Little Bitty written by Tom T Hall. Book about TTH said #1 song royalties paid alot better in the 90's than the 70's.

What put Alan Jackson over the top was his songwriting, music videos and just the music itself.

All great singles, but for me “Wanted” is the perfect country & western song.

There’s a little hole in the wall country dive bar that I used to frequent far to frequently here and I’ll still pop-in from time to time. Perfect country jukebox song, will remember E23 as I shuffle off this mortal coil.

Luckiest artist alive. Average voice, low energy and zero charisma. You can hear more talented singers at any local karaoke bar

Not wrong about the voice TBH. But he’s got some great songs.

The fact that he only has 2 Grammys is stupid.

The guy has the single best country music voice ever. Not to mention, he wrote a bunch of his own songs.

The thing I like best about him is that he’s not Kenny Chesney!

Drive ..it's one the songs that makes me stop and recollect every time I hear it. Totally relate to feeling like Mario Andretti when my dad let me drive on trails etc ..an now I have two daughters of my own. What a great song.

Met Alan Jackson at the Concourse D Amelia Island some 20 yrs ago ..very nice guy

Its so difficult to pick a favorite. Best I can do is top 3 and that's damn hard to do. Alan Jackson is one of those artists who i can just put their whole catalog on while fishing, listen to it all day and never get tired of any of it.

Alan Jackson is meh country. Lots of paint by numbers hits. I typically change the station when he comes on. Sorry.
