BRAD PAISLEY: The Pictures Music Paints For You

Brad Paisley‘s latest hit “Last Time For Everything” is connecting with fans, because listeners can clearly picture many of the “last things” that Brad sings about. The country super star is known for making hit songs, but some of the magic in his music is that they have a real visual element to them while listening. Brad says this is something he works on, “I write very visually. My idea of country music is always about the pictures it paints for you. I don’t like songs that don’t give me images in my mind — in country music, that is. Even in pop music. You think about great pop songs that you love, sometimes you don’t always know what they mean, but there’s some great words in there. ‘Hotel California’ is a good example. I don’t know totally what that’s about, but you know, ‘On a dark desert highway, cool…,’ you know, it’s just…you see everything they’re sayin’.” To add to your visual appreciation of “Last Time For Everything,” you can see the video HERE
