Post subject: | Country Music Deal? |
what's up karaoke dudes and dudessess! what do you think about this deal? the songs aren't all that great maybe but 20 bucks for 99 songs seems pretty good to pump up my songlist. I really need more cowbell, I mean, country music. I know chartbuster has good country, so maybe this is pretty good? looking for opinions here since I am not a country singer usually (except for jerry reed). thanks - jim [glow=orange]http://www.karaokewh.com/item_details.cfm?ProdID=10219&tracking=46[/glow] [glow=seagreen]http://www.karaokewh.com/item_details.cfm?ProdID=10218&tracking=46[/glow] |

no, I just want to know if those two lists are any good (the glowing ones). I already know SC is good. Thank you though. |

It's decent-quality stuff, but only about 5-8 of these songs are real likely to be sung, IMHO. Unless you already have a bunch of country, I would pass and spend it on 1) an artst disk (i.e. Toby Keith, Sugarland, George Strait) or 2) a more recent country compilation like CB5080 ($33 or so). |

I am a country fan and since they are just up the road I have a lot of Chartebuster. These collections have very few song titles I recognize. At that price you might find it worth it if there are just a dozen or songs you really want. But I don't see much there. Unless some of these are must have songs for you I think I would pass.

I wasn't even counting Margaritaville -- the Alan Jackson version -- in my 5-8. (I assume Ham has Margaritaville already -- it is in any decent "foundation" set). We, in our very country area, get some traffic on: 7 Red Dirt Road Brooks & Dunn 14 The Good Stuff Kenny Chesney 20 Walk A Little Straighter Billy Currington 38 Drive (For Daddy Gene) Alan Jackson 65 Beer For My Horses Toby Keith and Willie Nelson 67 It's Hard To Kiss The Lips At Night That Chew Your @%! Out All Da Notorious Cherry Bombs feat. Rodney Crowell & Vince Gill 76 Some Beach Blake Shelton None of these are sung a lot, though. I do: 79 Tell Me Something Bad About Tulsa George Strait 91 The Chain Of Love Clay Walker But have never heard anyone else do them. |

I look at the top 5 songs on the country charts each quarter and buy those. Typically the rest will never end up getting played. I gave up on purchasing Country sets as they are full of songs that never make it to the charts. My suggestion is ask your customers that sing country what they want to see in the books and purchase either on Custom CDG or on discs that have other songs that would be popular with them also. You can waste a ton of money on buying what you think they want, but asking produces results on what they really want. I also keep a log of song requests that I don't have and purchase them if they check out to be in the top 10 on the charts. Otherwise I don't buy it. |

I don't see a lot of songs on these sets that people have sung or requested at my shows. But Im like you I have a hard time picking out country disc. |

Some Country songs that get sung here are: I Love This Bar Who's Your Daddy Save a Horse Ride a Cowboy Folsom Prison Forever And Ever Amen Where I come From Don't Rock The Jukebox Amarillo By Morning Chatahoochee(yuk, yuk, yuk) A Long Way To Richmond All My Exes Live In Texas Redneck Woman Before He Cheats Friends In Low Places The Thunder Rolls There are more, mostly older country songs that a lot of people here like which I can't remember right now. If I think of them I'll add them to the list. |

Quote: I wasn't even counting Margaritaville -- the Alan Jackson version -- in my 5-8. (I assume Ham has Margaritaville already -- it is in any decent "foundation" set). WE have a young crowd now Sat I did It Dont Hurt Anymore, Letters Have NO arms Did not sing every rotation but when I sang the audience was listening and when I got done the energy, noise and happiness in the crowd was worth setting up and tearing down..

Jim You know full-well about "opinions". In one person's opinion, Amarillo By Morning is a poplular karaoke country song. I get lot's of kudos when I do Amarillo..., but I have never heard anyone but myself do it in the 10 years I've been out singing karaoke. I thank you for the "heads-up"; as for me, I'll be getting both packs! Best regards PS Let's not forget about varying opinions regarding the Backstage Billy Joel disc |
