CHRIS YOUNG: Yellow Cats and Purple Bunnies

audio

Singing along at a concert can be great fun, but if you get close enough to make eye contact with your favorite artist, Chris Young knows from experience that sometimes the words to your favorite song just don’t seem to come out quite right! (AUDIO INFO BELOW)

  • We asked Chris Young if he’s ever had the reverse happen — where he started singing the wrong words, and he smiled and said… (AUDIO INFO BELOW)
  • Chris is on tour now with Brad Paisley! Check out upcoming tour dates on ChrisYoungCountry.com!
  • “Aw Naw” is the first single from Chris’ upcoming album, titled A.M., set for release on September 17th! You can pre-order your copy, right here, on Amazon!

audio  Chris Young says he’s seen it happen where making eye contact with a fan singing along will completely throw them off track. (:31)
“All the time. Constantly. You know, I mean, ‘Aw Naw’ is a great example of that. But it’s newer, and so people don’t really know the words, but my favorite thing is when I look down, and I see somebody singin’, and you make eye contact with ’em, and it’s like it messes up their entire world, and they just start, like, mouthing gibberish. They were singing the lyrics to the song like five seconds before that, and now you’re lookin’ at ’em, and you have no…they’re like ‘yellow cats and purple bunnies.’ They have no idea what they’re sayin’, and it’s hilarious ’cause then they get really embarrassed. And it’s totally happened to me a lot, yeah.”

audio  Chris Young says that the reverse hasn’t happened…at least not yet! (:07)
“No, but thanks for jinxing me! Now that will totally happen this summer. I will make eye contact with someone and mess up the words to my own song. It’s gonna happen.”
