Thanks Again John Cougar for Another Crappy Song

"Our Country" is a real gem. Really takes the whole cliche and reworks it in insightful and meaningful ways. I mean....
"From the east coast
To the west coast
Down the Dixie Highway
Back home
This is our country"
Wow. I had never thought of it that way.
Again, thanks JC. You've grown.

Really? You sold a song to John Cougar? If so, wow. You must be rolling in some serious bank.

I believe he said "took one of our songs", not 'bought'.

Right. The old, "He has one of our songs "on hold" thing. I've heard that one before. Yeeeuuup.

considering the source, i'd be willing to believe this........
as my 10-year-old is fond of saying: "don't dip in the Kool-Aid if you don't know the flavor"...

And this adresses my implication in what way, exactly?

I know the source. Cougar has one of the songs. He's sold more than one song to more than one big-name artist. And no that wouldn't make him rich. Unfortunately, that's not exactly how it works. Typically a modest fee upfront and modest songwriter royalties from there on out.
And I hate that stupid song!! The American listening public is retarded.

I stick by what I said. This song is crap, big dollars or not. But this is just my opinion.
As far as the rest, PM's were sent. Positions clarified. We'll see....

i think you can safely assume that most everyone here is going to agree with that part!
