There is probably a billion love songs in country music that you have used at your wedding, Valentine's Day or guys do what I did for my wife make her very own CD full of love songs, I've even DJ a few dances and no matter what age they love to dance to those slow country love songs. So I thought I would share some great love songs that I have played either on 92.5 WBKR and dedicated to someone over the years or from a dance that I was. And don't forget that we love you at WBKR thanks for listening!!!!
Alot of country music stars over the years has either did a cameo in a movie or was the main character in a movie like George Strait in "Pure Country" who can forget Jerry Reed as "Snowman" in "Smokey & the Bandit", Tim McGraw in "Flicka" or "The Blind Side" so many movies, so many country stars!

I was recently contacted by WBKR listener Pat McKinney who told me her grandson is in a new Dolly Parton video for “Together You and I”. Wow. He is 5 year-old Dalton Robingson. In March Dalton was diagnosed with Burkitt's lymphoma.

Listening to WBKR as I always do, this morning I heard the new duet from Brad Paisley & Carrie Underwood "Remind Me" it got me to thinking about all the great duet partners over the years like Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn, Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton, George Jones & Tammy Wynette, Waylon Jennings & Willie Nelson, Alan Jackson & Jimmy Buffet and so many more!
Yes, it could happen. Dolly Parton expressed recently she would love to collaborate with the extreme pop songstress. GaGa recently released a Country Road Version of her number one hit, "Born This Way" and hot off the press, she has just released a Bollywood version!? So, I'd say anything is possible and the sky's the limit since Parton has said she's a fan of GaGa's country version
