Teddy Swims “Guilty”

New Teddy Swims?

Ain’t nobody gonna be mad about that.

Teddy Swims became majorly mainstream in the past couple of years, thanks to his massive hit “Lose Control” which was (and still is) everywhere.  And he proved that he’s no one-hit wonder with more hits like “The Door” and “Bad Dreams”, which are also getting major airplay. His sound is perfect- incredible bluesy rock vocals that seem to have no limit, plus great, catchy songs that pretty much everyone can enjoy.  I always say that he’s what would happen if Chris Stapleton and Jelly Roll had a baby.

Anyhow, Teddy has a new album out called “I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2)” and here’s the new single off of it called “Guilty”:

Pretty damn good, right?

Teddy’s vocals are in another universe.

Yeah, this guy isn’t going anywhere, and that’s a good thing.

Carrie Underwood Performs “America The Beautiful” at the Presidential Inaugration FLAWLESSLY.

In case you’re under a rock or something of the like, you’re aware that today is President Donald Trump’s inaguration.

Look, I’m I’m not here to get into politics. I’m not right or left. I’m just an American. So, if you’re coming here to vent your frustrations, you came to the wrong place.

I love America, flaws and all, and will always do so no matter who is voted in as the leader.

I’m an Army wife, and I take pride in our country and know how good we have it, whether or not you approve of the Coomander-in-Chief.

That being said, Carrie Underwood was tapped to perform “America the Beautiful” at the ceremony, and despite technical issues and the backing track not playing, she immediately sang it A Cappella, and absolutely NAILED it.

Not that I’m surprised. Carrie Underwood is one of the most vocally talented singers out there, and is a total pro and class act.

My favorite part?

Everyone singing along.


Right, left, or in between… you have to admit that was impressive.

Carrie Underwood got so much flack for doing this, and I loved her public statement in response:

“I love our country and am honored to have been asked to sing at the Inauguration and to be a small part of this historic event. I am humbled to answer the call at a time when we must all come together in the spirit of unity and looking to the future.”

YES to all of that.

America first, America always.

 

“1923” Official Teaser Trailer

Season 2 of the popular “Yellowstone” prequel “1923” is coming back for Season 2 – finally!

The series- which stars Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren- is really, really freaking good.

I personally prefer it to the other “Yellowstone” prequel “1883” and maybe even to “Yellowstone” itself.

You can’t wrong with Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren, ok?

The Season 2 trailer was released last night, and it’s loks pretty damn intense:


Yep, totally ready for Season 2.

And, really, who needs Rip when you have Spencer Dutton?

Season 2 of “1923” premieres February 23rd on Paramount +.

Postmodern Jukebox Cover’s Aerosmith’s “Rag Doll” With a 1920’s Vibe!

One of my favorite things in life is Postmodern Jukebox.

They are such a talented group of musicians and vocalists, and I always love their creative takes on modern music.

I just stumbled across a recent creation of theirs which I really loved- a 1920’s Hot Jazz version of Aerosmith’s “Rag Doll” – one of my favorites from the iconic band.

And, of course, it totally works:


Pretty awesome, right?

I absolutely love this band, and ypu can go down the rabbit hole and see other great song recreations by them here: https://postmodernjukebox.com/ and on their YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCORIeT1hk6tYBuntEXsguLg

Luke Combs Debuts New Song Live in Auckland!

Luke Combs is currently on the road overseas with Jordan Davis, Mitchell Tenpenny and Lane Pittman, and they just did a stop in Auckland, New Zealand where Luke debuted a new song.

The song- which it seems is titled “Ain’t No Cowboy” – it’s a true heartbreak banger, which is what Luke does best:

@ogbunningssnag #lukecombs #jordandavis #lukecombstour #2025 #mitchelletenpenny ♬ original sound – OGBunningsSnag


Ok, Luke needs to release that, like, yesterday.

Hopefully this means new music from Luke Combs soon?

100 Songs Turning 20 in 2025

So, this is a fun game… how old can I make myself feel?

The YouTube Creator “Some Randon Guy” just released a compilation of 100 songs turning 20 this year.

2005 was 20 years ago. I feel like it was more like 7.

Time is a freaking thief.

