What you didn't like that soapy song from the early 70s? He was also cordoned off from ever making music again.

I have not googled. But I seem to recall that this particular song was penned by none other than Jimmy Dean, who is now a sausage broker. Correct?

What is missing from this list is Suzanne Vega--Tom's Diner, Luka, The Queen and the Soldier.

And this doesn't seem like a Dixie Chicks crowd, but Goodbye Earl should be on this list.

And I didn't realize I Hung My Head was Johnny Cash. I only know the Sting version. Interesting. I'm going to search for the Cash one.

The original was better. I never could get used to a pampered Brit singing those lyrics.

Dixie Chunks are not favored here.

hmm, it seems that Sting was the original, and Johnny Cash covered it later.

I like a pampered Brit, but I still want to hear the other.
