Hello and thanks for checking out my blog today! I post every day at 1pm central so subscribe if you wanna, or just stop by when you have a chance for new content daily.
It’s kind of nice that a new country music video is out that *shouldn’t* cause any controversy. In the last few weeks there was Jason Aldean’s racist video and then the gay video from Tyler Childers. At worst, Luke Bryan’s song “But I Got A Beer In My Hand” might be called predictable or shallow (it opens with lyrics about how it’s not a stereotypical country song: a breakup, rearview mirrors, feeling blue, but then it goes on to be a stereotypical country song: beer, hollering at ladies, parties). That’s just a bit of irony, I guess. What’s not ironic is that in the video, the beer Luke holds in his hand is is own brand, Two Lane. Integrated marketing at its finest, folks. Here’s the video, the scroll down for more…
Fuss in Boots. My first question after hearing the song was what the heck is a Lucchese? Luke sings a line about deer stands and Lucchese so I looked it up. If you’re a diehard Luke fan or just love country music, don’t put up a fuss about me not knowing that Lucchese is a premium boot brand. I don’t wear boots. I have big feet and the few times I’ve tried them on made my feet look like they need their own zip code!
One Take Wonder. Luke takes advantage of a very skilled film crew to pull off a 3-minute long shot in this video. Very impressive with so much coordination from cast and crew. Other artists have done this before. Check out a few that came to mind in the videos below.
Taylor Swift “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”
Anna Kendrick “Cup Song”
Randy Houser “Note To Self”
Country On. Although there’s a party going on, this is technically still a break-up song. Here are a few more playful break-up country songs along with the accompanying videos.
Brad Paisley “I’m Gonna Miss Her”
Dierks Bentley “Drunk On A Plane”
Eric Church “Cold One”
Miranda Lambert “White Liar”
Idol. Luke performed his song back a few months ago on American Idol…
Do you like the video from Luke? I think it is probably perfect timing for country fans who might want, or need, a break from the heavy subject matter in those other videos that came out recently.
See y’all tomorrow!
