Sitting here watching my Sunday ritual HD concert/music shows, current view: Crossroads on CMT. Been a fan of this series for awhile. Basically they take a rock artist & a country artist, get them together, and they cover/duet on each other's songs.

The show itself really isn't much of a surprise. There are enough 'crossover' artists (funny how that term used to be used for Christian artists who crossed to the 'other side', aka 'secular world' - different discussion for a different day) out there - both country artists who find success in the pop/rock arena (Taylor Swift), and pop/rock artists who do so vice versa (Jewel).

What is amazing, however, is how well they match up artists. I have yet to watch a Crossroads that I didn't love, with artists that don't go well together. Today's installment is Maroon 5 & Sara Evans - isn't disappointing. That's the key to this thing working - being good at matching people up who work well, & compliment each other. Seems a good concept that carries across other areas of life, huh?
