One of the radio stations here did a "Stong women" themed show for around 4 hours one day a few months ago, and played Amy Winehouse and Whitney Houston. Now, they very well could have, because I did not listen to the full show, but I didn't hear any Sinead. And I'd consider her stronger than them, considering what she's gone through.

Well, what do you expect from fans whose team's season is usually over by July (at the latest)?

Jeremy Pruitt finally has a new coaching gig: He's coaching high school football in Alabama! Oh, and some delusional Oklahoma fans are already talking smack about the SEC, even though they don't play there until next year. There's a graphic on Facebook showing that covered wagon they bring on the field that actually says "Hey, SEC, your daddy is coming!". I think they've confused "daddy" with "bitch". 6-7 last year, no clue this year, but I'm thinking 4 wins max next. Texas will be more successful than Oklahoma in the SEC.

Not Mattel, but a Hungry Hungry Hippos movie has been in the works for ages. Hopefully it never sees the light of day.....or is a horror flick. (Hippos are more responsible for human deaths than any other animal in Africa.)

I watched that episode of SNL when it originally aired, and wasn't it Madonna who later tore up a picture of her after performing?

I said "possible" scenario, but lets change that to "possible AND reasonable". (So lets make that robot Putins, thank you very much.) And my name is one word. I just spell it with a capital M because it looks better that way.

Can't watch it because we dropped cable and don't get Starz (though we could through Prime, if we realy wanted to. We get Showtime through Paramount +), but I heard she did the theme for the latest season of Outlander. For those unaware, the Outlander theme is just The Skye Boat Song with a woman singing it (did a male-female duet one season, I believe), so "Lad|" is changed to "Lass" in the lyrics. And they do a new version each season. Skye Boat Song is a great song, but surprisingly I don't like Rod Stewart's version at all. I really like Rod Stewart. Did I hear correctly that she converted to Islam several years ago?

The first country concert I ever went to was Kenny Chesney (with a then unknown Brad Paisley as one of the opening acts) back in 1999 or 2000, and She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy is my jam. He peformed it twice. Second time as the encore. (Band was breaking in a new fiddle player, and they aced it.) I still have the Kenny Chesney cap I bought, and wear it when I'm not in the mood to wear a sports team cap or driver hat, and one with mesh is a no-go due to possible rain. The other opening act was a group called Yankee Gray, who didn't last long. They had mic issues during their part of the show.

Chevalier, via Hulu. Great movie, and the lead is an American who pulls off a somewhat convincing accent (why they're using British accents in a movie about France is beyond me....). Good movie, based on a true story, but it does take some dramatic license. For instance, the opening scene did not happen, but Bologne and Mozart did know each other. I give it a 4.5 out of 5. And if anyone who has seen it knows what the song is that is playing at the end (before the end credits) is, please let me know.

Nah. The one about drinking is much much better.

I was talking about more traditional Irish music, like the Chieftains. You need more Blake Shelton. I recommend you check out Ol Red, Sangria, Austin, Sure Be Cool If You Did, and two songs he did with Trace Adkins, Hillbilly Bone and Hell Right. Taylor did an episode of CMT Crossroads, where she performed with my favorite 80's band (and still one of my favorites) Def Leppard. Love Story actually made a quite good duet. But Taylor trying to do Pour Some Sugar On Me, was....weird. |"The do you take sugar? One lump or two?!" part which is supposed to be loud sounded normal range. My 22 year old stepson, who listens mainly to hip-hop, really likes Luke Combs. I've caught him singing to Beautiful Crazy. His grandmother and sister took him to a Luke Bryan concert several years ago.

Kris Kristofferson is a Rhodes Scholar. He actually started writing while in England. Speaking of Steve Earle, Copperhead Road is the first cassette single (yes, I am that old) that I ever bought. I need to listen to more of Townes Van Zandt. Didn't know until recently that Pancho & Lefty was originally done by him, not Willie and Merle. Have also been listening to a lot of country rap lately. Colt Ford and Moonshine Bandits mostly, but also some Demun Jones, Lacs and others. Moonshine Bandits do some crossover stuff. They'd have Corey Taylor, David Allan Coe and Buckcherry on some of their songs. Colt Ford and some singer I've never heard of did a cover of Linkin Park's In The End, which I seriously recommend.

Country music and Irish music do have a lot in common. Probably because a lot of Irish settled in the south. (I've been listening to some Irish and Scottish music, but really have no idea what I should listen to.)

Red Sovine and C.W. McCall.

Amos Moses and When You're Hot You're Hot.

Hell, if he illegally recruited and paid every single player on the entire team, I'd still want them to beat Ohio State. There is absolutely no possible scenario I can think of where I'd want to see Ohio State win a game. Though my own personal hell would be an Alabama-Ohio State National Championship rematch, or Ohio State vs. Notre Dame.

My aunt picked me up from middle school, and all she ever played was Alabama and Randy Travis. EVERY. FUCKING. DAY! I still twitch when hearing a couple of Alabama songs, but like a lot of their stuff. Randy Travis, however, I just plain do not like. I actually hated most country music until I was in my 20s. Listened to Hank (Sr AND Jr), Kenny Rogers, Ronnie Milsap and Johnny Cash, but that was about it. Hank Williams Sr is, along with Willie Nelson, one of the finest song writers this country has ever had. I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry is as perfect as it gets. Willie wrote Patsy Cline's "Crazy", which would qualify him as a Hall of Famer even if he had stayed just a song writer.

Anyone else a fan? If so, do you prefer old school twangy, classic country, modern which is more poppy crossover, country rap (ie, Colt Ford, The Lacs), or enjoy a mix? I personally like a lot of it, but there are a few artists I can't stand. Mainly due to being forced to listen to a LOT of it as a kid and it leaving a lasting sour taste in my mouth. Conway Twitty, Buck Owens, or Randy Travis? NO THANK YOU. However, I've come to respect Roy Clark (watched a lot of Hee Haw) as a musician a lot more.

Awful lot of money to spend on a QB who probably won't make it past the second round of the playoffs during that contract.

If you haven't, go listen to The Best Is Yet To Come, and I Left My Heart In San Francisco. The latter was his signature song.

(Hot Country Knights is actually Dierks Bentley and his band using aliases, and Darla McFarland is Lainey Wilson.)

Pardon me for the long time in replying, but its been that long since I've even checked this thread. I agree about it being one of the dumber entries. The stunt at the dam is one of the more unbelievable driving sequences in the series that don't involve using a car to take out another vehicle. And as I said, Dante = the Joker in a couple of scenes. The actress who played the stewardess that helps Jakob on the plane is Paul Walker's daughter, by the way. Now, a few other things:

True. Body Heat is undoubtedly one of Kathleen Turner's finest performances. Maybe even in the discussion for her best. But if I made a list of my 100 favorite movies of all time, it wouldn't be on the list. Double Indemnity definitely would be somewhere in the top 25.

They should do what I suggested before they took on the (shitty) Commanders name (with an even shittier logo): Go back to the Indian head logo or arrowhead helmets, and call themselves the Washington Warriors.

Body Heat is not a remake, but `influenced by'. Ie, they took the basic plot and did their own thing with it.
