I remember growing up listening to my older sister explain to me why country music was so much better than other genres of music. She told me that country music told a story, that the words were the most important parts of the song. It's something that has always stuck with me, and I've realized that there is a country song for every emotion. Here's a list of 25 country songs you need to have in your music library:

1. American Love Song by Jake Owen

This is the perfect summer song! It's hard to listen and not tap along to the beat and sing along. I'm positive it'll even bring back some wonderful memories, too!

2. H.O.L.Y. by Florida Georgia Line

Such a sweet song the boys wrote about their wives! It's a good reminder of what love should feel like!

3. 21 Summer by Brothers Osbourne

A song that basically reinforces the idea that once you love someone you never stop loving them.

Super cute song about the (possible) start of a new romance. Who doesn't love that?