Let’s take a stroll down memory lane to low-rise jeans, swoopy bangs, burnt CDs and RAZR phones:


That hurts deep.

Especially as I was playing some of these songs on the radio when they were first released.

Anyhow, Imma get some ibuprofen for my back and reminisce about back when with my equally old husband on the days when I really wanted to be a Pussycat Doll.

 

Goodnight.

Ernest SLAYS Cover of Kris Kristofferson’s “Help Me Make it Through the Night”

Damn.

One of my favorite newer Country artists- Ernest- dropped a rendition of the legendary Kris Kristofferson’s “Help Me Make it Through the Night” on instagram, and it’s pretty much perfection:

A post shared by ERNEST (@ernest)

I feel like “Damn” is the only appropriate word right now.

In case you’re really behind on what’s hot on the Country Music scene, Ernest is one of the best up-and-coming artists on the scene, and he runs around with Morgan Wallen and HARDY, so you know he’s in the right crowd if you want to be a hitmaker.

But also, he’s just a really nice guy, as evidenced by our interview below:

LOVE his guy, and I think we’re just scratching the surface with what he can do.

Meghan Patrick “Golden Child”

I have a feeling that 2025 is going to be Meghan Patrick’s year.

Now, Meghan, hailing from Ontario, has been on the scene for quite some time, and has been getting a lot of attention as of late for her gritty and real Country sound.

She released her album “Golden Child” back in October, and the title track has cracked the Mediabase Top 50, and I have a feeling you will be hearing a lot more of it on your radio soon.

Check out “Golden Child” below:

Pretty dang good, am I right?

Here are the full lyrics:

“If I could send a letter back in timeTo younger me in her wilder daysA daydreamer with her head in the skyAnd always learning the hard way
I bet she’d think she knows better than meBut that’s just part of her charmNah, you couldn’t tell her anythingNothing stubborn as her and her heartBut I’d tell her while you’re reaching for the stars
Just be careful what you wish for honeyYou never know it might come trueDon’t be tempted by the easy moneyIt might cost more than you’re willing to loseThe same thing that takes the edge offIt can take the shine off after a whileSo wear your diamonds on the inside‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, child
They’re gonna love you for the things you doBut not for who you areSo don’t go trading in your ride or diesFor the cool kids down at the bar
The time will come when you fall in lustAnd it’ll look like loveUntil it knocks you right down in the dustBut know that you’ll get back upYeah, know that you’re more than enough
Just be careful what you wish for honeyYou never know it might come trueDon’t be tempted by the easy moneyIt might cost more than you’re willing to lose (ah)The same thing that takes the edge offIt can take the shine off after a whileSo wear your diamonds on the inside (inside)‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, child, ooh-ooh
Just be careful what you wish for honeyYou never know it might come trueDon’t be tempted by the easy moneyIt might cost more than you’re willing to lose (ah)The same thing that takes the edge offIt can take the shine off after a whileSo wear your diamonds on the inside (inside)‘Cause everything that glitters ain’t golden, childEverything that glitters ain’t golden, child, ooh-ooh
If I could send a letter back in timeTo younger me in her wilder daysI’d let her know that she’s doing just fineAnd everything’s gonna be okay”
Songwriters: Joey Hyde / Aaron James Eshuis / Meghan Sylvia Patrick
Seriously, though, such a great song, and I can definitely relate.
Heck, I think anyone who has lived just a litle bit of life can.
As I mentioned earlier,  I have a strong feeling that 2025 is going to be her year… get ready!

 

Jimmy Fallon and Jamie Lee Curtis Recreate “Perfect” Dance Scene

This is the funniest thing you’ll see all week.

Maybe even all month.

Jamie Lee Curtis was on “The Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon this week, and they recreated the “Perfect” dance scene from the 1985 movie “Perfect” starring Jamie Lee Curtis and John Travolta.

I literally snorted my coffee when I saw this:


OMG. Nailed it!

Jamie Lee still has it, by the way.

Here’s the original scene:

So incredibly, iconically cringe.

The movie had horrible reviews, but this scene will forever live in infamy.

Also, why don’t men do aerobics and wear those fancy little oufits anymore? I feel like this needs to comeback.

Or, actually, maybe not.

Catch the “Tonight Show” weeknights on NBC.

Jimmy Fallon never fails.
