1) It's a rather odd film and people have been confused by it but it's gorgeous to look at and quite sweet.
2) Fantasy :)
3) That's okay, he's an aquired taste and I doubt many people I know would like him
4) see above - it's to do with the Miley Cyrus photos
5) yeah... Glad to hear you're a bit brighter though :)

2.) Excellent, it's the main genre I read. When you publish it be sure to let me know :)
3.) I've no idea what his music is like, I'll have to find some sometime to make a judgement. The comment didn't sound like it was about the music ;)
4.) Ah, yes. I had heard about that. I think it's a case of any publicity is good publicity. Sad state of human kind, everyone wants to be famous at all costs...
5.) Things always get better. Just going a day at a time :)
6.) I think this is the first conversation I've had with numbered dot-points that hasn't been an argument ;)

2) shall do :)
3) Country music. I may have been talking about both the music and the musician ;P I'd recommend YouTubeing "I Wanna Talk About Me", "Stays in Mexico", "A Little Too Late" - they're some of the funny ones and good tunes. Be careful when you get to the Angry American ones or Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue - they're catchy but a little pro war :S
6) 'Tis rather fun, isn't it? :)

3) I'll have a listen tonight I think. I'm quite partial to some country music on occasion.

Really?! I was beginning to think I'd never find anyone within my circle of friends who likes country music. It really is a shame that no one likes it because it's one big party happening over there and everyone else is missing out.

If you do get a chance to listen, I'd be intrested to know what you think. :) Only if you have time though, or the want..

Lol, don't worry, you're not being too pushy. I may not get a chance before the weekend, but I'll definitely have a listen.

Oh, and yes, really :)
I don't love all country music, but I do like some of it...

I did get the time; he's quite the singer. I enjoyed them all, thanks for pointing them out.

And I agree, Courtesy of the red white and blue is too pro-war for me, but a catchy song none the less. Actually, it may just be his national pride, but the song comes at a time where most people believe that the US made some bad decisions so it's hard not to take it as pro-war.

Oooh, I'm so glad :) He is funny. He did say something about his views on war and he's actually not all that pro war, something about supporting the troops and supporting a previous war but not this one so much... I don't know, that song got a lot of flack from people and he know has a feud going with the Dixie Chicks 'cause Natalie wore a Tshirt to a show saying "FUTK". It does show just how patriotic Americans can be and that they are bought up to believe such things, like he says, his father fought for his family's freedom and so they support their countrymen doing the same - it's all about what you're bought up with. Interesting... and annoyingly damn catchy.

Anyway... sorry, that's my little rant over.

Really? Interesting :)
Good to hear it's not meant to be pro-war, but pro-soldiers; I'm cool with that.
