Howdy, folks! Is there anyone here that's interested in starting up an "Important Country Songs" section? I hope the answer is yes, so let me know if anyone's interested!

P.S. I've got 2 Johnny Cash songs that would be perfect for starting things up: I Walk the Line & Ring of Fire.

I would hope Run By George Strait and Shameless By Garth Brooks earn induction. I've nominated several Country songs and albums over the years. It's been hit or miss for induction.

I have nominated some country songs on the song project here and there as well. I would be interested in contributing In a country song project and maybe a country album project. Not sure if I have a lot of country albums in mind at the moment.

I'm glad to at least see the idea of a country song and country album project gain some positive momentum. I'm willing to be patient in this regard, but I'm starting to formulate a list of country songs in my head that would be a good start for a list. I'll try to keep you posted.

I would be willing to take part in the song and album lists.
