The most reliable indicator that a song will be a country hit is if I hate it. I hate this, so well done, Cole 😂

Follow the instructions on the packet.
Cook in the Nashville oven for as long as it takes,
serve with custard, cream or nepotism.
No added sugar or creativity, pinch of salt added.
Enjoy Mama Nashville's home grown, flag an' apple pie.
Hope y'all come back now, hear!

that was disappointing. I was thinking of a different Cole, two for that matter :) You should really be specific which Cole you are referring to. I was thinking Nat King Cole or Cole Porter. Dude, get out of your sinus 😂

There's been half a dozen songs posted on this forum in the last month, better than this. Some of yours would be in that number.
Show business is not the same as the music industry, one's out to make money the other concerns itself with music.

The song "Kill A Prayer" was written by Cole Taylor, Josh Thompson, and Jesse Frasure and is performed by country music artist Cole Swindell; with Frasure also producing the track.
I guess its just a matter of opinions, I think its a great song , if trends say put a pin stipe shirt on a monkey , that's what ya do
I kinda know how these staff writers work , They look at crowds at concerts , see what evokes the most applause , Write accordingly , its business

Totally get it Elvis, professional writers deliver whatever the man asks for, they have to put a roof over their heads.
The total manipulation of the music industry by show business, labels/producers/media, etc, is burying music in mediocrity and rewarding only those who comply with their requirements and in turn those of the public who have been conditioned to expect and demand those same requirements.

I'm not sure it's manipulation , it just what people want to hear . Its music business not charity

I think manipulation started back with the Beatles, Monkees and Beach Boys, bands became brands and the dollars rolled in, hasn't stopped since.

Well the powers that be might have control on what young people are going to like . We're going to force feed you this. There might be a better unknown song , by a nobody , But you're never going to hear it , on a mass level. its all subjective , we like that word

Our NSAI chapter had a Nashville producer talk to us about the top 10 country songs of that year. He was careful not to say the best 10 songs. That's subjective, of course. These songs were all dumbed down in terms of lyrics and mostly also in terms of an interesting melody, but they followed a particular pattern. And obviously people like them. That pattern changes from year to year, and if you set out to write to it, there's a good chance you're too late LOL. He also listed the songs that won awards. It was a completely different list from the biggest hits.

I liked it. I'll remember it tomorrow. That's unusual for me. Usually, I've got to have repeated listens for it to stick. Is it a 'great song'? I'm not qualified to judge. I just know I liked it.
