That's all I can do for bad Tim singles. He's actually one of the strongest singles artists of the last few decades and I think he may even be one of my favorite of all time, which is funny because while his album tracks are good to great I never really love any of his albums (exception being the amazing 'Set This Circus Down').

People hated "Still"?

I knew of many who thought it was OK, but not hate. I'll have to go back to that thread I guess. I thought it was one of Tim's best singles (especially the past few years).

Ok "hate" is a strong word, but a lot of people were mad it was chosen over "You Had To Be There" and I felt like it got a lot of flack for not being that song.

Ohhh, I see. :)

Personally I would have had "You Had To Be There" replace "Southern Voice" for the second single, but it's hard to argue that knowing "Southern Voice went to #1.

I liked "Still" (though it hasn't held up all that well for me), but there were a lot of songs I would have rather seen released over it. Most notably "You Had To Be There", but also "If I Died Today", "Good Girls", "Ghost Town Train" and "Mr. Whoever You Are".

[Deleted]

I remember Tim releasing "Still" but I haven't heard it in years, and I can't even recall how it goes. I don't hate it but it's just totally unmemorable to me and it didn't make my list.

I probably should've gone back and listened to all his 90's singles before making this, because there were a few others that I can't remember (hey, I was only 4 or 5...so sue me! ) and I'm sure if I listened to them I would remember, and there's a good chance that they could make my list. Basically the only singles I don't recall are any of the ones from the All I Want album (aside from "I Like It, I Love It"). I remember them a little bit but not well enough to place them in my list, and it's been ages since I've heard any of those songs. For whatever reason, that was the one Tim album that just never sunk into my memory.

Anyway, enough rambling. I ranked my top 30 favorite singles. And there were only 6 singles of his that I really, really disliked.

Top 30:

01 "Red Rag Top"
02 "Please Remember Me"
03 "I Like It, I Love It"
04 "Something Like That"
05 "Everywhere"
06 "Highway Don't Care" (featuring Taylor Swift & Keith Urban)
07 "For A Little While"
08 "Where The Green Grass Grows"
09 "Me And Tennessee" (featuring Gwyneth Paltrow)
10 "My Old Friend"
11 "Unbroken"
12 "Just To See You Smile"
13 "Felt Good On My Lips"
14 "Live Like You Were Dying"
15 "Grown Men Don't Cry"
16 "Down On The Farm"
17 "My Best Friend"
18 "Watch The Wind Blow By"
19 "Back When"
20 "Better Than I Used To Be"
21 "When The Stars Go Blue"
22 "Nothin' To Die For"
23 "My Next Thirty Years"
24 "It's Your Love" (featuring Faith Hill)
25 "Angry All The Time"
26 "Let It Go"
27 "My Little Girl"
28 "Real Good Man"
29 "She's My Kind Of Rain"
30 "One Of Those Nights"

Bottom 6:

01 "Lookin' For That Girl"
02 "Truck Yeah" (seriously, what's up with his last couple of lead singles?)
03 "Last Dollar (Fly Away)"
04 "Southern Voice"
05 "Southern Girl"
06 "It's A Business Doing Pleasure With You"

I like Tim a lot overall, but to me he's in the same camp with artists like Trace Adkins and Brooks & Dunn: capable of recording some excellent songs, but also capable of releasing some truly awful material.

HA! I can only imagine that me & McGraw share a very similar opinion of Mike Curb.

Excluding album tracks , as I'm a pretty big fan of McGraws work and always thought his best material by far, resided on his albums.

I like Tim a lot overall, but to me he's in the same camp with artists like Trace Adkins and Brooks & Dunn: capable of recording some excellent songs, but also capable of releasing some truly awful material.

Oh yeah , I couldn't agree more. There hasn't been a mainstream artist in the last ten or fifteen years that I can truthfully say I enjoyed their entire catalog. And none more frustrating when you factor in some of the excellent material McGraw has recorded over the years....and then left on their respective albums. The "Two Lanes of Freedom" era almost did me in as a fan since it was his first album that he wasn't under Mike Curb's thumb. How do you choose "Southern Girl" , "Truck Yeah" & even "Highway Don't Care" and leave "Number 37405" , Nashville Without You" , "Book Of John" & "Friend of a Friend" on the plate? He really could have made a statement with that album & he chose the easy road as he did through the majority of the Curb years. The good news is he seems to be on the right track with the current album though (minus that first single that I'm choosing to forget).
