This thread interests me as someone who's personal "sound" falls kind of in the cracks between country and pop.
I suppose that my songs could be more or less countrified depending on production choices.
I am reminded of the way American Idol does "country" renditions of songs. Remember Kristi Lee's "eight days a week"? I thought that song actually could have worked for her as a country song, but they do what they always do; they inevitably overdo fiddles and other "country" instruments and make every song sound like a weird characeture of the genre.
That is NOT how I want my stuff produced. So, I am reluctant to tell someone "I am hearing this as a country song". What i am hearing is more "crossover". (Eek. I write "sell-out" songs!)
I know this is kind of rambling and not at all about big and rich but that is just how I am feelin' it right now!

"Parents are notorious for telling you not to do something, but not telling you WHAT to do instead. So here are my thoughts. Don't bite the hand that feeds you, give it a manicure. Don't burn your bridges, go out and build more! And of course, Don't run with Scissors, use them to cut out your press clippings!" -Brian Austin Whitney
