Country Music DVDs

One of the hottest singing sensations in America right now is 20-year-old Taylor Swift. She has built up a huge fan base because of her catchy tunes and highly personal lyrics, and received tons of publicity after rapper Kanye West infamously interrupted her during an awards acceptance speech. Once that happened, I became interested in Swift’s songs, bought a couple of her CDs and a few country music DVDs on which she appeared, and now I’m hooked!

Believe me, I never thought I’d be buying country music DVDs and CDs, as I’ve never really been fond of that genre. But Swift’s tunes are more of a pop/country mix and are actually very catchy. No wonder she has tens of thousands of so-called “crossover” fans! Her songs have a certain quality that appeal to all kinds of people, and have helped her become one of the top-selling artists of the year.

Anyway, after liking what I heard from Taylor Swift, I decided to try other artists in the genre. I found a couple of websites that offer discount country music DVDs and CDs, and went on a bit of a shopping spree. I bought stuff from the likes of Toby Keith, Darius Rucker, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, and Rascal Flatts — and loved nearly everything! I have practically worn out all of my country music DVDs already and am going to have to buy a bunch more pretty soon.

Just in case you’re curious, these country music DVDs usually feature such things as official videos for popular songs, concert footage from live performances all over the United States, and behind-the-scenes interviews with the stars. Buying country music DVDs has allowed me to learn a lot about these artists in a very short period of time, and has made it easy for me to become a huge fan. After watching countless hours of concert and interview clips, I feel like I know the singers in a way that’s not possible just from listening to their songs. It’s almost as though I’m more deeply connected to the artists than I would be from audio CDs alone.

That might sound a bit hokey, but it’s true and makes me want to buy even more stuff. So in addition to country music DVDs, I’ve also purchased books, magazines, posters, t-shirts, and key chains featuring my new favorite singers. And who knows, I might even take in a concert or two in the near future!

It’s funny how an incident like Kanye West’s antics at that awards show can bring an artist like Taylor Swift to the attention of folks who might not have heard of her before and result in her becoming one of the top performers on the planet. Thanks to Kanye’s bad judgment and the right mix of country music DVDs and CDs, the genre now has at least one new fan!
