January 31, 201313 yr Sidenote: It is interesting that my opinion of Hank Jr gets 3 pages of responses immediately yet an article about whether debt and deficits are as bad as some pols make us believe gets zero responses.
January 31, 201313 yr What is the measuring stick for talent? What makes you a talented song writer? What makes you a talented singer?

January 31, 201313 yr What is the measuring stick for talent? What makes you a talented song writer? What makes you a talented singer? Good question. Sort of the underlying point here.
January 31, 201313 yr It's like porn.So there is no standard and it is in the eye (ear) of the beholder?
January 31, 201313 yr So there is no standard and it is in the eye (ear) of the beholder? Yes. How would you ever put it into words? I've already shown that using metrics such as album sales and awards tells us nothing. You know it when you hear it.
January 31, 201313 yr Staying in the realm of country music, I'd take EVERY song TVZ ever wrote over ANY Hank Jr. song. I'll stand on his coffee table in my cowboy boots and say it too.
January 31, 201313 yr Yes. How would you ever put it into words? I've already shown that using metrics such as album sales and awards tells us nothing. You know it when you hear it. Disagree on album sales, I think that may be the one measurement that has meaning. With something so subjective, only identifiable by the eye (ear) of the beholder, then wouldn't it be fair to say that the most meaningful measurement then would be popularity?

That would mean Kenny Chesney has talent..,
January 31, 201313 yr Enjoyed the convo (even though most of you are wrong:D) Need to go eat plus I have my Milli Vanilli album to listen to.
January 31, 201313 yr That would mean Kenny Chesney has talent..,To his millions of fans, he does. With no way to measure it, prove he doesn't.
January 31, 201313 yr So...anyone like Hank III? :lol: Yep...I have a couple of his albums on vinyl.I also like his side band Assjack!
