Don't lie - you know that Garth Brook's first three albums were excellent.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

I'm with you on the first two - in either order,
but the older I get the more I like "Much too young".
The rest I just can't get into anymore.

Much too young, hands down. I'm not a GB fan, but that song is f-ing fantastic.
On a side note, if anyone can get me that song on CD, send me a pm. Douchebag isn't on i-tunes and I can't ever find his **** on walmart's music site

For some reason, I really liked In another's eyes a lot more when it turned out that the song was autobiographical.

I absolutely loved Garth Brooks before overdosing on him about 5 years ago to the point where I have a hard time listening to most of his songs anymore. I still will listen if it's not one of his most overplayed songs (basically everything on his greatest hits b/c they got a ton of airplay etc)

My top 10 in no particular order

Beaches of Cheyenne
Cowboy Bill
Much too young
Not Counting you
Learning to live again
Calling Baton R.
Standing outside the fire
Lonesome Dove
Unanswered prayers
Rodeo

Interestingly enough I never liked

The Dance
The River
2 of a Kind, working on a full house
Friends in low places.

These were probably on almost everyone's top 10 and without a doubt amongst his most popular, but I never dug them the way everyone else did.

Also- he was one hell of a showman, still without a doubt the best concerts I've ever been to.

My friend and I were in the DFW airport in 1991, on our way to Fayettenam for the final SWC baseball matchup between Texas and Arkansas. My friend was wearing a GB concert T-shirt, I believe for the song 2 of a Kind.

She had a little bleeding hangnail, so we were walking through the terminal, hitting all the little souvenir shops in an effort to find a small first-aid kit with a bandaid. While we were in one of them, this guy comes over to her, puts his arm around her and says something that at first I didn't catch. I thought it was just some guy she knew. Turns out it was Garth Brooks, and what he had said to my friend was, "Thank you for wearing that shirt!"

He talked to us for a long time, until we heard our final boarding call. And it wasn't us asking him questions -- HE was asking US questions. He was very funny and a really nice guy.

Turns out he had seen us walk past him several times without noticing him. He was wearing a pair of jeans, an ACL T-shirt, a nylon adidas jacket and an Okie Lite baseball cap. He wasn't wearing the color-block shirts and black cowboy hat he's known for.

He was genuinely nice to us when he didn't have to be, and that's why I'll always be a fan.

Texanne...he was genuinely nice to you, because he saw that your friend invested in him.

 

[Texanne]

Gee, Litnin, I've never realized that you were so cynical! See you Friday ... and don't worry, I won't be sporting a GB shirt!

HOOK'EM!!!
