Jamey Johnson is a great artist (FYI “That Lonesome Song” is off of iTunes and now the radio version for “In Color” is available to download).

I would actually have liked to see a little more emotion out of Jamey in the video… it seems like even when the song reaches its peak, Jamey’s emotions are the same… theres no build-up.

Not a bad video though… pretty predictable, but it delivers.

I like the Jamey Johnson video. I think it fits the song really well without being over the top. I hadn’t heard of Jamey until the song was reviewed on here and now the video made me even more interested in his music.

I don’t want to sound stupid here, but wasn’t Jamey off a label for a while? But I’m totally diggin’ the ZZ Top look. I like his back to country’s roots Hank Jr.-ish style. Probably not the most commercially successful way to go, but a great way to go none the less! I’d say I’d buy the CD, but I need that money right now.

Who’s complaining about cell phones? If you’re good, people pay attention - if they think you’re awful, they don’t. Enough people sending that cell phone pic around is good viral marketing in my opinion. I don’t actually own a cell phone, I’m ridiculously behind the times, I know.

That little guy is definitely going to get real braids like that one day, I can just tell. The next Willie? Any predictions?

Social Distortion… in country!? Don’t make me cry.

Love the tribute. The awesome thing about that song, automatic cheers during the first line no matter what. There’s still nobody that can get that cool Sinatra-esque sound to the voice though.

I remember the first time I heard In Color and I like the video a lot — and I have never been a big fan of his but this song is turning me his direction….

Shaun Silva (the lucky guy who married Shannon Brown) did a really nice job with that video. The wave of color effect was really cool. Jamey is a fine “real country” artist who obviously doesn’t target songs for radio and instead just writes the best songs he can. There were times when mainstream country radio appreciated such talent and traditional styles, but not so much these days. “In Color” is currently at the # 43 position on the Mediabase 24/7 country singles chart, so it will be interesting to see how well it does. Its not pop-y and rock-y and shallow, so its got a real uphill climb ahead at Top 40 country radio..

I wonder if a YouTube video will show up of Sarah Buxton and Keith Urban doing the duet on “Stupid Boy” at the fundraiser concert? I was hoping to see that during the ACM show……

Favorite comment from the ACM New Star Showcase review regarding Taylor Swift: “Swift’s star qualities are more about her sparkling stage presence and the way the crowd responds to her.”
That’s a nice way of saying she can’t sing very well.
