Taste of Country (USA) - 50 Best Country Songs of the 2000s [and 2010s] (2019)

Lists by single critics or musicians, published in magazines or on websites, have lower priority. The amount of such lists would be impossible to handle.
(However, priority is given to single author lists from books, very famous music critics and artists with albums or songs ranked on Acclaimed Music. Single author lists are also more likely to get priority if they are not limited to a genre or artist.)

Written by Billy Dukes. Unranked, one song per artist (or so he says - Kenny Chesney seems to have escaped that requirement, somehow). Note that like the Radio Hauraki list from a while ago, "2000s" actually means "2000s and 2010s," so I likewise put that in brackets.
