LeAnn can barely write good music worth listening to, which is why Taylor is so much more popular. There are plenty of really good singers and i do think LeAnn is one of them. This is almost the only song of LeAnns i like.
DANG! LeAnn did THIS long before Carrie - the sass, the attitude... LeAnn surely is the most under-rated female artist that emerged in the last thirty years!
LeeAnn is a natural talent. The man who wrote Blue meant it for Patsy Cline, but she died before she could record it. So he sat on it until LeeAnn Rimes came along.
I love LeeAnn rimes I grew up having the biggest crush on her then I seen her in concert over at the big e where I live and I’m gonna be 27 tomorrow and still love me some rimes
Okay, first time I have seen this video or heard this song. I have to say right off the bat, this is LeAnn Rimes, a woman that has the greatest vocal cords of all time and can sing any song well. This is a great video and was done very well. Hope she does something new this coming year...
sandinyourshoes agreed a great rhythm a lot like delta blues but more in the tune of southern rockabilly mixed with good ole fashion southern folk music
@@sumner296 Sorry no Pelahatchie is in central Mississippi close to Jackson. My hometown... she went to East Rankin Academy. There are more than 1,000 people here...maybe a 1,000 kids at our schools K-12🤣
makes you wonder who in the industry she pissed off to fade out. she has by far the best voice going. had to have crossed the wrong person. there is no reason she isnt blowing up radio even to this day. perfect voice and look
Tom Bukovac, Kenny Greenburg and Paul Franklin. If they're on the album, its a hit. Period. Best guitar sounds in Nashville. I could immediately tell its them on the track.
I first heard this almost 2 decades ago, liked it a lot but forgot all about it until today when I ran across it again. Darn good song! Holds up very well!
It's been 13 years since this came out but I just now discovered it. Someone in a blog mentioned this to me. I hadn't kept up with Leanne since she debuted as a teenager. Time now to catch up on her other videos. I noticed the reference in the lyrics to the Pelahatchie Bridge, which was of course mentioned in Ode to Billy Joe. This song has reference to Bobby Joe. He could have easly been the father or uncle of Billy Joe, as this video takes place in 1920s MS and the movie based on Ode to Billy Joe took place in the 1950s.
I just seen her in concert her voice is amazing live as well as in videos! Left with goosebumps ! Somwthing about her voice that i just love and i feel inside me when she sings id pay any amout to go see her again!!!
this isn't typical Leann, this is just her letting people know she can go there if she wants to. shock value isn't that high, just enough to tease if she wants to. she's not that child prodigy anymore, she's 100% woman. and yes im a huge fan.
"Nothin' Better To Do" Hung my cotton dress on rusted wire Up there on Pelahatchie bridge Just a crazy roughnecks daughter Jumped head first into the water Baptized away my sins Hitched to town with Bobby Jo and Tommy Couple of lookers new best friends We slipped in back of Sunday service Know them church ladies they heard us Bum smoke money from the offering Mamma said "Idle hands are Devil's handy work" Oh the trouble you'll get into When you got nothin' better to do, got nothing better to yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Sign read bait, chips, beer and ammunition That slim-Jim bag boy hadn't a prayer I hiked my skirt and did the talkin' While them boys were busy walkin' Case of .5 out the back door Hid deep in the Mississippi back woods We danced and played around til' dark I had them wrestling for my first kiss Turned into a fight and they missed Me speeding off in Tommy's car Mamma said "Idle hands are Devil's handy work" Oh the trouble you'll get into When you got nothin' better to do, got nothing better to yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Nobody hurt, nobody harmed Nobody's business but my own Mamma said "Idle hands are Devil's handy work" Oh the trouble you'll get into When you got nothin' better to do, got nothing better to yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Jasmine Winters , Miss Jasmine that is a wonderful comparison. I own that film. What would think of them doing a Country Music version of Chicago? Have a great day Dearheart & thanks for your beautiful analogy. 🌹😀🌹😀🌹😀🌹😀🌹
This is brilliant. I'm interested to see that it was uploaded in 2007, yet today is the first time I have heard it. That is some bloody effort on my part, depriving myself for so long.
