Curtis’ September 2024 10 songs
September - Earth, Wind & Fire. Easy pick of a song, it’s a great song in general with a fantastic sound. Perfect pick for September of course.
Rocky Mountain High - John Denver. As stated before John Denver is one of my favorite artists and this is one of his greatest songs. This song really shows the connection people have to nature instead of living in a city.
John Deere Green - Joe Diffie. This song is a classic 90’s country song. A fantastic combination of a love song and a country story featuring John Deere.
Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning) - Alan Jackson. I picked this song as it a great representation of how people felt on and after September 11th 2001. It gives a good insight for people who are not old enough to remember (like me I was 2) or people who were born after that day.
Courtesy Of The Red, White And Blue (The Angry American) - Toby Keith. I picked this song as it another great representation of how people felt on 9/11. This song takes another angle showing the unbreakable the American spirit.
Longhaired Redneck - David Allan Coe. This is a great Outlaw Country song, I enjoy that sound and style of country music and wanted to represent it here.
Willie, Waylon And Mama - Alex Key. I love when new country songs use old ones as a theme,“Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys" sung by Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings is a time classic so using that as a story for this song is amazing.
Cold Beer & Country Music - Zach Top. Another new song that sounds old. This perfectly captures the essence of just needing a cold beer and country song to fix your mood.
Kicked Outta Country - George Strait. This song continues with the trend of talking about the changes in country music. George Strait talks about how he’s been “kicked out of country” like other artists before as the genre switches from traditional country to country-pop and country-rap in the main stream.
Ice Cream - Jeon Somi. This is kinda just a basic pop song but sometimes I like that. Somi is one of my favorite K-Pop artists from when I really was into K-Pop, so her releasing a all english song, I had to check it out
Bonus 1. Jessica - The Allman Brothers Band. This song was the intro song for Top Gear which is my favorite TV show and with September 13th being the final episode of The Grand Tour which is essentially the successor to Top Gear, having the same 3 hosts and same producers it feels like the same show, with it ending I felt like this pick was needed this month
