Country music is a hit or miss for most people. They either love it or they hate it. Growing up in the south means I listened to it more than anything else. I grew up listening to Kenny Chesney, Faith Hill, Toby Keith and so many more.
The thing I love most about the genre of country music is how these artists tell stories through their songs. Whether the story be able finding love, headed off to war or about kickin' back at the beach, it's so interesting to see how these artists translate everyday life into music.
For those country fans that miss the 2000s country songs as much as I do, here's a list of 25 songs you need to add to your playlist right now!
