Top 5 on Friday from the Music Memoirs
Top 5 "Country" or "Alt-Country" songs
Walkin' After Midnight - Patsy Cline.
No list of country songs is complete without Patsy in it.
The Last Cowboy Song - The Highwaymen
The outlaw country supergroup - Johnny Cash, Kris Kristopherson, Willie Nelson & Waylon Jennings. Like Patsy, no country list is complete without Johnny Cash.
Number - Cross Canadian Ragweed.
Alt country at it's finest, and the song that introduced me to the genre, and the band.
Rolling (The Ballad of Big and Rich)- Big and Rich
Upbeat, energetic, and has a rap (thanks to Cowboy Troy) - I love the music mafia trying to break down barriers of genre.
I Believe in You - Don Williams
One of the best balladeers in country.
This is a toughie to keep to five, I want to mention Antsy McClain, Mickey and the Motorcars, Brad Paisley (man can that guy play guitar), Oak Ridge Boys, Statlers, Loretta Lynne ect ect ect..

Oh I love that Patsy song too. Great list :)
Oh, you've gone deep here....great music. (Well, I'm not into Big & Rich, but the old stuff is awesome.)
Walking After Midnight almost beat out Crazy on our list.
Excellent choices.
Ragweed and the Highwaymen. Enough said. Great list!
