This is for the people that we think are overrated & overexposed. No matter what they do.........

Well, this is bound to upset some people I suppose. I haven't listened to my local radio station in a long time. They've never played Gary as much as I'd like (and as much as I requested).....but the one d.j. plays Clay Walker all the time. He hasn't even done anything in ages.....I just turn it off. He won't be paying bills by making the listeners turn it off, that's all I'm going to say.

O.k. I wish they played more Clay around here...BTW...He just put out a CD last year; that's where "Fall" appeared...
Anywho...
Overrated (JMHO)...TAYLOR SWIFT, Carrie Underwood, Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, Toby Keith...Basically, any of the "lucky 10" that radio sees the need to "shove down our throats" everyday!!!
Underrated...Jeremy McComb, Whiskey Falls ( but, in fairness they are still "fairly" new ), Jeff Bates, Clay Walker, Phil Vassar (my piano man
), Lari White & Lee Ann Womack
I know that "happy line" between "getting the artist out there" & "making me sick of their name" can be accomplished...Because, I still enjoy hearing Josh Turner & Emerson Drive...Although, they were "pushing it" with "moments"...But, I "REALLY" loved that song; so, I was in a more "forgiving" mood!!!

OMG! I thought I was the only one in the world that loves Lari White!! LOVE LOVE LOVE her new cd "Green Eyed Soul."
I got to meet Emerson Drive in Nashville. They are so down to earth & normal. They were awesome. Made me a fan for life!!

I would have to say CARRIE UNDERWOOD, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw and sorry but Kenny Chesney is overplayed and I do have his CD but don't listen to much at all.

i stopped listening to country almost a year ago because the only 2 stations here only played kenny or toby. i'd rather listen to the hibbedy hop in the car next to me than hear one more of their songs.

Well, lasmaj.....come on over this way....I've been hearing "Fall" almost everyday on WCTY out of Norwich, CT....and yet when I would ask why he can't play GARY ALLAN, I'm told..."I have to do what's best for the radio station"....whatever THAT means! I was told he is friends with Clay Walker. Whatever!
Doesn't Watching Airplanes/Nothing on But the Radio/Man to Man/Tough Little Boys making #1 deserve some airtime? I can remember the "Fall" video being out a few years ago.....Playing in once in a while...okay.....not more than Gary....especially not when fans are calling in for THE MAN.....Just no excuse in my opinion. So....I don't listen like I used to.

Overrated: Sugarland, Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Toby Keith, Lady Antebellum (or however it's spelled), and Taylor Swift. Yes I said her name twice but that's because I think she's really overrated!!!!

Not overrated in talent part, but overplayed I think. Brad Paisley. "TICKS" ugh!! But "Whiskey Lullaby" wow. tear time.
