A little birdie sent me this clip this morning.
*I love how Seven Mile Breakdown is getting so much airplay, and it hasn’t even been released yet. Yeah. Whatever.
*My favorite line of the interview? Simon saying: “You never listen to us.” Who knew? It seems Simon and I have something in common.
*Although, “Forget this whole blues thing” just might come in second. Seriously, Simon? It’s in his blood.
*”I’m telling you, Taylor, dude, trust me.” Oh Randy, you’re so eloquent, and I love you for it.
*Randy said, “I saw it tonight and I was like, What?” I noticed that look on a couple of the judges’ faces. It was like they really weren’t expecting that.
Personally, I think Taylor would be more accepted on country radio than he is on AC. But that brings us back to the old “how important is radio nowadays” argument. What’s interesting to me is how many “good vibes” are coming from this song. Don’t forget, of course, that this is original Taylor music. This is more of the type of music that many expected from him after Idol. Essentially, I think the southern rock genre is the closest thing that he can get to, because the whole Modern Whomp thing just isn’t working out.
All I know is that he really looked happy up there on that stage, and I am so thankful that he picked Seven Mile Breakdown to sing.
Now, get your ass back out on tour, Taylor. Please?
It's All Grey...
