Young Country Singer

Post by John Bechtel »


I stopped in at a "Waffle House" this morning, and in one booth sat a 5 or maybe 6 year old girl, with her mother. The little girl was singing along with the juke box, note for note and word for word to the record that was playing! The song was Great Day To Be Alive, by Travis Tritt! Not traditional or hard-core Country, but; a darn good start for a young'un! It gave me new hope for this music business! Keep it com'in!

Yeah, the young ones pick up those lyrics and melodies quick. My three sweet little girls can sing every lyric that comes on the radio. Unfortunately, it's all rap/R&B. I can't even catch all the words, and thank God they don't know what a lot of them mean. I think. Image

Jody, glad to hear your granddaughter has gone to the dogs, so to speak. All is not wrong with the world when kids sing Bob Wills. Image

Barbara, your grand children have a great gift. Many of us here envy that sort of talent. I guess my only advice is be sure and only play them music you'd like to hear again, soon.
