Hellbound Glory - Be My Crutch by RustyKnuckles
The below text is directly from the 9513.com
"As the year winds down, the staff here at The 9513 has been taking a look back at everything that country music had to offer throughout the previous 12 months. It was a daunting task, to say the least, but we’re happy to bring you our best country songs of 2010.
Inclusion on the list is restricted to original recordings released in the past year and significant covers are typically removed so we can focus on new music. That being said, there was something compelling enough about the top song this year–a Vern Gosdin cover–that it completely dominated every other song in our rankings. Funnily enough, the artist in second place covered a Vern Gosdin classic himself, but he earns his highest placement for recording an unreleased Keith Whitley tune that would have made a fitting zenith itself.
Below, you’ll find artists classified as Mainstream, Bluegrass, Traditional, Americana–or numerous other permutations under the country tent–but mostly, we hope you find good music and discover a few gems in the process. Sound off and let us know some of your favorite songs released in 2010.
