Don’t miss out on the TIMELESS songs of Big & Rich! Click and enjoy all the classic hits of this influential duo!

15. Please Man (Between Raising Hell and Amazing Grace, 2007)

“Please Man” which features Wyclef Jean just seems absolutely bizarre. Combining country and reggae with Wyclef Jean spitting a verse laced with country reference such as “dressed in black like Johnny Cash” and “I was at home watching Reba”.

14. Never Mind Me (Comin’ to Your City, 2005)

“Country music is very song-centric, letting the lyrics and the everyman vibe dominate the song. Big & Rich blow up the size of this song and putting a twanging-banjo in every song.”

13. 8th of November (Comin’ to Your City, 2005)

“This song like any other is subjective, depending on the listener’s preference. However, if you are a true aficionado of “Big & Rich,” then this song is excellent. It also helps in appreciation if you are a patriot of the USA and not some far left wing nut job wanting to dissect the fundamentals of our great Republic and feed us socialist poison. This type of music is for real Americans!”

12. Look at You (Gravity, 2014)

“Big and Rich are growing up and you can hear it in the richness of their voices and harmonies. They should have a big hit with this one! The album “Gravity” comes out 9/23 and the rest of the songs sound just as good. I think it’s going to be their best yet!”

11. That’s Why I Pray (Hillbilly Jedi, 2012)

“This song really hits home and tells it like it really is. The more foreigners that come into our country, the more rights and beliefs we have are being stripped from true American’s, just to accommodate others, this isn’t our country anymore, they have stripped everything from us. This is one strong and powerful song.”

10. Comin’ to Your City (Comin’ to Your City, 2005)

“I love hearing it each Saturday morning on college game day, and now I have it for my listening enjoyment anytime I desire. If you like country music with a fun undertone of rock, you will not be disappointed.”

9. Radio (Between Raising Hell and Amazing Grace, 2007)

“Maybe most people will think this tune comes from out of the left-field, but every now and then the boys will record a song with substance. its a great video and a truly great song.”

8. Lost in This Moment (Between Raising Hell and Amazing Grace, 2007)

“Yes, definitely a wedding song. The guy is singing to his bride about how happy he is to be marrying her. It’s a beautiful song, which differs greatly from my other favorite Big & Rich song, Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)”

7. Run Away With You (Gravity, 2014)

“Love this song! I was never a big fan of “Big and Rich”, (no pun intended), but this is one of the best “country” songs to date in my opinion. Great song from the duo. Their harmony is fantastic.”

6. Holy Water (Horse of a Different Color, 2004)

“I agree that this song could be about abuse. Really, it’s how you take it. I can relate to this because last year, I lost a lot of my innocence. I tried drugs. I tried drinking. I got into a really bad relationship. I snuck out and got busted by the cops. When all of that happens, you do feel like your innocence has been taken from you. I think it’s about a girl like that. Rumors get spread and all but you never are the same and yeah, you do act strong in front of everyone else but when you’re alone, you bust out crying, letting the tears roll down your face. Nobody hears you and if they do, that don’t help you. They leave you to your own devices.”

5. Rollin’ (Horse of a Different Color, 2004)

“There are lots of fun songs on this album. Most of the others seem to grow on you over time. It’s rare you find an album that you really like 80% of the songs! Very innovative. These guys are masters of music…if you really listen you will hear all the details.”

4. Loud (Between Raising Hell and Amazing Grace, 2007)

“Great song and video, very well done, both Big Kenny and John Rich sing well with emotion and feeling. The words of the song are moving and meaningful. Very enjoyable.”

3. Lovin’ Lately (Gravity, 2014)

“These guys have been around long enough to know when the time is right to release a killer song. Tim McGraw is a nice touch in the vocals. Big & Rich do a good job yet again with music that makes people want to hear it.”

2. Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy) (Horse of a Different Color, 2004)

“If you haven’t heard it, you need to, because it is hilarious and the singing is phenomenal. Rollin’ is the song that introduces you to Big & Rich and what they and the muzik mafia are all about. Still, the most exciting addition to this CD is Never Been Down. It is on the fan pak release as well and it is a gorgeous song. The first time I heard it, it instantly became a favorite. The lyrics are very uplifting and the vocals are breathtaking. I’d definitely recommend buying this one.”

1. Big Time (Horse of a Different Color, 2004)

“I like this song because they sound like they are having so much fun and because I like the setup. Always makes me smile. Big & Rich don’t get enough credit for how good they are. I love how they harmonize so well. This song is one that sticks in my head all day long. Great song.”
