Tim McGraw Addresses Distracted Driving In Latest VIDEO

Jaclyn Graves — Thu, 09 May 2013 16:13:07 +0000

I like to think that I don't drive and text. I like to think that I am a safe driver and keep distractions to a minimal. Truth is, I do sometimes send a quick "I'm on my way" or "LOL" response. I've seen the commercials pleading drivers to not text and drive. I was just behind a teenage girl yesterday and I could tell that she had both hands around the steering-wheel, texting away, driving down Frederica. This is not ok. We MUST STOP driving and texting!

Tim McGraw's latest single "The Highway Don't Care" is a beautiful song, I've loved it every since I heard it for the first time. Tim's video for this song acknowledges the problems with texting and driving and is a must see!

PLEASE watch this video and let's all STOP distracted driving!

Moon's Tips on Being a Real Man

Moon Mullins — Sun, 28 Apr 2013 15:03:58 +0000

Well, a lot of things make a real man. Tim McGraw sang about it. For me, what makes a real man is a spare tire from drinking too much alcohol, hair that fell out in the shower twenty years ago and a personality that doesn't want to do anything but stay home. Now, that's a man. Oh, and one who drinks scotch.

Apparently, not everyone agrees.

Should Been a Hit: Tim McGraw's "Drugs or Jesus" [Video]

Chadwick Benefield — Sat, 06 Oct 2012 03:00:24 +0000

I don't get it. That's pretty much the common thread in this column every week, right? To me, there are songs that SHOULD have been hits that weren't. And, sometimes, they belong to artists who ALWAYS have hit songs. In those instances it's even more difficult to imagine a song NOT cracking the Top Ten. Take, for instance, "Drugs or Jesus" by Tim McGraw. At the time of its release, Tim had struck gold with his CD Live Like You Were Dying and was coming off 4 consecutive #1's. This song, by design, should have had enough momentum to at least crack the Top Ten. But, it didn't. In fact, for whatever reason . . . the possibly off-putting title, the heavy subject matter . . . it stalled out in the teens. But, I think "Drugs or Jesus" SHOULDA BEEN A HIT! Listen!
