Yes, they were the PRIME years! SO many great COUNTRY songs back then. Thankfully, enough for me to watch and listen to on UA-cam before I die. It has been YEARS since I turned on so called country radio.
Funny video shame he never got recognised until "amazed" came out. He was good enough as he was. Same with Trisha Yearwood and Shania Twain good country singer's have to be commercialised why?
The music was good.. really wasnt country.. Country music was changing in the late 80's.. not all but alot.. alot of what people call country is nothing but pop with a cowboy hat or cowboy boots..
@@jerrymoadj.r.1911 they sold out?! Haha right…. They never sold out. Tf are you talking about. Big and Rich was corn sold out sh*t if I ever heard any. John Rich went on Celeb Apprentice. That’s the ultimate selling out to do reality tv.
@@austinprice3382he wrote their hit, Come Cryin’ To Me, along with hits for other people like Red Neck Woman and All Jacked Up, for Gretchen Wilson, Faith Hill’s monster hit, Mississippi Girl, along with many others. I hesitate to point out he wrote, Save a Horse Ride a Cowboy, for Big and Rich, since it is a terrible song.
This song will always be my father. We use to listen to a lot of country music together. He always told me he liked this song. Whenever I hear it I'm 12 again.
I love this song! I'm an old Texas fart and this is right in my wheelhouse for favorite country!!!! I did the polka many a night and many laps around the dance floor of the beer joints in my town to this back in the day!!!!
This is awesome right here. I definitely miss the original era of this band and so on. Here is the history behind it. This was way back in the mid-1990s when Lonestar were dressed in their cowboy suits and when they were performing neotraditional country music. During those times in the 1990s, Lonestar had two lead vocalists in the band which included Richie McDonald and John Rich. From 1995 to 1997, Lonestar had recorded their first two studio albums in the neotraditional country music style with Richie McDonald and John Rich alternating on lead vocals. Here is the thing. It was not the Lonestar band's fault that John Rich had left in 1998. Basically, Richie McDonald and John Rich had wanted to be become another Brooks & Dunn by having two lead singers in the band but the problem was that their record label did not want any of that and it simply didn't work out in the end. Shortly after the release of their 1998 single called "Everything's Changed", John Rich had to leave the band as they and their advisors felt that having two lead singers would be confusing to fans. Ever since John Rich had departed from the band never to return again, the other four band members began performing unplugged shows which included acoustic renditions of their songs. Lonestar had also expressed a desire to reinvent their sound as the record label had wanted them to go in a new different direction so they decided to take off their cowboy hats as well as suits in order for them to put on their regular clothes and they started performing a whole new country music that were being mixed with the elements of pop, rock and adult contemporary genres. That was how their third studio album titled Lonely Grill from 1999 was created as it was their first studio album to have that new crossover friendly country pop sound which was a huge departure from their earlier neotraditional country music sound. Instead of replacing John Rich with a new band member, Lonestar had hired several session bassists to play the third studio album's bass parts. Lonestar had went on to have further success with their hits such as "Amazed", "I'm Already There" and so on. Meanwhile, John Rich had briefly charted with two solo singles for BNA Records label from 2000 to 2001 and recorded a studio album that was never released until 2006 but he began performing with Big Kenny in 2003 as a new country music duo called Big & Rich. Otherwise, both Lonestar and John Rich became successful however different it may have seemed since they both went in totally different directions in the country music industry. So that is the history behind Lonestar and that is that. This was way back in the good old days when country music was still country music and so forth. I miss the 1990s as well as the good old traditional country music.
This is my favorite country song by Lonestar!! 😘 I even have the CD with this song on it!!!! Great CD 👌😉. I love these guys, and the big cowboy hats, makes me want to say Yee- haw!!!! Then try to line dance to this song!!! Take care of yourself and your family during this coronovirus pandemic 😷 ok. Much love from Bunn NC 💖👋
@@Galaxy2517 Lol, I know we are both replying to a 10 year old comment, but I think I may share your same sentiment on it. "The stories that woman has, haha"... yeah, so funny (not).
My favorite band ur awesome and Amazing sing them favorite songs to this little country cowgirl always take care Always & band Always This Little Country Cowgirl always & my Momas favorite Good Old Country Music Always ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤#Damn Strait ❤❤❤❤
i bought the album in the uk cause i loved the AMAZED song!!! when listening to the album i loved every song, these guy's didn't have enough advertisement over here! ther fab xx
Song is still awesome. Back in the 90s when this song came out, Eagle 97 in Va. Beach made a remix with an operator saying “the number I have dialed is no longer in service, it doesn’t work”. I wish I’d could get my hands on that recording
To my surprise this was available on a vinyl 45 which few were by 1995. I was delighted since i'm a vinyl collector. Love that old bus !!! My first job from 1972-78 was a non driving job at our company and many of those were still in the fleet then. The bus there looks great and well preserved and not destroyed to make an RV out of it.
This song was catchy. "Playing guitar with the band" was used in this video and on the radio in place of "ran off with the Klan". I didn't know that until I downloaded the song from Napster years later.
This was their first music video, and it was directed by Deaton-Flanigen Productions. It premiered on CMT on November 11, 1995, as their "Hot Shot Video of the Week". A portion of their debut single "Tequila Talkin'" (1995) was played at the beginning of the video. A woman leaves her house, and rides on a bus to nowhere. She took off her glasses to become a beautiful woman, and dances around the bus. The bus overheats, and it breaks down. A Boss Hogg-like character drives a Cadillac, and a woman hitches for a ride. The license plate read "NO NEWS".🙂
saw them in concert here in chattanooga tn last year. very good show. it took them a set to get it together, but then everyone has an off night now and then.
Takes me back to '96-'97 when Country Music was actually.....Country Music
Can't forget the 80's and early 90's
Yes, they were the PRIME years! SO many great COUNTRY songs back then. Thankfully, enough for me to watch and listen to on UA-cam before I die. It has been YEARS since I turned on so called country radio.
LockrowRacing Daytona.. gotta love Nascar (your UA-cam image)
LockrowRacing I
Yea wtf happened to country music cuz that shit thats out now aint country.country crap maybe
This is the kinda song you can listen to 100 times and not get tired of it
Funny video shame he never got recognised until "amazed" came out. He was good enough as he was. Same with Trisha Yearwood and Shania Twain good country singer's have to be commercialised why?
Yes back when country was still country. The good time feeling of this song makes it even better.
agreed
Story of my life. This song made me. But made him also.
@@susanmaynard8652 leave that boy alone/ ur interest
90’s nostalgia is hitting me hard.. Somewhere between 16 and 18 when this song came out. I’m 47 now.. Good times and good memories
I had such a crush on that beautiful girl in that video but now she’s probably in her 40’s.
@@kennethhall289lol 55+
90s music was the best. Had heart soul passion and the musicianship was amazing. I miss the 90s
This song makes me wish I could teleport back to the 90s when country music was awesome!
The music was good.. really wasnt country.. Country music was changing in the late 80's.. not all but alot.. alot of what people call country is nothing but pop with a cowboy hat or cowboy boots..
ME 222222222222222222222222222222
It took me 2 hours go find this song 🙏🙏 someone sang it at kareoke night in a cruise ‼️‼️😼😼
1990s Country...🔥🔥🎵🎵
This song is 25 years old, and it still sounds good! Too bad bassist John Rich and vocalist Richie McDonald couldn't get along.
They sold out John rich never did that's why he left
Yeh, I fell into this song by accident watching CMT on Foxtel
@@jerrymoadj.r.1911 they sold out?! Haha right…. They never sold out. Tf are you talking about. Big and Rich was corn sold out sh*t if I ever heard any. John Rich went on Celeb Apprentice. That’s the ultimate selling out to do reality tv.

