I'm back with my weekly Tuesday Tunes Day and this week is someone who is LITERALLY dancing away with my heart (Lame. I know.) I'm sure as most of you are aware, I am a Twitter FREAK, and this can be (sometimes) the way I find my new music. But unfortunately for you, I can't reveal all my tactics. Anyway, I tend to follow my "acoustic boys" and their fellow music mates to see what they're up to and to see if I can find anything I like. But recently, I've become kind of a big deal (pause for applause). You see.....instead of ME finding them, THEY'VE been finding me. It's really social media marketing at its finest. And to be honest with you, it gets my entrepreneurial juices flowin' through the roof! Ew. (Joe George would be so proud.)
Anywho, this week's videos are by a guy named Brett Young. He requested to follow me a couple weeks ago and asked that I listen to his music. So naturally, I did. Duh. (I'll have you know, though, that I listen to their music BEFORE I let them follow me. I can't just have any old hat thinking he's the bomb.com.) What got me excited about Brett, though, is that he's played with a lot of my acoustic boys! Jason Reeves, Tyrone Wells, Tyler Hilton, just to name a few.... Also, come to find out, Brett played baseball in college until he had a career-ending injury. Now I know I don't have to tell you how I feel about this......
ANYWAY......Brett is great! So is Katie Ohh who sings with him on a couple songs. They did a remake of Lady Antebellum's "Dancing Away With My Heart," and dare I might say I actually like it BETTER than Lady A's version (sorry guys). I've probably listened to it a hundred times by now and it still gives me goose bumps. So, for today, you get one of Brett's "unreleased" songs AND his version of "Dancing Away With My Heart" with Katie Ohh. You can find Brett's new acoustic album on iTunes, and since I love you all so much, I of course gave you the link ;)
ENJOY MY DEARS!

This is the link to my favorite song of Brett's on iTunes, it's called "In Love Alone."
You should also check out "Someday."
Okay I'm done.
Lyrics for "In Love Alone"(Because I love them so much):
You've been doing fine
You're getting on with life
And making sure that I
Can't get inside your mind
'Cause nothing can be gained by living in yesterday
But I'm falling apart
I'm lying in the dark and wondering how to start
To mend a broken heart
'Cause everything was lost the day you went away, yeah
Now there's nothing left that's real
I've forgotten how to feel
When I'm outside of your arms
Because you're all I've ever known
But you've been moving on
And remaining strong
It's like you're happy on your own
I guess I'll be in love alone
There's nobody to blame
If love is just a game and you refuse to play
I guess I'll be okay
'Cause life will still go on
Even when you're gone, yeah
But you're everything to me
You change the way I breathe
You're all that I can see
And if it's meant to be
This love that I still keep will bring you back to me, yeah
Now there's nothing left that's real
And I've forgotten how to feel
When I'm outside of your arms
Because you're all I've ever known
But you've been moving on
And remaining strong
It's like you're happy on your own
I guess I'll be in love alone
I'm sorry if I gave too much
'Cause you told me from the start
That you didn't plan
To fall in love
Ohhh
Now there's nothing left that's real
I've forgotten how to feel
When I'm outside of your arms
Because you're all I've ever known
But you've been moving on
And remaining strong
It's like you're happy on your own
I guess I'll be in love alone
In love alone
In love alone
In love alone
