    First we need to figure out the setting of the murder. What city is home to country music?Who Killed Country Music?

      Nashville. Now that you are in Nashville, Tennessee, let's get on with solving the crime.

    Now you will need some help in solving this murder, and who better then the two people who recorded the song 'Murder on Music Row'. Which two artists recorded this song?Who Killed Country Music?

      George Strait and Alan Jackson. Ok, now you have your help. Let's get down to the suspects. If you have not heard this song, may I suggest that you get George Strait's newest greatest hits package and listen to it. 'Murder On Music Row' is a wonderful song and took a lot of nerve to record since it really puts down the people that are running Country Music these days.

    Suspect 1: Who sings the song 'Tonight The Heartaches On Me'?Who Killed Country Music?

      The Dixie Chicks. After questioning the Dixie Chicks, we decided they were no longer a suspect in this crime, but they did become very nervous when we brought up the disappearance of 'Earl', but that is a different crime and we aren't on that case.

    Suspect 2: Which artist performed a concert in New York's Central Park?Who Killed Country Music?

      Garth Brooks. Garth may have a big ego, but he's no killer. Therefore, he is off our suspect list.

    Suspect 3: Which artist recorded the song 'Breathe', which crossed over to the pop music chart?Who Killed Country Music?

      Faith Hill. Even though Faith Hill has had some crossover sucess, she still has some roots in country and is not a suspect in the crime. She may however, be considered an accessory.

    Suspect 4: Which artist had their first country hit with 'Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under'?Who Killed Country Music?

      Shania Twain. Yes, Shania is a suspect, does she really have talent or it is all production? As evidence of her talent being all production, I enter into evidence her first album, before Robert John Mutt Lange started producing her, this album is flat and shows she isn't as talented as her album sales have shown.

    Suspect 5: Who produces Shania Twain's albums?Who Killed Country Music?

      Robert John Mutt Lange. He remains a suspect because, he brought a 'rock' background into country music. Now that Shania is selling millions of records, everyone is trying to copy her style to sell records.

    Suspect 6: Why did country music radio not give a lot of air time to Vince Gill's song 'Kindly Keep it Country'?Who Killed Country Music?

      Too Country. Looks like we have a Prime Suspect! How can any song being played on Country Radio be considered 'Too Country'?

    Suspect 7: What is the country equivalent to 'MTV'?Who Killed Country Music?

      'CMT'. Videos have changed the music scene more then anything else. Now instead of going by how good the song is, they go by how good you will look in a music video!
