I posted a few days ago about my favorite songs, and the best cover songs. Now I wanted to post about the best new Country songs. It’s my favorite genre of music, so I just had to share what I love. Some of these may not be considered Country to some people. That’s your choice to believe it is or is not. I am just going by what it is classified as on the radio. I realize after adding my choices, they are all songs from male singers/groups. I may do a second edition with female singers in the future, or feel free to add songs from female country musicians that you enjoy.
Thank you for your time, and I hope you will enjoy my list!
#1 Rascal Flatts – Yours If You Want It
I haven't enjoyed a lot of Rascal Flatt's latest music ( I was more of a fan of their music when they started out). However, I really enjoyed this song. It's a really sweet, cute love song (in my opinion).
#2 Dan + Shay – How Not To (Official Music Video)
I've enjoyed many songs from Dan + Shay, and this is no exception. The singer has such a smooth voice, you keep wanting to listen. The song is also very catchy.
#3 Jon Pardi – Dirt On My Boots
I seem to really enjoy catchy songs because that's why I picked this one. There have been a lot of good Country songs out lately (at least what I would call Country).
#4 Drake White – Livin’ The Dream
Drake White is a pretty new artist (at least to me). I loved this song the first time I heard it. It's about not having a lot, but still living a dream. You don't need much, but as long as you have love that's all you need.
Here are a few lyrics from the song
"Look at us with a picket fence
Don't got a lot of money but we're making a dent
Old Ford truck with a dog in the back
Now ain't we livin' the dream
Big blue sky, green, green grass
Ain't doin' half bad for a half full glass
Kiss me baby yeah just like that now
Ain't we livin' a dream"
#5 Thomas Rhett – Craving You ft. Maren Morris
I've always enjoyed Thomas Rhett's music. His latest song, "Craving You", is one of my favorites.
#6 Kane Brown – What Ifs ft. Lauren Alaina
I chose this song because I thought it was a very original song. Also, I think Kane's voice is very interesting because of how deep it is. I think it's a good collaboration with Lauren Alaina.
#7 Midland – Drinkin’ Problem
You might be surprised to find this song on my list. I mostly added it because the singers sing really well together and I thought that was most interesting. The chorus lyrics are kind of funny too. That's just my opinion though.
#8 Brett Eldredge – Wanna Be That Song (Official)
Looking through Brett's music, I found out this song is from 2016. I like this better than his most recent song however so chose to keep this on the list. Yes it is not his freshest hit, but it is not ancient either. I personally think this is a beautiful song. What about you?
#9 Old Dominion – No Such Thing as a Broken Heart
I like this song because it has a really catchy tune. Most songs on this list do of course, but this one definitely does. I like the message in the song too, it's very true.
#10 Blue Tacoma
For this song, I couldn't find an actual video. You still get to preview the song however. This song I heard watching a YouTube video where someone saw Russell live. I hadn't heard of him before that point either. I really enjoyed the song, so I decided it would go well with this list.
