The Past Poop of Country Music: June 30, 2008
A ratings system based on poop emojis seems right in our wheelhouse, so
here you go. This is the Mediabase Top 20 country songs from the week Farce the Music came online, June 30, 2008.
Poop is bad. Not-Poop is good. The potential worst rating is 5 poop emojis. The potential best is 5 not-poop emojis. Here's Trailer's opinion of each song. Enjoy! (...?)
The Past Poop Rating of this Mediabase Top 20 is 1 POOP EMOJI (or -1) overall. The best song was Kenny Chesney's "Better as a Memory." The worst was Lost Trailers' "Holler Back," which was a precursor to bro-country. Please read Country Perspective's Current Pulse for a different perspective, more class, and better insight.
Chart from Country Aircheck / Mediabase.

Tryin' to think of something nice to say about Luke Bryan...

FTM's Favorite Albums of 2014: Very Honorable Mentions
Being mentioned here while still outside the top 50 may seem like a slight to these albums, but in a year I listened to 200+ new albums and sampled countless others, these were all worthy of hours of play each. Also, it was a consistently strong year for music (if not as full of stone cold classics as some) so there was a lot of good stuff to choose from. This is just one guy's opinion (next year FTM will likely begin having a composite list from our 3 contributors plus me), so sometimes it's not about actual quality of an album, but how it affected me on an emotional, critical and intellectual level. These are all very strong releases.
Very Honorable Mentions (in no particular order):

If _____ Wrote a Christmas Song...
If Cole Swindell wrote a Christmas song…
You're my only Christmas wish
With lips like cherry shine
In my truck bed with bows and twine
That's how I made you mine
You're my only Christmas wish
With lips like cherry shine
In my truck bed with bows and twine
That's how I made you mine
If Run the Jewels wrote a Christmas song…
Shut the f**k up and lend me your ear
F**kboys know it's that time of year
Fat motherf**ker coming down the chimney
Run them jewels Santa, take that sack home empty
Shut the f**k up and lend me your ear
F**kboys know it's that time of year
Fat motherf**ker coming down the chimney
Run them jewels Santa, take that sack home empty
If Lorde wrote a Christmas song…
I'm kind of over getting told to rock around the Christmas tree, so there
So all the eggnog got spilled there on the gifts but it wasn't my fault

If Chris Tompkins wrote a Christmas song…
I just got through delivering toys all over the world
X-box Ones and Frozen dolls for all the bros and girls
Fireball and cookies for me, the reindeer know the way
I'm getting drunk in a sleigh
If Sturgill Simpson wrote a Christmas song…
Poinsettias swirling round and round
Green and red on thread on thread
Walk that line to Santa's lap
And he whispers "Sonny, it's all crap."

More Saturday Night Music: Travis Meadows
If you don't know of Travis Meadows, now's the time to meet him. He's a Mississippi-born songwriter with an amazing story. He writes killer tunes about real life. He's currently experiencing quite a year for a writer - the title track on Dierks Bentley's newest album, Jake Owen's new single, and one of the stronger tunes on Eric Church's recent album. Here's "Learning to Live Alone."
