According to the all-knowing orb of iPod, my country song for the day is "What Do I Care" by Johnny Cash.
Don't you have an elsewhere to be?

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
What's your country song of the day?
Do we have to pick just one? I could narrow it to 6:
Family tradition, Hank Williams Jr.
Not ready to make nice, Dixie Chicks .
Here you come again, Dolly Parton
Teach me about love, Lyle Lovett
House Rules, Kane
Drunken Angel, Lucinda Williams

Michael Fracasso, Love & Trust (the entire album). Fracasso has a beautiful high lonesome sound, and there's some very moving, beautiful trcks on this album. Specifically Wake Up George and a song about the Jordan River, whose title I misforget.

My indie song of the day appears to be either "Elevate Me Later" by Pavement, an all-time fave rave I find well-nigh irresistible to singing/shouting/declaiming along with ("I'd like to check out your public protests!/Why you're complaining, Tah!"), or "X-mas Curtain" by My Morning Jacket, which I also like a lot.

Sure!
I've been working on this complicated document all week and I can't listen to music while I'm having to think this hard. it sucks.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Does "Muleskinner Blues" by The Fendermen count?
"Good mornin' Cap'tin. Do you need another muleskinner? Eeeheeheeeheeehawww..."
Sure!
My country song of every day, pretty much all day since the Kennedy Center Awards, including the moment I read your post: Jolene, by Dolly Parton.
Are you familiar with Dolly's "Bargain Store"? It's similar to "Jolene" in that they both have beautiful, old english folk style melodies. Fairport could've done a great album of Dolly covers.

That does suck. I always turn mine off if I have to do real research, but that doesn't seem to be happening a lot lately.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Are you familiar with Dolly's "Bargain Store"?
No, but I'll check it out tonight!
