“Entertainers” justify anything they do to make their appearances fit the mold. They claim it’s a career demand no different from long hours in most jobs. Many entertainers see their lives as different and even special relative to the mainstream. This allows them to change their attitudes to the point where they don’t see the problems with saying do as I say, not as I do.

As for the songwriting article: “Sadly, he concludes that “great songs” are outcasts, orphans of better days and the current process is why country radio pretty much sucks.” Amen to that! Top 40 country radio just wants sound alike non-offensive material that serves as background elevator music to the lifestyles of their listener demographic. Not only are the commercial mindset programmers not looking for great songs, they would likely reject one if it came along as being too foreign to their thought processes….
