I love both of these! I am jamming to "Hole In A Bottle" so hardcore right now lol. Gonna vote for it. But "Power of Positive Drinkin'" is a total jam too! Chris Janson is coming to my local fair this summer, and it's literally under 5 minutes from my house. I might just go if I'm free. I need to listen to more of his music... like I said, love this one... and "Buy Me A Boat" grew on me significantly as well. Didn't like his voice at first but it's becoming more appealing to me.

Janson, although its a little bit of a tough call. I think "Hole in a Bottle" is more cleverly written, with reference to holes in other things (boots, jeans, heart, etc) whereas POPD leans a little too heavily on songs from the past (Jerry Reed's "She Got the Gold Mine" and Tracy Byrd's "Ten Rounds with Jose Cuervo")

However, I just get a much better vibe from POPD, because it's more of that good kind of clean fun drink away my sorrows thing, as opposed to Caanan's being more drunken debauchery. Maybe I'm being overly influenced by the videos, but that's my take.

Chris Janson, and it is not even close. At this point Chris is 2/2 with his singles, and Canaan has done literally nothing to impress me.

Canaan for me. It's more like 00's country and the song structure flows more naturally. 
Chris Janson's song puts me off a bit, it's not linear, can't really relate to the theme, his singing tone gives me "I'm bored" vibes, I somehow feel that the instrumental bridges are taken from another song and the twang is way too much for me.

Gonna go with Canaan... Not a huge fan of POPD.

I guess Chris Janson. I like both of them decently, but I'm not crazy about either one.

Chris Janson, easily. Canaan Smith is meh.

I actually really like Hole In A Bottle. Something about how the song just naturally flows so well together and it reminds me of Kip Moore (that's a great thing).

Chris Janson well his music I'm rather indifferent torwards.

Not a fan of either, but Chris.

Chris's song is one of the worst on his album which was solid overall, whereas Canaan's is one of the best on his, which wasn't a particularly good album (IMO)

So while I don't particularly enjoy either, I'm probably going to go with Chris.
