I want to put together a cd or 2 of country songs, not the sad ones, the upbeat ones for Sunday nights when we're outside grilling and playing games. What's your favorite country song? My favorites are Keith Urban, Dierks Bentley, Taylor Swift. Any help is appreciated! Thanks guys!

Can't beat dolly 9 to 5.

Alan Jackson has several that are just what you describe.

Also Conway Twitty does some good songs.

I'm a Dixie Chicks Fan- "Cowboy Take Me Away" and "Not Ready to Make Nice" are my faves.

What about Carrie Underwood- she's got some upbeat/contemporary stuff
