Kelly Clarkson Gets Country with Shania Twain Cover

Kelly Clarkson Covers Shania Twain at Canadian Concert. At a recent concert in Ontario, Canada Kelly Clarkson got a little country on stage with a fan requested Shania Twain song! The we-just-wish-she-would-give-us-a-full-country-album American Idol alum sang a perfect rendition of Shania’s now classic, “You’re Still The One“. There is quite a bit of twang going on in Ms. Clarkson’s accents in this video…really think she’d have a nice comfy home in country music (It’s not a stretch and you know it! Jason Aldean duet, anyone? Reba McEntire duet, hello?). Anyway, country or not, Kelly rocks it as usual. Check it out below! Kelly Clarkson Sings Shania Twain’s “You’re Still The One“.

Toby Keith Stops By The Ellen Degeneres Show to Perform “Red Solo Cup“. Well, Toby Keith popped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show last week to perform his party -anthem-beer-holdin’-ode-hit, “Red Solo Cup“! I know you’ve heard this song and I know you love it!

Jason Aldean “Fly Over States” Video

Jason Aldean New Video of “Fly Over States”. Jason Aldean is giving fans a new video! This time it’s for the his latest single “Fly Over States“. It’s an interesting tune that features a perspective on small town American from the POV of two average guys that probably just haven’t ever driven down those ole’ dirt roads. It’s a much slower and reflective song than some of the other singles on his 2011 CMA Album of the Year Award winning My Kinda Party, and I like it because its a lot subtler than the usual city folk vs country folk lyrics we get sometimes. Can I also say, that I could listen to Aldean saying “Oklahoma” all day long…there’s just something about it! This video shares a director, Wes Edwards, with Jason’s ACM Video of the Year nominated “Tattoos On This Town” video, and I think you’ll see the similarities! Check the video out, and see what you think! Are you a fan of this song? Watch Jason Aldean’s “Fly Over States”. Get More: Fly Over States, Jason Aldean, Jason Aldean Videos
