Eric Church and Lizzy Hale " That's Damn Rock N Roll "  ..... That chick has got some pipes on her  :o

Eric Church - Thats Damn Rock n Roll ft Lzzy Hale


I've seen alot of people that thought they were cool , but then again Lord I've seen alot of fools.

Tivoed it and watched it today.
I agree she's one hell of a singer.
My other favorite act was The Zach Brown Band with Richie Sambora singing "Wanted Dead or Alive."
Todays country reminds me of the type of rock and roll I like, not todays music, although every generation has their own style of music.
I also like quite a bit, the guitar playing abilities of Keith Urban and Brad Paisley.

Not too bad to look at either.   :cooldude:

Is that the girl from Halestorm?
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

The "Damn Rock N Roll" song doesn't do it for me, but that Lizzy chick has got a voice that is IMPRESSIVE...

I may have to add her to my CD collection.   :cooldude:

I love women rockers, and am glad you guys found another for me to check out. Here's a lady you may or may not have heard of before. I love to get my dishes rattling with this one:

..

Does nearly every modern country singer HAVE to try and do some pastiche of rap or "Hick Hop". Really.

I think no female rocker can be as awesome in their day as Pat Benatar was.  That lady had a set of pipes on her and some very good songs and still does today.  Lita Ford was smokin' hot and had a few good songs as well as Joan Jett.

As far as CMT crossroads go,  What - NO ONE mentioned Def Leppard and Taylor Swift?   :cooldude:

I also concur with one of the postings about Bon Jovi's Wanted Dead or Alive song with Zach Brown band.  Wanted dead or alive is one of my top 3 ALL TIME songs and always crank it when it is on especially on the cycle when it states, 'on a steel horse I ride'  (meaning the Valk).

Benatar hasn't been succeeded as the Queen of Rock, as far as my ears are concerned.  She is part of a very small group of women rockers who can (or could) really sing, including the Wilson sisters of Heart, Tina Turner, Annie Lennox of Eurythmics, Bonnie Tyler, Stevie Nicks, and maybe Debbie Harry of Blondie.

One lady that might have made the grade if she had made the connections to get an earlier start on her career is Alannah Myles.  Her debut album, which included this song, came out when she was 30.

Lita Ford is part of a group that is a couple of tiers down, in my opinion, which includes Patty Smyth of Scandal, Lee Aaron, and Holly Woods of Toronto.  Their best songs are great to crank up.

Not intending to hijack the thread, but on the topic of wonderful female vocalists - one of my favorites is Amy Lee of Evanescence.  Amazing voice, huge range - and very clear/pure tone.

My 17 year old daughter and I where talking about the same thing. She asked why do they do it. So I told her $$$$ getting more people into the new country scene.

George Jones, Merle Haggard, Conway Twitty, Vern Gosdin, Gene Watson, Hank  Williams, Lefty Frizzell, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Paycheck, Mark Chesnutt, Keith Whitley are country. NOt this ridiculous crap. have a good day.

Lita Ford might not have been the greatest singer, but her bod/face was smokin back in the 80's.  Tawny Kitean (spelling is off) on the Great White video where she was the smokin' hot red head on the car's hood was a young teenager's wet dreams.  I have a weakness for Red Heads and had one in college in my classes couldn't even concentrate in class she was smokin' red head hot but didn't give me the time of day she thought she was above all others. 

The ladies group Heart was an awesome duo vocal group as well and had a crush on the blonde mainly guitar player in the 80's videos growing up and today she is a hottie as well in her 50's.

Hard to believe I use to watch MTV for well over 1 hour per day just watching music videos.  Now I look back and think what a waste,  didn't I have anything better to do?
