I'm definitely in. Joe Diffie was the embodiment of '90s country.

I somehow missed the tag for this lol...can’t wait to go back and revisit his songs as they are filled with childhood nostalgia.

I thought this was really cool! One reason that Joe Diffie had such an early influence on me in my youth was because I was always glued to CMT and saw his videos on all the time. He and his team did a great job back then because they really had some of the most memorable music videos of the time...literally every one of his biggest hits from the early 90’s from “Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox (If I Die)”, “Honky Tonk Attitude”, “Third Rock From the Sub”, and “Bigger Than the Beatles” all had great videos. Heck, even the song “I’m in Love With a Capital U” is a song I like a tad bit more if only because of the video. I’m really looking forward to this rankdown and hope y’all enjoy his material as much as some of us did growing up!

I'm almost finished, but unfortunately I'm having a hard time finding a way to listen to "The Grandpa That I Know" and "I'm Not Through Losin' You" (the YouTube links won't play for me). Is anyone else having this problem?
I know "The Grandpa That I Know" from Patty Loveless, but I've never heard Joe's version of it.

I'm not sure why those two links wouldn't be working for you as they go directly to Joe's main YouTube page, but I see that there is a link for the Spotify playlist at the top of the thread if that helps any.

Now that I have wiped out Kenny and Tanya's rankdowns, I should be able to finish this one pretty quickly! I did them first because they were like 100% new discoveries for me, but this one will be more like 50% discoveries.

Unfortunately, Spotify has never worked for me (nothing at all to do with your playlist). For whatever reason, those two YouTube links aren't working for me either...possibly it could be due to me being outside of the US? I'm not sure. I hate to be annoying and cause extra work, but if you were able to upload those two songs to your website, that would be great.

This was uber-difficult to do, especially with the time constraint (which I'll admit was my fault), but it would've been difficult regardless of when this happened. I knew what my top two were from the very beginning. Also found some great discoveries and some singles that might've done better on the charts had some polarizing songs either been saved for later or not been released at all!

Good Lord, bboat11 must hate a lot of Joe Diffie's music if this couldn't fit in his bottom 10.
