How Cool Is "Burnin' It Down" By Jason Aldean?

Jason Aldean sings "Burnin' It Down" with his typical country awesomeness, adding a spice of hip-hop-ness that helps makes the song a smashing hit. The sultry theme, may have helped to ignite the song's popularity this year. Jason sings it with his amazing laid-back charm, that may make the song become burned in one's mind. (Would you say, that it has had that effect on you?)

 

Thompson Square Do Well With Parodies -- Diverse Acting Rolls -- and Expressing Fullfillment With Each Other

Thompson Square really knows how to do parodies and sing with affectionate passion. It's all about what we really have, and having one another is part of our basic need for connection. Sonny and Cher knew about the fulfillment of having one another in "I Got You Babe" -- and Thompson Square are apparently fulfilled with "I Got You" -- which in the below video, shows-off their clever parody and diverse acting roll skills too!

With "Everything I Should Be Thinking About" -- Thompson Square also show-off their playful and diverse acting roll skills, with a song that reminds us that sometimes thinking about somebody one should not be thinking about, is the right thing to do.

Congrats George!

George Always Seems to Give It All He Has -- and He Comes Out a Winner

Every Country Gal Who Flaunts Her Country Ways is Attractive

To be deeply-rooted in country music roots, is quite a fundamental state for extreme country music lovers; and to be innately connected to one's down-home roots, and to celebrate every aspect of country, is a remarkable thing.

Jason Aldean sings "She's Country" -- which tells of a gal's devotion to her down-home roots and flaunting country ways, which is always attractive. 

The Uplifting Power of Love May Make One Dance With Her Feet Off of the Ground

Apparently, dancing with one's feet off of the ground is light-years away from dancing with one's feet on the ground. Could something called "love" be the igniting force that prompts one to be uplifted in mind body and spirit? It may be such an awesome thing -- to see someone be that much in love; or to be in that wonderful state of being.

Tracy Lawrence sings "I See It Now"-- which tells about seeing someone in that wonderful state of love.

When the Dark Can't Hide Your Feelings of Temptation

Have you ever been tempted by someone so strongly, that you can't conceal it from your significant other? It's may be pretty tough to hide your desire for another, from your immediate lover.

Billy Dean sings "Tryin' to Hide a Fire in the Dark" -- which exemplifies the impossible situation of concealing one's desire for another person, from someone who can immediately put two-and-two-together. 

A Perspective About "Rags to Riches" Success

From one extreme to another -- being broke, and following one's dreams towards making the dreams come true, is quite an accomplishment. Reaping the rewards of all of the success, by which the hard work and perseverance has paid-off has got to be profoundly rewarding, especially if one has come a long-way initially.

Everyone has dreams and goals they hope to accomplish. It's the beleive in one'self, the hard work, and especially the perseverance that helps to develop those dreams into a successful reality.

Sugarland sings "Baby Girl" -- which exemplifies the "rags to riches" success story.

Sultry Lisa Brokop Sings "Take That"

The power of a clever retort, to a relationship gone-wrong is presented in the telling of a situation that warrants a witty remark in payback for wrong-doing. 

Lisa Brokop sings "Take That" -- which delivers an example of how "take that" works, for being done wrong to.

Lisa sings the 1994 song, with a sultriness that one can't deny. 

A Clever Little Song Telling About the End of the Money During the Month

Yes; It is very funny, that it is very typical of money running out at the end of the month. Who has not been there? It may be very ironical, but that situation has got to be a universal tendency of people running out of the green-stuff too early in the month.

Marty Stuart sings "Too Much Month (At The End Of The Money)" and lays-out the oh-too-common experience out, in a clever-little catchy-tune.

The Sweet Telling of a Gal Who Has "Taken a Shine" -- Sung by John Berry

The girl next-door, may need sometime to bloom into a beautiful woman. The guys may initially notice the obvious bombshells in movies and magazines. They are the unattainable women, who may be packaged perfectly for attention and idealism. However -- the plain-Janes who are not-so celebrity and maintain a girl-next-door image, tend to be over-looked by many men. However -- it's the fortunate man, who sees a jem-in-the-making, and chooses to pay attention to the over-looked beauty of a lovely lady who has taken a shine because of him, who is the richest. For he is the one who's keen discernment and appreciation for the lady's pluses, which also (in-turn) makes her shine even more and makes him shine, in return.

John Berry sings "She's Taken a Shine" -- that tells of a story about a situation, similarly described above. John sings with heart, and makes one feel the sweetness of a gal who has "taken a shine".

