Today's Pick

Lady Antebellum have just debuted a music video filmed to support "We Owned the Night," the second single from Country trio's third studio album, "Own The Night." which hits stores on next Tuesday. They provide soundtrack for the lovey-dovey couples in the video. Once again, the country act serves up a pop-crossover jam that should appeal to a variety of listeners, and will no doubt find a home on an array of radio format playlists.
The love song is sung beautifully to accompany the romance which sparks everywhere with fireworks lighting up the night. Hillary Scott explained why they named the set after this tune: "One of our favorite songs on the new record is called 'We Owned the Night,' which is about a special once-in-a-lifetime moment, and we thought that naming the album around that same sentiment was really appropriate," she said. "It's also about the experience we want to create every night in concert for our fans... together, we own the night!"
Features Charles Kelley on the lead, and he sings over the mandolin-driven tune, "We Owned the Night" is a crunchy, rootsy, something that couldn't be said about any of the group's previous singles. It's a new style that's still familiar, but sexy in it's own way. The mid-tempo is inspired by dreams of one special night of passion. The poetic lyrics possess a relatable quality which will likely resonate with anyone who has loved someone from afar or only been able to spend one tender moment with someone when they longed for more.
Romantic sparks fly freely in video, which centers on a few young, cuddly and seemingly in love couples. Of course, those plot scenes are spliced with footage of Scott and her bandmates performing amidst all that amore, as fireworks burst in the night sky. Everyone is having a great time, since live music, reciprocated passion and sparks in the dark are all essential to the recipe for a good time. The video plays with the idea of the memory of the sparks that fly when you kiss someone for the first time or experience a taste of love in your formative years.