I was never a fan of hers or this kind of music. I saw the video by accident. Years later, I still look it up to watch once in a while because it's one of the best videos I've ever seen (and I was an MTV teenager).
I agree Leann was and still is so talented. She was singing from a very young age and payed a hell of a lot more dues than Carrie underwood has. But we sure showed her how fast you can be a used to be. Shame on us. As much as a like Jason Alden’s he did the same thing and we didn’t shame him into not singing anymore. I’m glad she is getting the therapy she needs. Welcome back Leann saw you on CMT yesterday you rocked it girl.
What a voice. What a singer. What a talent. What a songwriter. What an absolute legend. So happy to live in these Times to be able to listen to leann. Keep rocking leann even through these difficult days were all going through!!!
Wow, I remember when it was the big hit on VH1. Excellent tune, she's is one of the most underrated artist of. 👏All. 👏Time 👏it also reminds me of the fact that I'm getting older and older..
Give me LeAnn Rimes any day, and forget Taylor Swift--LeAnn can sing Taylor under the bus with her talent! Go LeAnn!
LeAnn can barely write good music worth listening to, which is why Taylor is so much more popular. There are plenty of really good singers and i do think LeAnn is one of them. This is almost the only song of LeAnns i like.
Whoever put this video and choreography together is a genius....GENIUS! LeeAnn shined too!
She directed the video iirc. Choreography maybe by somebody else but yeah she rocks.
@@aj_jk1337u are right, it was her debut directing :)
@@stealurcookies she ACED it!
@@aj_jk1337This is country, not rock.
@@aj_jk1337choreography was her ex husband.
DANG! LeAnn did THIS long before Carrie - the sass, the attitude... LeAnn surely is the most under-rated female artist that emerged in the last thirty years!
Exactly! Not to mention, Carrie Underwood looks exactly like a white George Foreman and I can't get over it. 😂
Agree!
..she says after LeAnn blasts out full bloom in Masked Singer. She’s a babe and has a set of pipes. ✌️❤️
I like Carrie but Leann has a lot more soul!
LeAnn does not hold a candle to the talent Carrie Underwood has. It is a shame to compare the two.
LeeAnn is a natural talent. The man who wrote Blue meant it for Patsy Cline, but she died before she could record it. So he sat on it until LeeAnn Rimes came along.
She kicks ass in this song! What a voice. Sass and class! I loved seeing her in concert.
*nobody hurt...no body harmed...nobody's business...but my own* you tell em sista
The period look suits her real well. Because she has what's called a classical beauty.
I can listen to this song all day, over and over. Besides... I have Nothin' Better To Do😉 ❤
This is my absolute favorite song Lee Ann ever did. Period. She is AMAZING!!
i can't believe this doesn't have at least a million hits by now.... too good
Hail satan
Criminally underrated song. Sass is strong in this!
I agree. Clever turn of phrase in your post BTW.
Ugh, AGREED!! Love it so much. 😍
Female strength in a male dominated world.. at the time at least.
I love LeeAnn rimes I grew up having the biggest crush on her then I seen her in concert over at the big e where I live and I’m gonna be 27 tomorrow and still love me some rimes
Smoking

I like the "Mississippi Delta Blues" quality of this song. LeAnn is wonderful.
Yes me too! I’m from Mississippi, lol🤗
sandinyourshoes agreed a great rhythm a lot like delta blues but more in the tune of southern rockabilly mixed with good ole fashion southern folk music
Hail satan
The song is about her hometown of pelahatchie Mississippi population 998. Right on the edge of the Delta.
@@sumner296 Sorry no Pelahatchie is in central Mississippi close to Jackson. My hometown... she went to East Rankin Academy. There are more than 1,000 people here...maybe a 1,000 kids at our schools K-12🤣
Everything Leanne sings is gold ✨
This is a hard song to sing! She does it flawlessly with the greatest ease! That folks is the sign of a God given gift!Love this gal❤
yes, except there is no god..