Perhaps -- Continuously Thinking About Another Person Has It's Place for Reproductive Purposes

A one-track mind, maybe part of Nature's survival mechanism in relationship to hyper-focusing on someone to reproduce with. Kind of like the "honeymoon stage" when being in-love is part of the bonding for a full-bloomed romance, the one-track-mindness that happens when someone is romantically courting another, may be a very essential part of the desire to romantically bond for reproductive purposes and the survival mechanism for human beings, because (perhaps) the hyper-focus allows one of another person's desire, to be the focus of attraction for reproductive purposes. (And not necessarily the focus, related to an OCD condition.)

Trisha Yearwood sings "Thinkin' About You" -- which is a song, about an individual's continuous thoughts about another person.

A Light-Heated (Yet) To-the-Point Song About Not-Hogging the Conversational-Street

"I Wanna Talk About Me" sung by Toby Keith is a perfect song about fairness in conversation. A person being talkatively open about everything in a the individual's life, can indicate a great trust and can be very flattering to another. Flattering, because, not only does being open indicate trust, it also shows that the receiver of all of the personal information is likable and worthy enough to be a part of the share. And sharing is the key word, regarding communication. Sometimes, the incessant talking of another can get irritating and annoying, to say the least. Sharing in the communication of personal info, is definitely a two-way-street, ideally speaking. However -- not all relationships have balanced communication. In reality -- there are people who knowingly, or unknowingly, hog-the-communication-road, when it comes to sharing in conversation. That's when someone needs to step-up and say what Toby says, when he sings (in the video below) the light-hearted and to-the-point song, about the need to share personal information in conversation.

Tracy's Heart and Soul Performance of "Paint Me a Birmingham" is Heartfelt

Tracy Lawrence sings "Paint Me a Birmingham" in this live performance, that shows an awesome connection to the song. In the below video, it is apparent, that Tracy sings with his heart and soul, in telling of a story about an artist and a man who lost his lover. Tracy's vocals and presentation in this particular performance of the song, brings-out the quality and essence of the lovely song, about a man's plan to be in a lost lover's arms, even if it is only a visual, painted by an artist who is directed by the man in a by-chance encounter.

"Soon" Can Be a Great Retort to Being Put On the Back-Burner for Commitment

Tanya Tucker in 1993 at the CMA sang "Soon", in which she expresses in a story about how the word "soon" can be given back as a clever retort to being put-on-the-back-burner for commitment. Tanya sings the song in a beautifully stunning performance, that shows-off her exquisite physique and just how gorgeous she is, in the 1993 video shown below.

Romantic Temptation -- and the Need to Say No to Your Natural Urge to Say Yes

What do you do, when you have been tempted by someone unavailable to yourself, but definitely someone who lights a desirable fire for you? Ya gotta be strong enough to say no, to your natural urge to say yes, to pursuing the individual romantically.

BlackHawk sings "I'm Not Strong Enough To Say No", in the video below. A demonstration of what may go-on, in a situation of romantic temptation.

Having a Song in Your Head All Day Long May Be a Great Way to Appreciate Music by Hyper-Focus

If you got the song called: "That Song In My Head" in your head all day, that would be quite the irony of a double-backed mirrored situation.

Everyone can snag onto a song, that becomes the catchy-tune of the day, but how much of that, could be related to an attention-span disorder, is something to ponder -- but not to ponder all day. It would be funner to hyper-focus on a song that is "in your head" all day long.

Julianne Hough sings That Song In My Head on her self-titled album, which is a super fun song about having a song in one's head. (And it's usually the upbeat cool tunes, that one may anchor to for the joy and pleasure of music appreciation.)

 

A Love Song That is About Living-Out a Love Song -- How About That?

Jason Michael Caroll sings "Livin' Our Love Song"  in a tribute to a love that endures the test of time. Proving the doubters as being "wrong" is always a plus, when it comes to showing-off the strength of a loving relationship. In the long-run, every heart must desire the fulfillment of living-out a love song made for them. And "Living Our Love Song" exemplifies the ironical concept of that, by being a love song, that is about living a love song.

"Sara Smile" Done Beautifully in a Country Cover Version by Jimmy Wayne

Hall & Oats made "Sara Smile" a memorable reflection of the greatness of their classic singing style. And Jimmy Wayne, presents his (undoubtedly) remarkable version of the Hall & Oats 1976 hit.

In the 2009 country cover version, Jimmy sings the song with such precision, meaning, and passion; while adding a refreshing country style to the sweet song about a gal named Sara.

In the video below, Jimmy and Daryl Hall are performing "Sara Smile" live at Daryl's house. (Such an amazing combination...)

