Eh, getting tired of seeing Led Zeppelin on there, and while I don't care for country-western music, Rascal Flatts' new song that's has a country, and non-country-ish version, and I like it. :F (the country one's not that bad, but music at the chorus is a bit... unneeded.)

But yeah, I like "What Hurts the Most" (though I'll admit it's the only song I like from them) and I'm tired of seeing Zeppelin. =O

Rascal Flatts most definetly. The beginning of "Me and My Gang" (the song) fascinates me to no end.

The fact that Rascal Flatts are currently winning right now makes my skin crawl. I like them, and have seen them live, but come on. Look who they're up against. Seriously.

I'm completely unaware of most country music, so I have no idea what the hell Rascal Flatts is. Thus, LZ.
can't find the sig from this set, so instead, you get a <3 .

Led Zeppelin, considering that "Stariway to Heaven" is considered by many to be the best song of all time. Seriously people... who can be so heartless? It should not be a tie right now!

"Many" being the key word. (though, "many" probably isn't that much, marginally)
