Country songs you’ve heard people say they like that...

[HeyHeyHey]

...don’t like/listen to country

I think this is an interesting topic because there are a lot of people that don’t listen to or don’t like country but every once in a while will like one. What are some instances you’ve seen in your life when this has happened, Here are some for me that I’ve heard:

“Tequila” - Dan + Shay
“When It Rains It Pours” - Luke Combs (overheard someone once call this the best country song they’ve ever heard.)
“Need You Now” - Lady Antabellum
“Merry Go Round” - Kacey Musgraves
“Kill a Word” - Eric Church
“I Love This Bar” - Toby Keith
“Chicken Fried” - Zac Brown Band

Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. I’m interested to hear what you’ve all come across from people who don’t listen regularly or maybe don’t even like most songs in the genre.

“Before He Cheats.” Everyone loves “Before He Cheats.”

“Jesus, Take The Wheel” may not be a universally-liked song, per se, but the phrase has definitely entered our cultural vernacular.

I've shown 80's Mercedes to my friends, and some seemed very positive about it despite liking virtually no country songs

Kacey Musgraves - "High Horse"
Chris Stapleton - "Tennessee Whiskey"
Little Big Town - "Girl Crush"
Taylor Swift - "Love Story" and "You Belong With Me"
The Band Perry - "If I Die Young"
And most of Sam Hunt's Montevallo album even though I refuse to categorize it to country