@@thereverendepi_gee565Exactly
13 years later and I still love this song
LeAnn Rimes no thank you
The hottest singer of any genre and of all time. Perfection at its finest.
God bless her for this song. I'm a 50yr old guy from Scotland. Wish Her all the best.
Favourite bit ... the dancing on the table. ❤
One of the best country songs you'll ever here. Love the instrumentals
She is beyond terrific. Love her style.
Pilahatchy Bridge ought to be a national monument in the U.S after this.
Dem church ladies never recovered from it.
Love Leann. She has a natural sensuality that just adds to her incredible talent and performances. :)
Great song. Her singing is fabulous.loved her concert
Back then.😊
Holy Fuck!!!!! 2007?!!!! I didn't know this was an old song!!!! I thought this was new!!!! OMG. ahhhhhhh
makes you wonder who in the industry she pissed off to fade out. she has by far the best voice going. had to have crossed the wrong person. there is no reason she isnt blowing up radio even to this day. perfect voice and look
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMEN!
I have a feeling she got burned out after making it so big when she was young.
Tom Bukovac, Kenny Greenburg and Paul Franklin. If they're on the album, its a hit. Period. Best guitar sounds in Nashville. I could immediately tell its them on the track.
I just adore the way you perform your art, unconditionally and without holding back. One of a kind Country Lady.
One special lady, she gives me goose bumps even before she opens her mouth.
Yes
This song is so vocally incredible!!
I first heard this almost 2 decades ago, liked it a lot but forgot all about it until today when I ran across it again. Darn good song! Holds up very well!
I love the period setting. Prohibition, I think.
She is amazing she does not need any help sounding better like the rest do..
The dance mix of this enhances this song tremendously.
It's been 13 years since this came out but I just now discovered it. Someone in a blog mentioned this to me. I hadn't kept up with Leanne since she debuted as a teenager.

The more I watch this video the more I like it, and the better leann looks.
I just seen her in concert her voice is amazing live as well as in videos! Left with goosebumps ! Somwthing about her voice that i just love and i feel inside me when she sings id pay any amout to go see her again!!!
She’s a terrific talent.
I've been crazy 'bout Leann since I first heard her sing "Blue", but never realized that this gal can DAAAANCE!! What a talent! God bless her!!
She can dance for someone I didn't know could dance, but honestly, I know hundreds of better dancers
Wow. 16 years ago, how have I missed this one? Love it.
this is the sickest shit to come out in the last 20 years ( and i mean that in the best way) dont be scared Country Music..... you know what's up...
this isn't typical Leann, this is just her letting people know she can go there if she wants to. shock value isn't that high, just enough to tease if she wants to. she's not that child prodigy anymore, she's 100% woman. and yes im a huge fan.
I like Lee Ann, I like the Song, I like the period style look and I Like the Choreography. What's not to Like? Besides "I Got Nothin' Better to Do."
Love this and her voice
This girl deserves a comeback!!!!! SOOOOO underrated! She is amazing..
"Nothin' Better To Do"
Hung my cotton dress on rusted wire
Up there on Pelahatchie bridge
Just a crazy roughnecks daughter
Jumped head first into the water
Baptized away my sins
Hitched to town with Bobby Jo and Tommy
Couple of lookers new best friends
We slipped in back of Sunday service
Know them church ladies they heard us
Bum smoke money from the offering
Mamma said "Idle hands are
Devil's handy work"
Oh the trouble you'll get into
When you got nothin' better to do, got nothing better to
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Sign read bait, chips, beer and ammunition
That slim-Jim bag boy hadn't a prayer
I hiked my skirt and did the talkin'
While them boys were busy walkin'
Case of .5 out the back door
Hid deep in the Mississippi back woods
We danced and played around til' dark
I had them wrestling for my first kiss
Turned into a fight and they missed
Me speeding off in Tommy's car
Mamma said "Idle hands are
Devil's handy work"
Oh the trouble you'll get into
When you got nothin' better to do, got nothing better to
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Nobody hurt, nobody harmed
Nobody's business but my own
Mamma said "Idle hands are
Devil's handy work"
Oh the trouble you'll get into
When you got nothin' better to do, got nothing better to
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
She is, hands down, the most beautiful woman in the world. Oh yeah, most talented too.
please leave leann alone we were all young once now that she is older she will get her priorities straight what a beautiful singer
one of my favorite songs!! it makes me want to dance!
