Rascal Flatts' Message Makes Me "Unstoppable"

Posted: March 12th, 2010 at 3:38 pm  |  By: Alison Bonaguro  

You know that George Strait song that says, "When you hear twin fiddles and a steel guitar, you're listenin' to the sound of the American heart"? Well, when I don't hear twin fiddles and a steel guitar, I think I must be listening to just another rock song. And I don't really like it. So when I first saw this Rascal Flatts video for "Unstoppable," with so much guitar and not much else, I was not a fan. But then I remembered, "Oh yeah, I love this song." So now when I watch it, I just try to let Gary LeVox' voice -- and the lyrics about being able to do the impossible, find the faith that's been lost and shaken, and having the strength to race the wind -- be all that I hear. And I know I can do that, because this song makes me feel unstoppable.

    Is this the same Alison Bonaguro who is obsessed with Taylor Swift and who thinks that Taylor is Country?

    hahaha S. Amen!

    I love this song. I love the music and I love the lyrics. The guys changed things up from the original version and the Olympics version I think, appeals to more people since it doesn’t sound so country.

    I love this song and video. Regina you sound kind of self centered. Your not better than any of us and none of us are better than you. So get over yourself.
