KENNY CHESNEY

They sing country songs in their sleep. Other people would rather dive into a swimming pool filled with old, rusty nails than listen to the twang of country.

Kenny Chesney seems to be one of those country artists whom even the anti-country music people can appreciate.

Chesney has a smooth voice, can sing both slow- and fast-paced songs with ease, and runs the gamut from strictly country to country-pop.

That and who can resist a singer who has a song called "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy?"

Runners-up: David Landeo and Dolly Parton