Lookin' at "Look at You" by Big & Rich

The harmony of Big Kenny and John Rich, makes the song: Look at You, another cool tune for Big & Rich fans to enjoy. Big & Rich present a rich quality of music sound-styles, and the "Look at You" song, exemplifies their versatility. The album cover of the same title, is intriguing and mesmerizing -- with a simple, yet, deeply-blue eye design.

Loving Another -- It's All About the Choice of Fidelity and Boundary Values

The video below, presents Restless Heart performing live at the Grand Ole Opry, the song titled: "Why Does It Have To Be Wrong Or Right" and that is the ultimate question, regarding fidelity in relationships.

The desire to be with more than one person in a relationship, is often a struggle for some. What's so wrong about softening the hard black-and-white shades of right-and-wrong, to softer gray-shaded areas? Sometimes our desire to share ourselves with more than one person, may seem harmless, and selfless; a natural thing to do. And the more, the merrier. However -- The individuals who are free with sharing their love, may not be so free with their significant-other reciprocating that type of behavior, if there is a double-standard. However -- if both parties have a mutual understanding, then the giving-and-receiving benefits of loving another, exemplifies the beauty and sensibleness of the freedom to love many; which may sound like a party to some; and a non-relationship to others.

Gotta Be Glad That "Star Search" Found Such a Remarkable Group Being That of Sawyer Brown

In the video below -- Duncan Cameron speaks of energy, and the effect that an audience has upon performing as Sawyer Brown on "The Life & Times of" featuring Sawyer Brown in 1998.

The feedback of an audience, is always essential for a beautifully energized give-and-take relationship between performers and their fans -- and Sawyer Brown can certainly appreciate and reciprocate the love of their audience, while performing hits like "Thank God for You" -- another catchy and upbeat tune, that shows-off the group's fun originality.

Thankfully, Sawyer Brown went from being an obscure group, to being the upbeat and identifiable stars, having been initialized with being "Star Search" winners in the 1980's. The quality of Mark Miller's voice, is certainly rich and uniquely identifiable. His fun moves on-stage, bring the upbeat and originality to the group's performances.

"This Night Won't Last Forever" may not be an original hit for Sawyer Brown, however -- the way that Mark Miller and the group covers this 1970's classic, is quite remarkable. Below, is such a lovely presentation of the smooth-sounding, hopeful melody.

Gretchen Wilson and Kenny Chesney Have Great Singing Chemistry

Gretchen and Kenny make "Hurt So Good" sound so good. The duet they sing together, delivers a playful demonstration of their great singing chemistry. Their version of the 1982 John Cougar hit, is powerfully fun and entertaining.

Young Love May Bloom Into Mature and Enduring Love

There are high school sweethearts; and there are grade school crushes. Young love is a wonderful thing. It can be complex, or it can be as simple as checking a 'will you be by girlfriend/boyfriend?' "yes" or a "no" questionnaire. The condition of a young person who develops a friendship with another young person of the opposite sex, may be the budding of a long-time or forever romance. George Strait sings "Check Yes Or No" -- about playful young love, that endures the test of time.

Doing Something Right is Even Better When Acknowledged by a Passionate Sigh

Billy Currington's "Must Be Doing Something Right" is a romantic smooth song, about someone who thinks that he must be on on target, or at least in the right direction in regards to pleasing his partner. The passionate sigh of a lover, may speak a lot of words about a partner doing the right thing. Someone who knows what he or she is doing, makes being on the same page and romance a pleasurable natural thing. To be in-sync with one another by being able to read the sighs, is a part of reaching the romantic goal. The acknowledgement and appreciation of someone who knows what he or she is doing, is part of the importance and delight of being a couple. 

Four Ladies Make "It's A Heartache" a Cool Personalized Classic

Bonnie Tyler, who sang the original "It's A Heartache", is the lady who started it all. The ultimate song for the heartbroken, "It's A Heartache" may remind us, that even when we depend on people to be there for us, we may still be let down, and we can lose the ones that mean the most to us.

Juice Newton -- Lorrie Morgan -- and Trick Pony, are also three ladies who covered "It's A Heartache". Each version of the song has variations, that make them cool and personalized covers of the classic -- and it all started with Bonnie Tyler.

  

 

"Nobody" and "Snapshot" May Prompt a Nostalgic Sense for Sylvia Fans

Everybody may not remember this upbeat 1982 song, but Sylvia preformed it with a cutie-pie inflection to her voice, singing the words of this cleverly worded song, which I believe is very nostalgic.

Sylvia sings "Nobody" -- live in 1982. 

"Snapshot" is another nostalgic wonder sung by Sylvia, to be remembered and appreciated.