Who's listening in 2024?
Me !!
Bro I randomly decided to watch the music video of one of my fav cds
I remember watching this on CMT in the 90s. Lost it for awhile and happened on it again.
Was on the radio today in DFW. 🤙 90's for labor day weekend on 96.3.
ME and Jeanne 2:42 in the morning in centralia Washington
Rarer than a unicorn, it's an ultra uncommon and even unfathomable 90's country keytar sighting!
Hitting a 90's bender tonight cause i needed the good stuff playing
I'm from the future. Same
The best song by them hands down
Definitely! I LOVE this song so much. Brilliant lyrics.
Violet Miller EVERYTHING'S CHANGED has to be mine!! This song is awesome too!! 👍
I'm Already There.
I agree, Andrea, but right behind
it on it's heels is "Mr. Mom".
Mountains an amazed
Country from 70’s-to early 2000’s was the best
This song will always be my father. We use to listen to a lot of country music together. He always told me he liked this song. Whenever I hear it I'm 12 again.
Michelle Gleason I was 12 when it came out too!
Need a new " daddy"
Still love it. Till this day.
No news great to me too
Fact : John Rich from Big & Rich played bass for Lonestar and is on this video of you look closely.
This is my all-time favorite song from Lonestar
I love 90's country. This is great song!

Still know this song word for word 😊
Was listening to “Tequila talkin” and this gem popped up. Gotta love 90s country videos

I love this band and I like their style. I like the guy's voice. I like the sound they play original songs. Love the beat. Its just good music.
That beat is John rich from big and rich
@@jerrymoadj.r.1911 I just learned today that was John playing bass! He also did the lead vocals for Heartbroke Every Day! I had no idea!
Yea almost 30 years ago lol
Joe Diffie to me was and still is one of the best in country music. He is a legend and his music will live on forever.
To me this IS country...good memories!
My daughter loved this song when she was 4 yrs old now she's 30
I'm STILL listening 🎵 to Lonestar.....lovin' this song!!!
The lyrics to this song, Awesome !
Such a great groove. I remember my mom would always come to the living room to catch this one when it’d play on CMT.