This has O Brother Where Art Thou and Chicago written all over it. Can country music return to this sound and TALENT?! KTHANKS
a dream came true when LeeAnn came to NJ the other night to the State Theatre. She is so loved1
I used to love this song soooo much this is the first time I've heard it in years ❤️❤️❤️
Katie Boone
Yessss
I hear it at work everyday. I love it and I'm a 29 year old man lol.
Love her voice.....bit of country and Western in me!!! x
Her voice, is so amazing, love this song ...
This is one of my all time favorite music videos
Video reminds me of Chicago. I love the song.
Jasmine Winters , Miss Jasmine that is a wonderful comparison. I own that film. What would think of them doing a Country Music version of Chicago? Have a great day Dearheart & thanks for your beautiful analogy. 🌹😀🌹😀🌹😀🌹😀🌹
I haven’t watched this in years. She’s got my heart racing.
So underrated Leanne is always amazing can't wait for her " Imagine" retention cone out it is AMAZING
She took it there, and I love every magical second of it. 💕
so glad shes doing the masked singer i hope people will again start recognizing her for the talent she is
Stuck in the house being isolated from the world this song hits home 2020 has nothing better to do.
Perfect vocal. Slides to the next note perfect Not one overly bright note. Banjo rocks.
LeAnn is my queen because her good beautiful singing
So easily my favorite by her, wish she did more like this
This is brilliant. I'm interested to see that it was uploaded in 2007, yet today is the first time I have heard it. That is some bloody effort on my part, depriving myself for so long.
+LordMontystink me too it is such a shame hhhhhh
I feel like this is even older than that for some reason lol. I remember listening to this a long time ago
I was never a fan of hers or this kind of music. I saw the video by accident. Years later, I still look it up to watch once in a while because it's one of the best videos I've ever seen (and I was an MTV teenager).
Wow! My girl is back! I loved leeann from 1995! Love this song girl!😍😍😘😘😘🤗🤗🤗
We was teenagers back in the 1990s❤💘
Any song and video that makes me want to sing and dance is fine by me. Well done.
Timeless song. Still love it.
I’m as awed by her talent as I am grieved by her choices.
LeAnn should do Dancing With The Stars. She'd easily be in the Final 3 ,if not the overall winner.
I agree Leann was and still is so talented. She was singing from a very young age and payed a hell of a lot more dues than Carrie underwood has. But we sure showed her how fast you can be a used to be. Shame on us. As much as a like Jason Alden’s he did the same thing and we didn’t shame him into not singing anymore. I’m glad she is getting the therapy she needs. Welcome back Leann saw you on CMT yesterday you rocked it girl.
Country, not Rock
She is the most underatted singer along with Dido, Delta Goodrem and also Beyonce
There’s nothing I don’t like about this song and video. She gets my heart pounding, that’s for sure ❤️
BVJ 2011, Leann followed by Reba...two of the best live country performances I have ever seen in my 70 years
🎉 This came out in 2007, when bluegrass was popular again. This is one of LeAnn's best videos. 😂 Greetings from coastal Mississippi
She's got it all! ❤😊
Cannot wait to see her in Reno this September. Please Leann, sing this for us.
She is amazing .I saw her a few years ago at a casino and she was great . I think she should be filling stadiums .
Great song I don’t care what anyone thinks she rooooooooooooooooooooocks it ! You try singing it try you try it’s not easy ! ❤️🎶👍🏼🙏🏼💫✨

Love this song, such a Chicago vibe for the video.

What a voice. What a singer. What a talent. What a songwriter. What an absolute legend. So happy to live in these Times to be able to listen to leann. Keep rocking leann even through these difficult days were all going through!!!
This was on the radio when I was in high school! I remember having such a crush on LeAnn Rimes in my teens.
