A Closer Look: Taylor Swift
Top 10 Benefits of "Next-Gen" Country Stations
American Twang recently reported on a new country station in St. Louis, MO playing a "Next-Gen" country format. Supposedly they're not playing such "old" stalwarts as George Strait and Reba and sticking to artists south of 50 during prime hours. While that sounds a like one of the final signs of the coming Apocalypse to FTM, we can actually see a few positives to this next gen approach (note: a couple of these actually are good things).
10. Opportunity to understand the genius of Uncle Kracker on a deeper level
09. Don't have to hear George Strait's new song "The Breath You Take"
08. No pesky emotions or originality to deal with
07. Easier to remember the 12 songs they play
06. You'll be able to relate to your kids' autotune-riddled music. Thanks Tim! (or is he too old for Next Gen?)
05. Don't have to hear the "character" (cracks, straining to reach high notes they used to hit with ease) in voices of decrepit singers
04. Brad Paisley will finally get his due as the elder statesman of country music
03. You'll always know what beer or truck brand is the most popular!
02. Recurrent Taylor Swift will desensitize your ears to high-pitched noises
01. Don't have to hear Reba's new song "Turn on the Radio"
