Video Remarkably Bad
Posted by on Thu, Jan 17 at 4:53 PM
Sometimes flipping through the channels at 4am you see remarkable things. Especially on the Country Music channel.
I saw this one last night and it opened up my skull and took a huge, horrific shit — a country music song about the internet.
“Myspace” should never, ever, under any circumstances be used as a lyric — in country music or anything else — much less as a song’s central theme. (The same goes for Cellphones, Voicemail, and any other passive aggressive crap. Oh, and Gucci. No more songs containing makers of designer hangbags.)
But that’s not all. This video features some of the crummiest wet-fart guitar wankery of recent memory, plus cameo’s from William Shatner and George Costanza’s mom. Stranger yet is the leading nerd-role. I spent the entire time wondering if in fact it was George Costanza, or some look-a-like. I’m pretty sure ol’ Georgey has a little something better than to do this video, and since he doesn’t ever take the glasses off, I’m pretty sure it aint him. Or at least, last night I was. But I aint positive.
Oh, and Paisley plays his concerts in the Matrix.
Here it is, Brad Paisley’s unmercifully terrible “Online”:
Comments
I thought it might be Jason Alexander too so I typed "Jason Alexander," "online" and "Brad Paisley" into google. The internets told me.
I know I'm not supposed to like this, but is it supposed to piss me off?
i'd be worried if it didn't piss you off
Not his best song, certainly, but Brad Paisley is far and away the best mainstream country act going these days.
He has a ton of great songs on his records. Don't suppose you've checked those out, have ya?
Anyway, when do we get some Blitzen Trapper news?

But magazines like Bitch—the intensely readable feminist quarterly—need to stick around, so show ’em some monetary support by attending this wildly eclectic show featuring Kimya Dawson (Juno soundtrack!), Mirah (K Records!), and Anomie Belle (Seattle electronica!).

Sorry Andrew! That is Jason Alexander. He also loaned Brad Paisley his talents as a director for that video. Now I have to go to the bathroom because I threw up a little bit in my mouth watching that.