 

Crystal Apparently Loves Growing Her Hair All-the-Way -- And Sings "Half the Way" on "Solid Gold"

Partial love, is not necessarily a desired condition. It may seem like a little-bit of a tease. The full-effect of love, is always better. Crystal Gayle sings "Half the Way" -- a song, that (in this interpretation) reminds us of the desire for the full-effect condition regarding total-love. She sings the hit on "Solid Gold", with such grace and beauty. (And extremely beautiful long-hair, as well. You may wonder, which kind of conditioner she uses.)

Perhaps We Are Not So Far Apart -- Feeling United by the Moon

When a couple is apart, they can find solace in the perception that they may not be too far apart, when they see the same moon which shines also on their away partner. The moon may create the illusion or give the feeling of unity, because it travels with us. It makes us feel connected; and in unity with each other. A great focal-point for creating the feeling, that your partner is not as far as he or she really is.

Toby Keith sings "Does That Blue Moon Ever Shine On You" which may remind far-apart couples that focusing on the moon, may create a feeling of being united.

Sara Evans Sings "Perfect" in a Relaxed and Upbeat Style

Sometimes the act of abandoning perfection as an absolute part of one's life, can create relaxed relationships that fit like the comfortable easiness of a pair of tattered jeans. Being a slave to perfection is futile, because there are not many things that are actually perfect and it can distract one from fully relaxing and enjoying life and relationships. Just being one's self and letting go of the need to be perfect, can be liberating and attractive.

Sara Evan sing "Perfect" -- a song about the coolness of letting go of trying to be perfect. 

Time is Ticking -- Is This Relationship Worth Slowing Me Down For?

To want someone to hurry-up, because you want them to slow you down (from leaving) in a relationship, is ironical. Appropriate, if you want them to show you that they think that there is a glimmer of hope for saving a relationship.

Sara Evans sings "Slow Me Down" -- in this beautiful video of her. The contrast of the lipstick shades, are as contrasting as the paradoxical (oxy-moron) request, that she sing about in "Slow Me Down".

A Perspective About the Honeymoon Stage and Carrie Underwood's Great Singing Pipes

The "honeymoon stage" of a romantic relationship is a delightful and endearing one. To be enthralled in each others affection for one another, is (from this perspective) a part of the bonding initiation. Once, you have developed the bond, after you are initiated and conditioned to one another --the intensity of the big-fuss and bright fireworks, sometimes fizzles-out; not completely out, but, it may dissipate to where you would like to be reminded of those outstanding romantic fireworks, that originally made you realize how amazing your relationship originally started-out as being.

The song titled "Remind Me", reminds me of how Carrie Underwood has an intense and beautiful set of singing pipes. You too, can appreciate that when you hear Brad Paisley sing Remind Me (Duet With Carrie Underwood) -- which lays out a situation about a couple wanting to be enthralled, and distracted by each others intense affections, once again in their relationship.

Darius Rucker Sings "Radio" -- In Appreciation For the Feeling-Good Times of Tuning-In to It

The fun times of cruising around with the essential device of a radio in your vehicle -- made for a joyous memory-making ride, is such a cool experience. The radio is so simple -- It plays your favorite upbeat tunes and makes you clap and snap your fingers, throwing your hands-up with enthusiasm to your favorite songs. And, you don't need a lot of money to appreciate those cool times of celebrating with your friends or chilling with your sweetheart, while tuning into those speakers. 

The radio is a catalyst for creating memorable good times, and is appreciated. Especially appreciated, is this song, which is sung by Darius Rucker, who is also appreciated for his upbeat good-time memory-making tribute to the good old radio.

For Being Such a Small Word -- "Gone" Sure Does Make Ya Think

You may wonder, when someone says that they are "gone" -- exactly what state of "being gone" they are in. There are the temporary varying states of being gone, and then, there are the absolute permanent states of being gone. It's as if, there are "31 flavors" of being gone.

Below -- Chris Cagle sings the clever "What Kind of Gone" song, acoustically. 

Rascal Flatts Sings a Song That Gives Us Something to Think About Regarding the Choice to Move On With One's Life

There comes a time in a person's life, when letting go of the past, especially the burden's of blame is essential to moving forward and living a more fulfilling positive life. Moving on with one's life, with the understanding of what and who matters most, can be essentially liberating. To understand who and where you are appreciated the most -- allows for the choice to let go of straggling ties, and allows you to self-improve and focus on the priorities of your life and build on them. Understanding who matters the most to you, also does the same. Remembering that regardless of who is currently in your life, you are the initial one who matters -- allows you to first build a strong foundation for yourself, also making you stronger for the people who matter the most in your life.

