    To add to a quick post. George Strait holds the record for most number one hits on Billboard’s country chart. He enlisted (not drafted) as an infantryman in 1972 during the Vietnam war. He’s on a very short list of inspirations with Georg Jones and Conway Twitty for almost all male country artists. He really brought about a return to traditional country music, and very much deserves the title of King of Country. So much good music. Does Fort Worth Ever Cross Your Mind, The Chair, The Fireman. Keep digging. It’s a deep hole!

      King George. Dive deep into his music. I cross my heart, check yes or no, troubadour, to many to list. He never sang out of his range and still sounds the same today as when he started. He is a true country singer. He got discharged with today's country music and retired because like he said today's country is rock not country music. God bless you George Strait thank you for all the wonderful music.

The other thing I would point out is that Alan Jackson's songs have held up better over time. George's songs were popular at the time they came out, but most of them have fallen off the radar of popular consciousness.

      I believe he is a true gentleman! When I was in high school my friend was fighting leukemia her dad a well known team roper and George Strait met him several times. When he heard my friend was in the hospital fighting he sent her yellow roses and when they were coming in the door he was calling her hospital room. I’ve always admired and will never forget that three 14 year old girls were in shock and her mom was too we all cried.

    George Strait is a real cowboy. He actually lived the rodeo life which is what many of his songs are about.
    George Strait is an iconic country legend! He has released 44 albums total, 11 of which are compilation albums. He has had 60 number-one hits in his 33-year career. He is like a fine wine and gets better year after year. This is not a rabbit hole to gently ease yourself into, this is a rabbit hole you run to diving in headfirst!

    I've had the priviledge of seeing George in concert a number of times and, as a media member (radio), have actually been backstage and met the man. Not only is he pretty much just a regular guy and very personable, he doesn't put on a big 'show' on stage. He's just himself, gets up and plays the songs. Some artists are just able to interpret a vocal in a way that reaches people. George is one of the best at this, and I believe that is his greatest appeal. When he first came on the scene in the early 80s, his sound was kind of revolutionary. Country had gone really 'pop' sounding, which is fine, but George (and a few others) brought a more traditional country sound back to the forefront. He then proceeded to chart hit after hit after hit eventually earning the title "King of Country." According to Wikipedia, "Strait currently holds the record for most number one songs on all charts by an artist in any genre of music." He outta be King of something...lol. Thanks for the reaction, guys. ;-)

    Back in the 80's, I wanted to take my husband to a George Strait concert ,for our anniversary. I couldn't buy the ticket until payday ,and I was worried it would be sold out by then. I called to get the tickets, and the lady said that it was pretty full, but we would be sitting to the side, and a little bit behind him. But she said he knew people would be sitting there, so he would be turning around. Then she laughed, and said... besides you're going to get to see the best side of George lol He is famous for his Wranglers lol
    He is one of the greats in country.

    My favorite George Strait song is "I Cross My Heart". It was written by Steve Dorff for the movie "Pure Country". George Strait had the lead role in the movie as the character "Dusty Wyatt Chandler". The entire contents of the movie lead up to the creation of this song that is unveiled and performed by George Strait at the end of the movie. It's a good little movie you may want to watch at some point in the future. But, definitely check out "I Cross My Heart". Another huge hit was "All My Exes Live in Texas". But, George Strait has dozens of #1 hits to choose from. He is an iconic legend in Country Music.

    Amber, you mentioned learning more about the rodeo. On the line he sings, "I'll be looking for eight when they pull that gate and I hope that judge Ain't blind", In the bull riding competition, the rider mounts the bull behind the gate and then when the gate opens and the bull flies out bucking and spinning trying to throw the rider off his back, the rider has to stay on for eight seconds so he can score points. Which is hard to do if you draw a really crazy, mean and spirited bull to ride. Riders have been seriously injured and rarely, a few have died from being stomped by the bull that threw them off. Bulls can weigh around 1500 to 2000 pounds.
