Avast ye, mateys! 'Tis a wee bit awkward confessin' ye be a fan o' Country music whilst dwellin' in London like a landlubber journalist. 'Tis seen as music fer them rednecks, someone asked me recently, quite flabbergasted. Just as prejudiced be the uproar o'er Oliver Anthony and his ditty "Rich Men North of Richmond". Fer it be a rare contradiction, lashin' out at both the highfalutin elite and the lazy scallywags alike... Arr!
Avast ye landlubbers! It be a tad mortifying to confess yer love for Country music when ye be a middle-class scribbler living in the grand city of London. People be lookin' at ye with a raised eyebrow, as if to say, "Aren't them tunes fer them rednecks?" One bloke even asked me that question, all puzzled like. Arr, 'tis a similar bias that follows the wild success of Oliver Anthony and his ditty "Rich Men North of Richmond".Oliver Anthony be a real scallywag, takin' shots at both the fancy politicians and them lazy scoundrels. His tune "Rich Men" be like a fierce storm brewin', stirrin' up a right squabble among the masses...