Rascal Flatts sings on their self-titled album, the song called I'm Movin' On -- which is (interpreted here) as being about the liberating and the sometimes essential choice of finding oneself through prioritizing and letting go of some things, which allows one to open up doors and to move on with one's life. 

Gary Allen Sings a Reminder Regarding Things Running Their Course

Eventually... there is no more rain, because the storm stops and situations change. The pain of heart-ache eventually runs it's course and one can turn-over-a-new-leaf for a new beginning and brighter days.

Gary Allen sings Every Storm (Runs Out Of Rain) on the album titled the same. The song is a reminder of how things run its course.

 

A Few Good Men Making History by Singing the Classic Theme Song From "The Dukes of Hazzard"

This video, is of a very original performance by John Schneider and Tom Wopat. Singing : Waylon Jenning's "Good Ol' Boys" from "The Dukes of Hazzard" television program of the late 1970's and late 1980's.

Having played Bo and Luke Duke on the program, John and Tom sing about the good ol' boys, that they once were on the show, by duet-ting the show's classic theme song, that was originally sung by Waylon Jennings.

Gotta admit -- Seeing those two good ol' boys now -- being, good ol' men playing guitar and singing that classic, is quite touching and indeed -- "historical".

Bomshel Reminds Us That We Can Create Positive Change Even in Small Ways

Everything hinges on everything else. To influence change in a positive way, by being one of the catalysts in day-to-day encounters may seem a like miniscule feat; but, it is actually part of the magnificent power -- that of one.

Bomshel sings The Power Of One on the Evan Almighty album. A very inspirational song. 

 

The Right-Lucky-Track of a Goodnight Kiss

It's always "the goodnight kiss" that makes the night memorable. Perhaps, the initializing of the kiss is the goal for a "home-run" -- or, maybe for taking things slow-and-easy. The kiss can signify an open-door to bigger things. If you're lucky enough to get to the kissing-part of the night, then you are on the right-lucky-track. 

Randy Houser sings Goodnight Kiss on his "How Country Feels" album. A great song, about where it all begins...

  
Thomson Square sings  Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not on the "Thompson Square" album. The question is quite direct. It's like: Are we gonna turn-the-key and start this thing-up -- or what?

 

Calling Your Sweetie "Baby" Can Be an Affectionate Reward After a Hard Day

Jason Aldean sings (live) "When She Says Baby" -- which is a song about when someone has a hectic day and his sweetie calls him "Baby". It's just the perfect moment to surrender all of his troubles and embrace the affectionate endearing moment, when he knows that someone has faith and tender affection for him.

 

"American Soldier" -- Toby Keith Sings a Breathtaking Tribute

Toby Keith songs "American Soldier" with such profound pride, and his tribute to our American soldiers who dedicate their lives to fighting for our freedom is breathtaking. In the video, the visual story glimpse about the life of a soldier, along with Toby's proud vocals, reminds us that we should not take for granted our freedom, because it does not come free.

Just Sing "Done" -- The Band Perry Offers a Great Relationship Courtailing Song

It looks like The Band Perry does "Done" with absolute convincing conviction. This playful play of a make-believe battle of conflict is a great demonstration of when one fights a battle of unfair treatment/dysfunction and comes to the adamant conclusion, that he or she is fed-up with and "done" with the relationship. The performance is playfully upbeat, yet the song offers a great serious message. It's a great song, for a subtle, yet, to-the-point break-up. Would you not agree?

Also -- Lots of similes go with describing a liar. The Band Perry perform "You Lie" which describes with many similes, a liar who is due a good-bye "done" for his lying ways. It's a relative song, for deserving to be "done" with a relationship.  

 

Miranda Sings About Owning a Broken Heart

Miranda Lambert sings "Mama's Broken Heart" -- a song about heartbreak and saving-face. Miranda sings about how she owns the broken heart, and not her mama; (in 'make-believe' speaking.) The contrasts of glamour and dysfunction, are what make the video and (make-believe) situation fun. Apparently, Miranda lets her hair down and unwinds, to relieve the tension of keeping-up appearances, in the make-believe scene of the video below.

 

The Perfectly Desirable Gal -- David Nail Sings and Nails It

David Nail, nails perfection, when he sings "Whatever She's Got" -- A song about the little complicated gal, who has everything that everyone wants. Her red toenails, painted-on jeans and ever changing mood ring has eyes all-on-her, as an awesome model of desire.

Eric Paslay sings "Friday Night" in the most upbeat powerful way. The momentum of the song, is one that invigorates and is so refreshing, with it's metaphors about wanting to be all things pleasant and desirable to a person.
