Country radio really isn't "country radio" anymore anyway. It's a shame legends like TL and a lot of others aren't being played anymore for whatever reason! Im just glad he's staying true and country. Love his voice and his music!
Look for the old country music stations, they are still country..
No it’s not, country music isn’t country music anymore it’s POP Shit
@@kowgirlnme Where do you find those?
Avoid listening to these radio stations , we have ways to spread the word . I have over 100 CD's I can play anytime I want to listen to the past country artists who have passed on . Best music ever !
There's some truth to that today but definitely not at the time of this scenario.
I love all of Tracy's songs. He is and always has been in my top ten favorites of all time.
Love Tracy. He's a legend. If the world had a front porch was an important song to me when I was growing up.
Good, sure. LEGEND...no. He aint anywhere near George Strait.
@@aaronpatterson2369 George Straight ain't no Johnny cash or Hank Sr. either...
If you haven't been to one of his concerts. Let me tell you you are missing out. Hands down the best concert I've ever seen. And it had to be special for him. To hear the entire crowd sing every word and I mean every word back to him. Man I still get chills
She with Don Williams especially I in England and Australia.
Been to 2 of his back in the 90's
I am an ex Heavy Metal Bass player. Tracy's band played at the casino I was an IT tech at, in 2013. I have to tell you, I was freaking amazed how damn good and tight they were. I watched the setup and sound check. They showed up, no enclosures or speakers on stage (If they had monitors they were recessed somehow), plugged their heads in, threw in some ear buds, and kicked ass. I never detected anything I would come close to calling a mistake, missed note, off pitch, nothing. My girlfriend kept saying... "But you don't like country"!!! I have to say it was a performance I won't ever forget. Tracy's vocals were flawless.
I seen him and Tracy Byrd last year. Both are still just as good now as they ever was. Hands down still better than some of the new ones that are on country radio now days.
Tracy Lawrence is awesome and one of my favorite country legends
Love him! He was my first country concert back in the '90s! 🥂
i saw him in Mississippi a while back
I love Tracy Lawrence. Down to earth singer. You sing from the heart.
I love Tracy! One of my favorite all time singers! Always makes good music with his awesome voice ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He should have gotten more awards he's great
Thank you for letting me know that TL's Roadhouse or his U Tube channel even existed! So pleased to see Tracy Lawrence back out there again! My radio station here in Atlanta,GA did play all those 'contoversial' songs and I loved every one of them!
Tracy has had many amazing songs and I have loved him from the beginning and I can't fathom radio not playing the song because of the word" cuss" especially when there were other songs that actually had cuss words and were played without issue!! That's insanely crazy!!
Love you Tracy. I am originally from Westville Illinois. I live in Danville now. I can't wait to see you Sept. 2 in Westville for our 150 Labor Day Celebration.
i have to say that Tracy Lawrence is a favorite of mine. His song, Time Marches On is a great son. My son was born in 1994 and when this song was released I bought the disc and I remember him sitting in the backseat saying "Time Marches On Mom" and he would sing every word of the song; sometimes the song would be played over many times in a row. My son just turned 28 and everyday on his birthday, I share this song with him. In fact the whole album is timeless.
Love Tracy!! Sure miss him singing
Saw him play at my rival high school… small town in Ca in mid nineties…. It was my first concert… one the BEST! Still listening to his music today!
Tracey is an awsome country performer , one of my favorites
Love Tracy, been a fan from the beginning of his career, miss hearing him now. Thank you for standing your ground Tracy. Seems stupid to think they worried about the word cuss when there is more worse sh$t on the radio now.
That’s like the line in Ships That Don’t Come In, we bitch about a dollar when they’re those without a dime.
Exactly.
Yeah the 90s were different times. They were much better than anything nowadays
I love those songs and Tracy Lawrence! Time marches on is one of my faves.
Tracy Lawrence has always been one of my favorites. I love his songs. I've seen him in concert and he's amazing. I think it's crazy that radio wouldn't play him just cause he said cuss when there are artist that actually use a cuss word in their songs and they still get played on the radio.
