The threat of severe weather hangs over us this week. Today, Wednesday, then flooding possibilities for the rest of the week. Got my weather radio and bicycle helmet (many fatalities in severe weather are caused by blunt force...

”Pop” is a misnomer here, but this is the “hot 100” or popular songs chart (not “pop music” in the sense of Frank Sinatra or Perry Como, who have also graced this list). And what else goes with a Tex Ritter song but this?...

I’m on my way to where Sherman ended his destruction of Georgia back in 1864. While I have breakfast at Cracker Barrel I’ll give you another favorite from 1984. This is celebrating its 40th anniversary in a BIG way this year, so...

Hi, everyone. Sorry I haven’t been around much the last few days. I’ve been in a “funk,” I guess (the “feeling down” kind, not the “crank up the James Brown” kind). Between Buffett’s death, seeing a friend’s heart ripped out...

For two months I’ve looked at songs that were thought inappropriate for airplay because of their title (like this one) in light of 9/11, songs that were objected to by various groups, and songs that got an outright “NO WAY are we...

They say paybacks are a female dog, or that paybacks are the devil’s abode. Not today! Paybacks are funky! I pay you back for the way you endured the country song yesterday. Can you believe this song is 40 years old now?...

Happy Veterans Day to all of our soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines! And even you Coast Guard people. (Inter-service joking is allowed, of course.) Although the day is dreary here, I have another song with...

Oh, what a wonderful day. I take two retreats a year, one in the spring and one in the fall. I find them incredibly relaxing and refreshing, great for recharging my spiritual batteries. As for this countdown, nothing will...

A couple of countdowns ago JJ made a comment in one of the song discussions: What I think would be interesting would be a "Hits that were not Hits" countdown. I don’t know if he had this particular song in mind when he...

Howdy! Based on the weather report it looks like I’m putting these flowers to bed in the nick of time. Yep, they’re having a blizzard in the western U.S., and we’re looking and cold and possibly sn*wy weather next week....

You know what I realized? It’s been almost a year since I pulled the musical covers over you!
And so, for your dining and dancing pleasure — and maybe a surprise or two along the way — I present the NINTH installment of...

Here’s the halfway point at this shoot-em-up countdown featuring songs with “gun” in the title. Yesterday I said that half the performers here were in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and what do you know, here’s another hall of...

Last month it seemed as though we had the entire winter in one week. Now it seems like we’re having a full season of severe weather in one week. It was UGLY in Nashville. But the sun is out today, and it’s...

Well, this wasn’t intentional. I didn’t mean to have a bunch of war songs in the same day. But that’s how things go when I do more than one countdown at a time: occasionally there’ll be coincidences. This tends to go along well...

Oh, look, what a shock. It’s time to lock the door on the house countdown. And, much like yesterday’s “house” song or yesterday’s “free”song, this is no surprise at all. You’d only be shocked if this wasn’t number...
