I was thinking those Garth songs too. I wonder if he says “favorite” that way in real life. I’m with Annie on “Money in the Bank.” I actually love southern accents in general, as a Northerner, which is helpful as a country music fan.

Oh, I love that part in “Money in the Bank.” I’m surprised John Anderson didn’t come up before now too.

Thanks to everyone for making this such a fun thread. I have lots of new words to listen for now.

Just to clarify my earlier comment about the way John Anderson sings “Money In The Bank”……I meant that I go crazy in a good way! ; }

In John Anderson’s “Seminole Wind” there is a line ” I sat down on a cypress stump”. The way he sing the word “stump” is amazing to me. I think it’s the way his voice drops down in the middle of the word – it’s like “stuhhmp” Also, in his song “Money In The Bank”, when he sings ” your loves better than money in the ba ya yank” – I go crazy every time! I’m a little suprised that no one has mentioned him yet…..but, have really enjoyed reading all the posts. Great discussion!

Loretta Lynn of course! “In the summertime we didn’t have shoes to weh-er/ But in the wintertime we’d all get a brand new pah-er”. I love just to hear her talk!

Definitely Ashton Shepherd!!! “A picture of you beside my hea-e-e-ead” in “Whiskey Won the Battle” What an amazing voice!

Jennifer Nettles in many songs. I love the way she “bends” her syllables.

Corey, I agree with you 100 percent on Joe Nichols. There are few pieces on that album that knock me out in the phrasing. In “Real Things” when he says “dad, I love you too” you can almost hear a tear. Also “Aint Nobody Gonna Take That From Me” when he says ”fix a bowl of rice krisperies”.