I've always loved his songs I don't care what they say in them
Front Porch is a great song just the way it is. Every one who grew up "Country" can 100% relate to that song. I shake my head in disbelief at how we've fallen so far so fast from sanity.
Always loved Tracy. Love his music ! He’s a good man. My oldest son met him out West while Jeffie was driving a semi. He was stopped for the night at truck stop. Tracy invited him to go see his concert and even offered to pick him up to go. Jeffie said he talked to him like he was a good Buddy that he’d known forever. Made his day. Thank you for giving him that wonderful memory.
Anntoinette, thats an awesome memory...he seems like he would be a very nice dude...most of the true country artists cant get radio time, gotta make time for the ones that wear the shortest skirts or tightest jeans but cant sing...they go by looks and not talent anymore...shame too...david lee Murphy, john anderson, wade hayes,mark chestnut..thank goodness i have cds...
“Cuss” is not a word of profanity! Country radio is as weird now as it was then. I am positive that song will garner a following without the radio now!
Tracy Lawrence makes REAL country music. I wish him well on his new podcast.
I cut a piece of the awards one night and the girl come out there just half naked no bra a jacket and shorts on but yet he can't say the word cuzz that's why Alan Jackson walked up the stage a lot of them it's all woke garbage now
That's why I play my cd's of him all the time !!!! Radio sucks right now !! No real country music...
Not sure why country radio hasn't moved on from that and why TL isn't back on the radio where he belongs. He is awesome.
Because everybody is offended by every little damn thing today and it's sad!!!
“Country” radio isn’t even worth listening to anymore honestly. Most people just download and listen from their phones.
I love the song but my Favorite song is Find out who your friends are never get tired of that song love hearing it live Love you Tracy
Tracy Lawrence is an awesome singer my favorite 90 male country singer I love all his songs my oldest son was born to if the world had a front porch my youngest was born to Time Marches on Tracy Lawrence's songs are awesome all of Tracy Lawrence's songs are awesome I've been a fan of Tracy Lawrence's since 91 and I always will be
I love TL. He sings from the heart of country. My favorite is “I see it now”. Reminds me of lost love. He always me feel like I was dancing with my feet off the ground. Still does. You GO country boy!!!!!!🤠
Love TL, For many years he has been a staple of real country. He never wanted to be a star just wanted to create and play real music. Not to mention we both live in Wilson County TN. Prayers Brother!!!
That's weird because hip hop and rap were as big if not bigger than 90's Country and they didn't say the word "cuss" they actually cussed SMH!
70's Rock - 80's Metal - 90's Country.
been listening to him for almost 30 years! love this guy
just found it and subscribed..love him
Tracy Lawrence music is honest down to earth Country Music. If The World Had A Frontporch is one of my favorites.
I love Tracy Lawrence saw him Proudly in concert in Littlefield Texas the Home of Waylon Jennings! I love Tracy thank you for all the Great music keep on keeping on! Love Willia Ewalt
Tracy Lawrence has been one of
Tracy Lawrence has always been one of my very favorites since the beginning of his career. I love his voice. I have seen many of his shows and met him a few times. He's a good guy.
Tracy doesnt have to explain to anybody about his songs! The man is a real talent. Ill listen to, enjoy, and buy any music he puts out!
Why this and all his family songs are beautiful ❤️
Country is geting silly with stoping songs being played i wonder when it will stop .
I enjoy listening to Tracy
You are awesome keep on rocking your fans love you me and my fiance saw you in concert and we loved your concert don't worry about what radio says continue being you keep up the good work love you buddy
Enjoy him and he relates to life. Enjoying pod cast
Not really because in RAP music was using every cuss word there is. Rap music was on radio. At times, some had bleeps in them on radio in the 90's. Doesn't matter TL is country music to the core and to always put out great song's since 1994 speaks for itself.
