Which would you prefer to listen to? They both have had a lot of hits, but unfortunately, Little Texas broke up. Just in case you need a memory jog, here are a few tunes from each:

Diamond Rio - "Meet In The Middle" "She Used To Be My Sunshine" "Bubba Hyde" "One more Day"

Little Texas - "First Time For Everything" "Kick A Little" "God Blessed Texas" "What Might have Been"

So, which one made/makes you sing along?

Edit: Forgot to say, I couldn't choose. They had a similar style, and they could almost have been interchangeable. I liked them both! :D Don't hate me because I can't choose, you'll find a better reason!! :lol:

Let me start off by saying that I like both groups, but Little Texas' "God Blessed Texas" does it for me!
This song is a state anthem and make me even more proud to be a Texas! Ya-hoo! :thumb:

I figured you'd pick that one, Trixter! ;) Although, I have to say, they did great work beyond that, too, but I still sing it like I live in Texas. :lol:

I voted for Diamond Rio as I am more familiar with their songs. Ty Herndon used to be the lead singer of DR, didn't he?

Little Texas!!!

Another poll could be Ricochet vs Lonestar.
They were very similar before Lonestar blew up and became so popular.

I don't think so, Michael. If he was, I've never heard of it. As far as I know, Marty Roe has always been their singer. On a side note, he's from Lebanon, Oh. How cool is that for my state?! They don't all come from Texas and Tennessee!! :lol:

Thanks, Val! I found some info on the web which explains my confusion. Ty was the lead singer for the Tennessee River Band which later went on to become Diamond Rio after he left the band. Here's the web site where I found the info: Ty Herndon... (http://www.delafont.com/music_acts/Ty-Herndon.htm) :)
