Not knowing much about country music, I always considered it the realm of Christians, and not knowing too many Christians, I learned a lot from watching it because after a few seconds into the then-sixteen-year-old Meagan Harper's appearance in the video (it starts 29 seconds in) I started to think thoughts like, "Horrors!

(Fun fact: Being passed out drunk in the front seat of a parked car: illegal!) And don't think it can't happen to you drunkorexics! More »