You know this goes out to all the artists I'm talking all of them ......if they all get together they all should open up their own country radio
He's a legend He doesn't need country music radio. Still listening to TL in 2022!!🤘
Saw him and Clay Walker in Chattanooga earlier this year. Best show I’ve been to.
just another reason to support local independent radio stations. Find the independent station in your area, they are few and far between, so good luck. when you shop at a place that advertises on that station, make the effort to let the store know. Maybe we can keep the few independent stations that we have. No, I do not work in advertising or radio.:)
One of my favs from day one.
I always remember hearing that song on the radio back in the day, the small town I lived in never banned it, they played the crap out of it.
Unreal I never knew that...long love country radio! 🎻🪕
You make everything so interesting.
We love Trace awesome artist great songs
I still often hear "Time Matches On" on the radio complete with "Smokes a lot of dope"
LOVE TRACY LAWERENCE....FROM DAY ONE...HE'S THE BEST EVER..❤️❤️❤️❤️
Always been a fan!
Whoever leaves Tracy off air is missi g a Quality part of REAL LIFE!
Were I live we have a country station that plays his music. And I've heard that song quite a bit. KD Country Altavista Va
Things have definitely changed. Then, djs didn't want to play the song because it had the word cuss. But now, they play songs that have actual cuss words and don't think twice. It's something else.
OMG, really??? Because of cuss, & smokes a lotta dope, Well, how many talk about smoking cigarettes, chewing tobacco or drinking? WAAAYYY back into the 1940's, all these songs we have heard for years. Well, Tracy Lawrence is a great country singer. I did get to see him in concert & he did not disappoint. He is still one of my favorite country singers.
Saw him in New Mexico last month :)
I'm a DJ on our local community broadcast radio station. Our only restriction for playing certain songs are the guidelines laid out by the FCC. You know, the 7 or 8 forbidden words as outlined by George Carlin. If a commercial radio station won't play a song because of the word "cusss" or the word "dop-e" then that is a decision made by the owners of the station. It's an editorial mandate. Programs on our station are DJ driven. We choose the songs to play on themed shows and music mixes. I would gladly play Tracy Lawrence's songs on my show. Corporate radio only allows content that fits their agenda.
I would say they would drop him cuz the song says smokes alot of dope thats so crazy. I like Tracy & I'd buy his music who cares what the radio says or thinks.
Anyone old enough to remember Mac Davis?
It was like the early 70's and he had a song with "hell" in the lyrics. And he was so squeaky clean that it made pop radio.
I remember him being interviewed years later about the controversy he created. He said it was funny to be confronted by radio execs who would say, "I'll be damned if I will play a song with hell in it!"
One of the best singers "Period" and his songs are just too relatable at times, I've bought every album he has put out in one form or another.
I just can't break it to my heart...my fav.
Tracey couldn’t use the word CUSS got dropped from radio look at music today songs have the real cuss words not just the Word Cuss ! That’s insane just plain stupid . Tracey is one of the most amazing country artist ever and hate that he went through that !
They have always played all his songs on local radio stations where I live,the two you are talking about has been the most played.
I love all his songs
I cannot believe it, that back in the 90’s a song like that would be banned from country radio. It’s insane
One of the best that is underrated
The really sad thing is, they allow a whole lot worse on the radio today. In my opinion of course
It's like Wilma Mankiller trying to keep Indian Outlaw off the radio because it has Cherokee in it.
Exactly. That particular song from Tim McGraw " was a very Big Hit" is not played on radio today.
Waylon and Willie and all those boys would never be allowed to happen today. I'm so glad I grew up in the 70's when music was truly dangerous
I was wrong guessing it wasn't played because of the word pray... Wow that's shocking. Love and respect TL 🙏🧡🧡😎
TL is a living legend. Period.
I long for those old days when radio actually played country and western, and each song was announced by title and artist. They would often tell what time it was also. I had the radio playing from sun up to sun down and longer. I hardly listen to radio anymore. Sad! I also wish for the return of variety shows on TV. I loved the Mac Davis show, Glen Campbell show and Barbara Mandrell show. Why can't we have shows like those again? It'd be great to see Tracy Lawrence have his own tv show! Sticks and Stones = my favorite!
