Hunter Hayes “Wanted” Video

Hunter Hayes’ New Video Is As Sweet As The Song.” Hunter Hayes‘ recent single “Wanted” from his 2011 self-titled album release is a very sweet and honest song, and now it has an equally lovely video to go along with it. I am pretty sure that country girls everywhere are swooning over this talented young singer, and after they see this video, they may need a friend to scape them off the floor after feinting from adorable-cute-boy-overload. Besides his swoon-worthiness, Hayes has a really authentic sound and a very accessible quality. In his music, it really seems like he is putting it all out there (risky for seasoned industry veterans and even more so for the newbies), and I think this vulnerability will help him get and keep a loyal fan base! Check out the video below and see what you think! Hunter Hayes, “Wanted” Get More: Wanted, Hunter Hayes, Hunter Hayes Videos
