Brantley Gilbert You Don’t Know Her Like I Do Video

Brantley Gilbert Releases Video for You Don’t Know Her Like I Do. Brantley Gilbert has released a video for “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do“. This particular track comes off of the deluxe edition of Gilbert’s September release, Halfway to Heaven. It is one of three additional tracks you won’t find on the original version of the album. The video for the track seems to actually use a lot of the same footage you see in the live version of his “Country Must Be Country Wide” video. Most likely, they just pulled footage from the same concert. Regardless, Gilbert’s fans are some of the most loyal around, and they will probably not care about a little repeat footage. It’s a quality song, and worth taking a look at, even if you haven’t jump on Brantley train yet! You can watch it below. Check out the video for “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do” Now!

Toby Keith’s Red Solo Cup: The Glee Version

Toby Keith’s Red Solo Cup Gets A Glee Make-over. Well, we told you a couple weeks ago that the popular teen musical dramedy, Glee, had picked up Toby Keith‘s new single “Red Solo Cup” to feature in an upcoming episode. As a Glee fan (and clearly a country music fan), I was definitely intrigued. The Glee-ified rendition of Keith’s light-hearted tune is amusing, but I don’t know if it does the song justice. I am not suggesting that Toby’s new song is on its way to becoming a country classic, and I don’t think he even intended for it to be. Its clearly a fun, goof-off song, and I don’t think the Glee version is really all that fun. So, I’m a little let down. As usual though, no need to take my word for it. Check it out below, and let us know what you think! How do you feel about Toby’s song being co-opted by the popular series? Watch the Glee-ified “Red Solo Cup” Here.

Lauren Alaina White House Performances

Lauren Alaina Performs Classic Country At Special Country Music: In Performance at the White House. Lauren Alaina has been on the country scene for less than a year and has already made huge strides as a performer. Granted, as Season 10 runner-up, she is heavily backed by the media giants behind American Idol, but it is impossible to deny that she has a wealth of talent. Another stand-out trait the 16-year old possesses is a surprising amount of grace and poise. Despite the fact that she’s a teenager, Lauren behaves like a pro at every performance or appearance. This was certainly put to the test at her recent gig on the PBS special, Country Music: In Performance at the White House, and she passed with flying colors. Not only was she performing for the President of the United States, a huge honor in and of itself, but she also held her own with some of country music’s masters, Lyle Lovett and James Taylor, and contemporary favorites, Dierks Bentley and Darius Rucker. Alaina performed a duo with Dierks Bentley of the classic “Always On My Mind” and did a solo version of Loretta Lynn‘s famous “Coal Miner’s Daughter“. You can catch videos of both performances below. With the release of her debut solo album, Wildflower, just months after her successful season on American Idol, along with with several high profile appearances and performances, it is clear that Lauren Alaina is going places and has the work ethic to get there. Check Out Lauren and Dierks Bentley As They Perform “Always On My Mind“. [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqyun1ZV4F4] Watch Lauren’s Rendition of “Coal Miner’s Daughter“.
