- Deeper than the Holler – Randy Travis - twangy and sooo country, but I like his music for some reason

Favorite Songs on My iPod
These songs are not necessarily my favorite songs, but they are songs that I listen to repeatedly and sing along with. I removed all Amy Grant songs from the list, because I've pretty much loaded 95% of all of her songs onto my ipod.

Finally! Sombody that likes Amy just as much as I do. And Frankie, dear Frankie. And Dean. Although I don't have any Amy or Dean on my iPod. Oh, that's right, because my sister loaded all of HER favorite music on there. I'm American Idoled out.
