Maybe I’m also biased because one of my neighbours plays Mozart all day every day with an open window and it’s slowly driving me insane

            I can understand being burned out if something is overplayed, but I would question your sanity if you find a good performance of Canzonetta sull’aria to be boring.

        Get back to us in 400 years and see how many students in Conservatories are studying Garth Brooks.

      Its a genre just like most others. They are all very similar thats why they are in the same genre.

      Country is about beer, dirt roads and memories.

      Rap is about sex and money

      Pop is about sex relationships and breakups.

      Punk rock is about breakups and depression.

      Sure there are outliers but its not like country is the only genre with very similar music.

        Metal is about sex, relationships, breakups, depression, addiction, war, religion, politics, freedom, dragons, and dwarves.
