Can Toby Keith be an American Inspiration? - pjrocks7 - 23-10-2009
I think so. Toby Keith is pretty much my hero now. Iâve been following for most of his music career and itâs been amazing to watch him stay true to himself and keep producing heartfelt, current, patriotic music. His music is so profound and really just seems to relate to his audience including myself! His new album seems to be more of the same goodness and goodtimes as his previous albums. In my opinion heâs honestly one of the most creative country singers of the last decade. I really canât wait to see what he does next! What do you guys think about his new album? Honestly?

His music is profoundly stupid. It's full of "patriotic" and virile cliches. It's very annoying. I wish that Kris Kristoferson would stomp his face into the ground.

Really vociferous American patriotism puzzles me - I just don't really understand why it seemingly needs emphasised all the time.
I know that it's not everyone but - seems a bit odd from a European perspective.

No comment other than I hate that song.
And I'm a country music fan. problem is Toby Keith is not country in my book.

Re-reading my comment it seems a bit disparaging - I wasn't saying there is anything wrong with patriotism necessarily , just American culture in this respect seems very foreign to me.
- but since I don't really know who this guy is, I'll bow out (2 comments too late)

Toby Keith gives Country music a bad name. I really don't care for him at all.

I don't like anyone who's known by two forenames...

I think he gives a voice to thousands of people. Although his lyrics may not be the most prolific, at least he's bringing people together even if it's at base level.

I would not say Toby Keith is a American Inspiration. No more than any other American that really cares about their country but I do still like the song Courtesy Of The Red White And Blue. The only song I really liked by him. His movies are terrible. As they say, he should not give up his day job. Even though I don't care much for his voice, alot do. I just like the song.
