Justin Rutledge

I hate his guts he must be a Dynamic NF / Beta NF
-
music does not do justice to covers
-
is this the guy who makes the music for every church I've been to?
-
His music makes me sleepy and it sounds like background music for emotional movie scenes in some kind of family drama movie. :/
Could be an IEI, but a very sentimental one with a lot of weltschmerz.

Honestly, I find a lot of his music to be kind of boring... I chose four songs of his I've heard that I thought were good or somewhat good. I can definitely see Beta NF for him: IEI or EIE-Ni. In some pictures he looks like he could be a rational/judging type and he's definitely not a logical/Thinking type (the way I think Paul Bowles could be).

I think I've seen Justin Rutledge in concert once when he was the opening act for Kathleen Edwards [who might be LSI-Ti (probably Static/Se-creative at any rate)]. I like her a lot more than him. Here is the thread I made for Kathleen Edwards:

I'm having a lot of trouble deciding what my five favorite albums of 2013 are, so Justin Rutledge's album Valleyheart might still make 4th or 5th place for me. I'm not sure yet. None of the albums on my list are albums/CD's I've bought, just ones I got from the public library, and listened to through the course of the year. And there are definitely a lot of Betas and Beta NF's in folk and country music, both alternative and mainstream.
I learned a new word today -- weltschmerz:
Weltschmerz: a feeling of melancholy caused by contemplating the state of the world. [German Weltschmerz, from Welt world + Schmerz pain]
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/weltschmerz?s=t
"sorrow that one feels and accepts as one's necessary portion in life; sentimental pessimism." [literally, world-pain]
"sadness or melancholy at the evils of the world; world-weariness [literally: world pain]"
