Meteorologist Tears Up During Hurricane Milton Weather Update

This made me cry, too.

As we all know by now, Hurrican Milton is now a Category 5 Hurricane off the Gulf of Mexico, and is expected to make landfall on Florida’s coast this Wednesday morning. This couldn’t come at a worse time, considering what just happened with Hurricane Helene on the East Coast.

Here’s the current trajectory as of right now:

This is about to get real, again.

Is Mother Nature going through menopause or what?

Earlier today, NBC 6 Meteorologist John Morales did an update on the current Milton situation, and he got quite emotional over it, and understandably so.

I totally teared up watching this:


Can you imagine?

Or maybe you can, if you’re in the path.

If so, please evacuate, or at the very, very least, take every. single. precaution.

I can’t stress this enough.

If the meteorologist is that affected, then, it really is serious.

Thinking of all my friends and family in the trajectory of this storm.

Sending my prayers to you all.

Please, be safe.

Chappell Roan Covers Heart’s “Barracuda” in Concert

Chappell Roan is everywhere this year, as she should be.

She burst onto the scene earlier this year with her smash hit “Good Luck, Babe” which is catchy as HELL, and now is heating up the charts with her new single “HOT TO GO”. I absolutely love her music, which is described as “Dark Pop” by some, and her talent is really impressive. If you go down the rabbit hole and check out videos of her before she became famous, trust me, you will be hella impressed.

In the meantime, prepare to be impressed by Chappell Roan’s recent cover of one of her favorite songs- the iconic Heart track from the late 70’s “Barracuda”:

Um, HELLO!

I love how Chappell Roan made it her own, and didn’t try to be exactly like the original. Which is hard for ANYONE to do, as Anne Wilson of Heart is next freaking level vocally.

And let’s talk about her band- some amazingly women are on this stage. I absolutely love seeing this!

Chappell Roan is just getting started… although she says she may quit eventually as fame isn’t really for her. (Can’t blame her there… being famous sounds fun for maybe five minutes, then it sounds horrific.)

That being said, you might want to catch her before she bails… she seems like she puts on one hell of a show.

Jamey Johnson “Someday When I’m Old”

Jamey Johnson is back, and it’s a damn beautiful thing.

If you remember, Jamey had a massive hit in the late 2000’s with “In Color” off of his album “That Lonesome Song”, and was pretty much everywhere for a minute.

Ok, I have to flex for a second- I got to meet him back in 2009 in Valdosta, GA, and I swear the guy doens’t smile, no matter how hard I tried to make it happen:

After the success of “That Lonesome Song”, Jamey kind of laid low for about a decade and some change, but now he’s back!

He’s with Warner Music Nashville and just dropped a new song called “When I’m Old” and it’s pure Jamey Johnson:


Now, that’s what I’m talking about.

I’m hoping that he has a new album coming, which would make sense, as he’s with a new label.

It’s been 14 years since he put out a solo album, and it’s about damn time.

Jamey is a true Country artist, and the industry needs more of this.

Fingers crossed on an album announcement soon!

Ella Langley “weren’t for the wind”

Ella Langely is one of the brightest new stars in Country Music, and after the success of her duet with Riley Green “You Look Like You Love Me”, she released a new single called “weren’t for the wind”, and it’s damn good.

I just love her sound.


Freaking good, right?

Country Music needs more of her.

I think she may be my new girl crush.

Ella will be releasing a deluxe version of her debut album “Still Hungover” on November 1st, and I feel like we will be hearing a lot more from her in the future.

Good.

George Strait “Enter Sandman”?

Somehow I missed this gem when it came out a couple of weeks ago… but in case you haven’t seen it yet, I’m about to make your whole day.

There is this creator called “There, I Ruined It”, and they use AI to basically re-do songs. There’s been a lot of controversy about this creator and others of the like, espeically about the use of AI, but honestly? I think it’s just entertaining and hilarious.

Case in point:

George Strait covering Metallica?

Yet, somehow it works, and really, how amazing would it be to have George himself do a full-version?

Come on universe, make it happen.

Nate Smith and Avril Lavigne “Can You Die From a Broken Heart”

Well, this was an unexpected treat.

Country star Nate Smith has teamed up with Punk/Pop superstar Avril Lavigne for one hell of a duet called “Can You Die From a Broken Heart”.

It’s freaking fantastic.

No, really, both have incredible voices that soar over over the notes, and the melody of the song is beautiful.


Yep, I love it!

I knew something was brewing when the two were seen together in Nashville last year.  I was hoping for a collab, and here we are!

Also, Avril’s voice is still badass.

“Can You Die From a Broken Heart” is off of Nate Smith’s new album “California Gold” out Friday.

Kelly Clarkson Covers “My Heart Will Go On”

The “Kelly Clarkson Show” is back for it’s 6th Season on NBC, which means… MORE KELLYOKE!!!

I live for Kellyoke. Seriously, there is NOTHING this woman can’t sing.

Case in point:

Ok, that is one ridiculously hard song to sing.

Celine Dion is one of the most talented vocalists out there, and Kelly Clarkson just proved that she is right up there with her. I love the extra “oomph” that her voice adds to the song.

Also, how awesome does she look?

Go. Girl.

Stay tuned for more gems with Kellyoke on the “Kelly Clarkson Show”- weekdays on NBC.

Brooks and Dunn and Lainey Wilson “Play Something Country”

Well, this was just necessary.

Brooks and Dunn AND Lainey Wilson together?

All the YES right there.

Back in 2019, Brooks and Dunn released their “Reboot” album, where they re-imagined some of their greatest hits with some of Country’s biggest stars. Well, they have another similar project in the works called “Reboot 2”, featuring everyone from Lainey Wilson to Morgan Wallen to rock band Halestorm.

You’re excited right?

Because you should be.

And, to get us ready, Brooks and Dunn and Lainey Wilson just dropped their version of “Play Something Country”, and of course, it totally works:


Yep, that checks out, for sure.

Brooks and Dunn’s “Reboot 2” album will be out November 15th, and you can get more info at https://www.brooks-dunn.com/

Cody Johnson and Carrie Underwood “I’m Gonna Love You”

Country Star Cody Johnson just released a collab with vocal powerhouse Carrie Underwood, and of course, it’s lovely.

The song is called “I’m Gonna Love You”, and it’s just a pure, simple love song:


I have a feeling tha this is going to be a wedding playlist staple…

My family has a wedding venue in West Tennessee called Cogan’s Farm – http://Cogansfarm.com– so check it out!

That’s why I always have weddings on the brain.

Ok, shameless plug aside, is the song anything gorundbreaking?

No. But it doesn’t have to be.

When you have two talents like Cody and Carrie, sometimes keeping it simple and letting the vocals and emotion shine is enough.

In addition, Cody Johnson announced the deluxe version of his latest album “Leather” featuring 13 new songs on November 1st. And in case you weren’t aware, Cody Johnson live is definitely something to see- get tour dates at https://apps.codyjohnsonmusic.com/leather/ and you can catch Carrie Underwood in Vegas with her “Reflections” residency: https://www.carrieunderwoodofficial.com/
