Brad Paisley Has "American Saturday Night" Fever

Posted: December 17th, 2009 at 6:00 pm  |  By: Chris Parton  

Brad Paisley's latest video is a mash-up of different film-making styles, much like the song he sings is about a mash-up of different cultures. "American Saturday Night" takes place in an animated cityscape, but it's filled with real people -- sort of. Paisley, along with best buddy and comedic muse Little Jimmy Dickens, takes viewers on a 2D trip from Holstein country all the way to Chinatown. Featuring a street fair and a toga party, the video shows that no matter where a tradition comes from, once it gets here, we'll find a way to make use of it.

    Why isn’t the more music and less sit coms on this channel.
    We enjoyed the music. We have other channels to watch the other programs

    Yes he is the industry darling, they give him all the love, number ones, awards but HE CAN’t seem to sell the big numbers in albums, why is that?

    Me, I’m with you! This song sounds like he wasn’t finished with Welcome to the Future and just continued on with American Saturday Night! Just don’t get him or his music. Don’t mean to be ugly but Brad is just downright boring to me. His singing and playing. He seems like a nice guy, but I just don’t click with him.

    Maybe if he sang with Taylor Swift he would be popular. Not as popular as Taylor tho!

    Hi Granna! How have you been?

    I love Brad’s writing skills. When I hear one of his songs, it is so clever. It is usually about something right under our noses, and the way he puts his lyrics together is so witty. But I agree. The tunes are starting to sound the same. But the writing is awesome!
