Catchy Songs in Country

07/12/2010
.
The Oak Ridge Boys' classic "Elvira" was named the catchiest song in country music by AOL Music's "The Boot" with the lyric, "Elvira, Elvira/My Heart's on fire, Elvira/Giddy up, oom-poppa-oom-poppa-mow-mow".

Lead singer Duane Allen comments, "When I opened up my AOL account, one of the headline stories for the day was about the 10 catchiest songs in country music history, I followed the link and started to read the top 10.

"I started at 10 and wondered what would be next as I scrolled down the page. I was thinking that we would not have a song on there, then at #1 was our huge hit Elvira. You could hear me screaming all the way from Oklahoma. Thanks to Dallas Frazier for writing such a song that bought us all a new house, and a new car."

The Top 10 Catchy Songs in Country: (according to AOL "The Boot")

1. Elvira / The Oak Ridge Boys
2. The Gambler / Kenny Rogers
3. You Belong With Me / Taylor Swift
4. Family Tradition / Hank Williams Jr.
5. Achy Breaky Heart / Billy Ray Cyrus
6. It's Finally Friday / George Jones
7. Man! I Feel Like A Woman / Shania Twain
8. Dang Me / Roger Miller
9. How Do You Like Me Know? / Toby Keith
10. Undo It / Carrie Underwood
