Oh yeah, the whole thing was extremely out of touch but if I suspend my disbelief, I can understand why one would think it was a good song choice

Johnny Cash was a big Jesus guy though

True, and it’s demonstrably bad for attention spans and mental health. However, banning it outright (especially in this way politically) also feels bad. In these tenuous economic times, it also benefitted a lot of people. And it was a powerful tool for community building. So idk what to think atm

Actually, I saw nothing but comments and videos from people saying how much they’ll miss the Americans. We are nothing if not entertaining

I wasn’t super into it until college either! I’ve gone back and listened through to a bunch of albums in full that in high school I only knew a few songs from

Timely post as I’m rewatching Ken Burns’ Country Music
