President George W. Bush may be an even bigger country music fan than his father. In 2005, Bush shared what was on his presidential iPod and it was chock full of country music.

The Texan president seems to prefer hardcore traditional country. Alan Jackson and George Jones appeared several times in his playlist. However, he’s not afraid to get left-of-center when it comes to country music. Canadian alternative country-folk band Blackie and the Rodeo Kings also made an appearance on his list, as did the song “El Paso,” by Austin, Texas alternative country band The Gourds.