Exactly. Back in the 80s and 90s. That's when a lot of the good stuff was out. Not just country music. But. Also in different generes of music.
the look the bus driver gives is priceless

This is country music!
Yeah . He can "smell " that groove!
I was five when this song came out. Still LOVE it even 21 years later
Good music doesn't go bad
Awesome song! Lonestar was the best with Richie McDonald as its lead singer, it's just not the same anymore without you brother...
How many times have you seem a keytar in a country music video?
I took a Greyhound once. And it wasn't anywhere near this entertaining.
al d me too. It sucked.
Good one.😀👍👍
al d 0:01-2:59 trust my son?

Agreed
No news brought me back 12/28/23
80s pop became 90s country and it was an awesome time.
Bring these days back!!!
I loved this video growing up
Dang back when country music kicked ass
How many caught John Rich playing BASS?
Country music is still awesome
I love southern states!
90s country was the best 👍
2024 still rolling

Saw LONESTAR on 3/27/2021 in Macon, GA at the Cherry Blossom Festival and they freaking rocked. They still got after all these years.
One of my fav country groups growing up & still is
John rich made this group
Takes me back to the future 1996/1997 when Country Music was actually best song by them
This is my favorite country song by Lonestar!! 😘 I even have the CD with this song on it!!!! Great CD 👌😉. I love these guys, and the big cowboy hats, makes me want to say Yee- haw!!!! Then try to line dance to this song!!! Take care of yourself and your family during this coronovirus pandemic 😷 ok. Much love from Bunn NC 💖👋
I have always loved this song.
as a huge fan of country music I'm disappointed in myself that I didn't realize John Rich from Big and Rich was part of Lonestar.. lol
OMG! Really? I saw them in concert once. I guess John didn't like Richie being the front man. lol
I just looked them up, and sure enough, it was John Rich. I never even thought about that till I saw him playing Bass.
That pencil mustache threw me off.
I'm just astonished by this
Ferfer870 silly😛
I like all Lone Stars songs , my favorites r no news , amazed, smile,, tell her
Oh man, this is such a great song. Love it!
Ooooo she could telephone 📞
A great band, very underrated, Just the Tequila Talkin!!!
The last of the great country bands of the 90s before country went down the toilet
I love the song no news
I love this song! Reminds me of my Mom, she pulled this off when she was in her early 20's. Oh the stories that woman has haha.
So I have to ask why is ok for women to just do this? God forbid a man to just up and chase some wild oats 😳
@@Galaxy2517 Lol, I know we are both replying to a 10 year old comment, but I think I may share your same sentiment on it. "The stories that woman has, haha"... yeah, so funny (not).
Necroing this to say that the woman in this video is not hte kind of woman I would want my mom to have been in her past.
My favorite band ur awesome and Amazing sing them favorite songs to this little country cowgirl always take care Always & band Always This Little Country Cowgirl always & my Momas favorite Good Old Country Music Always ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤#Damn Strait ❤❤❤❤

The harmony.......... as good as the Eagles. Impeccable
This song makes me feel better about all times I’ve been left on read.
They are coming to Rice Lake Wisconsin this June 13th for the Rice Lake Aquafest. Only 20 dollars for everybody.
Song is still awesome. Back in the 90s when this song came out, Eagle 97 in Va. Beach made a remix with an operator saying “the number I have dialed is no longer in service, it doesn’t work”. I wish I’d could get my hands on that recording
Great Song...
And just like that.... Back to '98 senior in high school goes my mind. Sure miss the 90's.
My mom listens to it all the time now I'm hooked on these songs
This is when country music was awesome. Not saying the music now isn't great but it will never be like the 90s. Yehaw
To my surprise this was available on a vinyl 45 which few were by 1995. I was delighted since i'm a vinyl collector.
Love that old bus !!! My first job from 1972-78 was a non driving job at our company and many of those were still in the fleet then. The bus there looks great and well preserved and not destroyed to make an RV out of it.
Soon as this song became a hit they changed the lyric "joined the cult joined the klan" to "playing guitar with the band".
I Love that song & Vitio
This song was catchy. "Playing guitar with the band" was used in this video and on the radio in place of "ran off with the Klan". I didn't know that until I downloaded the song from Napster years later.
"Joined the cult, joined the Klan, on the road with Pearl Jam"
I was only 7 years old when this came out!
@Tim Mcgraw Newnan Ga, same as Alan Jackson!
@Tim Mcgraw And may I say what an honor it is to be chatting with you, I also enjoy your music !
@Tim Mcgraw since I was around 6 years old, I'll be 35 this year
@Tim Mcgraw I'm also a fan of Faith Hill!
Coolest song they ever did.....................
Luv that John Rich got his start with Lonestar ❤❤
Ole John Rich rocking the bass before they fired him. Glad things worked out best for both party's.
he was a jerk.
May our Lord lend his healing hand upon you. My prayers are with you and your family.🙏
