Lonestar's debut week is looking to be around 35-40k. One crappy, mass-produced, insulting-to-country, vomit-inducing boy band to fall from popularity... and hopefully soon fall off of every Playlist in the country (ok... I can dream right). Ever since I'm Amazed, this group has sucked it up big time, with their only real group of fans being preteen girls and soccer moms who want safe music for their kids to listen to. (I guess they've all jumped ship to Rascal Flatts).
PLEASE RADIO!!, PLEASE DROP 'YOU'RE LIKE COMING HOME' off your playlists. I know that you've wanted to for a long time but couldn't because of their perceived popularity, well NO MORE because they suck.
Ok, I'm done ranting but I seriously hate this group's sound and I think most people here would agree that it is an insult to country music.

First of all it's not I'm Amazed, it's just Amazed and it was a gigantic song for those guys. Second I am sure radio is watching the post on this board and will oblige to your request to pull this song as quickly as their ersearch numbers from Guatemala come in. This song is very popular in the Guatemalan target group of 18- 39 year old females. This is a great album and will have at least two number one singles if not more. Have you heard the album or are you just blowing smoke foe no reason.If this is one of your prayers you sure do have an easy life. Like I have stated many times on this board I respect everyone's opinion but yours is terrible. Go back to listening to your Mearl Haggard and Willie Nelson and leave the new music to people who know what they are talking about. Let me guess, you love the new Faith Hill album. It's almost as country as this new Lonestar album so you just might like it if you give it a chance.

Ok, I'm done ranting but I seriously hate this group's sound and I think most people here would agree that it is an insult to country music. Most popular country music has always been "an insult to country music" in the sense I think you mean it. So it has been, so it is now, so it shall always be. Save your prayers for something important, and meanwhile in the privacy of your home or car, enjoy the music of Patty Loveless, Lee Ann Womack, Alison Krauss, Clint Black, Dwight Yoakam, et al. who still record, who still release great music, and who aren't ever going to post sales and chart numbers the way Kenny and the others do. Now if the good music were unavailable to us, I'd agree with you. But we can still find it. And Lonestar isn't stopping you from buying it. And when Lonestar does go away, they'll be replaced by someone equally bad, so it does no good to worry about them. The consumers of Lonestar aren't going to switch to Patty Loveless when Richie and the boys disappear. And Bamafan, that's "Merle."
