  15. It is difficult to explain why a person likes certain music and not another. Many people today do not like music that was popular in the 40's or 50's, and I really can't stand hip-hop music. One person's love for a certain song or type music is another person's dislike. I do not like the sound to Achy Brreaky Heart, It grates on my ears. Also do not like the lyrics.. Most people in Country Music rejected Billy Ray for his style of music and the sound it produced. Some of the lyrics from Achy Breaky Heart: But don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart I just don't think he'd understand And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart He might blow up and kill this man Ooh You can tell your ma I moved to Arkansas Or you can tell your dog to bite my leg Or tell your brother Cliff who's fist can tell my lips He never really liked me anyway
