You guys should check out "Love Can Build a Bridge", the made for TV movie about the Judds. It's very good. :)

I saw that movie when it was first aired...and I now have it in my DVD collection. Pretty good story of their lives :tup:


To keep this thread on track, here are a couple more country ballads:

I have to represent my girls The Dixie Chicks, since Natalie has one of the most beautiful voices I have heard in country music.

Wide Open Spaces




Cowboy Take Me Away

Some Sara Evans...

I absolutely love the Edwin McCain version too. :)

In country music, almost all songs are ballads........they all tell a story :)

That is a beautiful song....I had never heard it before, and I really like Trisha Yearwood.
