Went with EYB, Miranda, and Lee for the first three votes. But it came down to either Parmalee, Joel, or Homer Hart for the fourth. I decided on Homer Hart to show some love for the underdog. Great imagery in that song. Not the best of vocals, as some of it got drowned out by some production but a very good song nevertheless. I also like the new Gloriana as well but didn't vote for them this time around.

Didnt finish my post, I listened and watched the New Video from Stevie Lee Woods and the song has a positive message that crosses all age barriers. It is delivered well By Stevie and by mid way through you find yourself singing along. Music News Nashville, Atlanta, Chicago, New York and on have featured this song and video in numerous articles recently. I like it.

Automatic is the clear winner here. Gloriana picks up a vote from me as well, but I can't be bothered with the rest.

"Dust", "Automatic", and "I Don't Dance" were easy ones for me.

Came down to Parmalee vs Crouse for the last one. Went with Crouse by a small margin.

EYB, Miranda, Lee, and Parmalee for me.

Another Thought after reviewing all the music and being in the music industry for 30 plus years , Miranda Lamberts Automatic, is a great tune and Kudos on the production and delivery, my point with the Stevie Lee Woods song was it Great Song delivered Well and different than the every day cookie cutter coming out these days. So many new artists trying to be the Next Miranda Lambert sound alike, or George Strait Sound Alike, we need individualists so when you turn on the radio you know who it is and I think Stevie Lees record fit that bill. Thanks
