Ella Langley has broken Mariah Carey’s Billboard Hot 100 record, spending 23 weeks at No. 1 with her hit song ‘Choosin’ Texas.’
I think I finally reached old man status; I have no idea who that is or what that song is.
That’s not old man status. Not knowing about this artist or song is a mark of good taste.
Here’s the chorus:
She’s from Texas, I can tell by the way He’s two-steppin’ ‘round the room And judgin’ by the smile that’s written on his face There’s nothin’ I can do It doesn’t take a crystal ball to see A cowboy always finds a way to leave Drinkin’ Jack all by myself He’s choosin’ Texas, I can tell
I’m grateful I’ve never heard it because from reading the lyrics, she’s pining for a total loser. On top of all that, there’s even an official remix by Drake.
Edit: fixed spelling
Pro tip: two spaces at the end of a line create a line break without a new paragraph.
She’s from Texas, I can tell by the way
He’s two-steppin’ ‘round the room
And judgin’ by the smile that’s written on his face
There’s nothin’ I can do
It doesn’t take a crystal ball to see
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
Drinkin’ Jack all by myself
He’s choosin’ Texas, I can tellHonestly the most useful thing I will read today.
Ah. Thank you.
Literally ever country song could be AI generated and not a single speck of quality would be lost.
a song isnt bad just because the singer is pining for a loser. lots of people do that in real life, why cant a song do that
Likewise, and also old enough to miss “actual” country music. This stuff is such piss-weak bland pop-country bullshit and generic as fuck. It’s a caricature of the real thing.
so, like Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran etal ?
Who?
hit song “Choosin’ Texas”
Ah, let’s consult Wikipedia:
Genre: country
That explains things.
Thank you for the answer. I did go and look up who this person was. I’m usually at least vaguely aware of artists who set records, and I’ve never heard of this singer. I am also officially old and out of the loop.
I myself do hear of some of them, but now I’ve been hit with the triple whammy of being old, not being USian, and not giving a damn about country music.
Mariah Carey is a pretty famous artist who may or may not have a grunge album.
the bots have won finally
Voted Best Country Song 2026 by all your favorite AI bots!
It’s not a good song
It’s not a good song
Haven’t heard it, but it can’t be more irritating then Mariah Carey’s solstice shit.
I actually don’t mind MC at Christmas. Do I want to hear it on repeat, of course not but it’s not as ear bludgeoning as most people find it.
You are a deafer man than me then
Who’s paying to keep it there? That song is crap.
My country-listening kid has heard the song and wonders who is streaming it. Not popular in their friend group. This is the first I’ve heard of Ella. 🤷
Will I ever have heard this?
I have no idea who this is.
Ok, so, I went to watch the music video cause I never heard of this lady nor song. I haven’t even gotten to the song yet, but the hats, in a car, in a bar!? Them hats are big and damn stiff. How in the world is that man driving with one on? They aren’t peak comfort either, relaxing in a bar? Naw, more like trying to avoid knocking it on everything and everyone that gets close.
Do people really wear that shit in a bar? No one is wearing it driving, let alone hauling a trailer. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
I wish I could watch things and not notice shit like this.
Yes. It’s absolutely a thing. You think it’s irritating in the setting of the video? Try going to a concert where idiots have these on. It blocks everyone’s view, yet they all still do it.
I like to think I know whats what, even if I don’t like it, but I honestly never even heard of this person or the song I think. I may officially be to old.
Choosing Texas? Yawn. Wake me up when its Losing Texas
who?
Someone needed to take down Pariah Scary.
Is that what we are calling her now?
I may be able to defeat her with my penis.
Can your penis sing? Because you can definitely defeat her.
Seems like a local ‘issue’.
