And, country stations are good for driving if there's nothing interesting to look at because the songs are more likely to tell a story. Like a guy meeting a girl at something like the county fair, and he has BBQ sauce on his shirt, and he likes the look of her in her miniskirt, and they skip stones at the river by the RR tracks, and he kisses her (whether they go further is not clear), and then they part -- only to meet again on a plane to New Orleans, where they recognize each other and both remember their happy day together. There may have been a third verse, but the weather was getting bad and I started thinking about that. Anyway, the story factor is good, but I bet the songs get dull once you have the story down. Like rereading the same REAAAAALY short story over and over.