He is very popular on classic country radio. Forget Nashville and it’s woke culture!
Amen to that!!! Alan Jackson & George Straight have spoke their mind as well on the matter.
Love Tracy Lawrence!
In 1990’s , did not realize this was the History channel .
Stones is one of my favorite songs beautiful lyrics.
Van Halen had an album entitled For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge that came out in 1991😁
Well, that song played at our local country stations in Louisiana...I know it did because our radio stayed on at our carport so horses could listen, horses actually love music.. I always remember my husband and son, loving that song, as they worked on tractors and trucks out here on our place... My son was young then..Now married and a dad of 4...and my husband is Papaw, teaching them boys all to cuss, and work on motors and equipment. Always doing out here in the country..TL music is a family favorite...
That’s what pulled me more to the song I relate to that early days grandpa taught me where I should and shouldn’t cuss if I did and later he gave his life to Jesus so then he talked of when and why to pray so true life it’s country but fact
I just read an article about the U.S. Navy being embarrassed about the Music Video Of Cher’s on the Mighty Mo, saying her being scantily dressed was a last minute shock. That being said, they also referenced the Music Video for Village People’s song and video for In The Navy, so they were alright with a group who were mostly Gay 10 or more years earlier, but were offended because of a scantily clad Cher ? The U.S. Navy needs to reevaluate their position on this and quit letting society indoctrinate the Navy and save face. Society today, is motivated by three things, they are: Politics, Social Status and of course MONEY ! ! ! Talk about bending over and picking up the soap.
P.S. ~ There editing button on Music put out and Radio 📻 Air Play lately ( last 10 years or more ), has been a little lax, because if you can still tell what word they have said, they have been paid to do exactly that and society does not really care.
Tracy is A great singer i use to play his music all the time he is one of my favorites my top favorite is Alan Jackson
In the 90's some of the two face people and are still here. If we could follow them around, we would see they all have a past also. None of us are perfect, the only one died on the cross. They seem to have to put on a show and show how perfect they are. Maybe they are trying to convince themselves as they tear someone else down. The man upstairs knows all about them; you can fool some of the people some of the time, but you don't fool all of the people all of the time. Life is all about making mistakes and trying harder to do better the next time. The song is true, maybe if we all had a front porch, we would all see the world differently. God bless all of us.
My favorite Tracy Lawrence song......
Paint me a Birmingham
Absolutely! This one, Sticks and Stones and Alibis are my all time favorites of his.
WQXK K105 out of Youngstown, Ohio played the hell out of that song when I was growing up.
I can't stand most country music, but Time Marches On is a damn good jam.
Tracy Lawrence got mugged and fought the muggers in a motel parking lot and got shot a couple times ? he’s a true badass
Tracy Lawrence was one of the best of the 90’s and early 2000’s. He has a great distinctive voice and sounds only like himself unlike most artist today.
That's what you you strive for since you can't sound like another artist or you will have short career. Distinction is what's it about,
@@michaelterry4394 there’s a lot of newer artists that sound a lot alike. In the old days it was considered a bad thing. Today they’re looking for a certain sound.
Today the artists rise fast then dive down because they don't get backing from the record labels who just want a fast buck. They also don't hone their craft, just my opinion.
“ that’s how a cowgirl says goodbye”!👌👌
Country Radio was very family values oriented in the 1990’s.
You r the best Tracey
That’s just crazy considering what they play now!
Thankfully we have streaming and can listen to whatever I want. Country radio can disappear and I wouldn’t care at all
They must have not blocked it from air play in all markets because I remember hearing that song on at least two stations that broadcast in my area (Eastern Virginia)!
I heard both those songs on my radio back in the 90s just admit country radio and country music in general is a business and the new shining star is what's important. Quit whining
