I can not get enough of this song! This song gives me motivation, I play it every morning getting ready for work. It then goes on when I get to work. I am 55 yrs old and just bought a hula hoop!
This music-dancing presentation is something I'll never forget. Whomever made the choice to combine that particular song with that particular beautiful woman dancing deserves credit. Well done
If I remember right, she contacted the band through opie in nyc who was friends with her and opie was friends with the band as well. The band was introduced on opies radio show on XM and played a few songs. Hula Hoop was already known to opie, liked this particular song and then made contact with Chris and wala! Out comes this beautiful video!
One of my most favorite songs. Ms. Katie sunshine was the perfect choice for this video. Elegance is one thing, fun is another. Elegance in motion while having fun. That my friends is an art.
Artists like The Record Company and a handful of other artists give me hope that new,quality music is still possible. The kind of quality that will hold up 20 years from now . Thanks for the post.
Truth. There is such a hole in rock these days. Oh the bands and singers and players are out there, but the music has to catch us and be accessible. Streaming is the new delivery system I guess so I might as well embrace it, better than watching bloated record companies pay off djs to play songs for coke like in the 70s.
in 1902 the most popular music was band music. Marching and flutes and Souza and all that. That was it for popular music and had been fir a couple decades. Eventually swing and blues etc took hold around the 1920s and after that everybody knows about rock. So maybe rock has had its day and a hundred years from now all people will know is that rock was big, guitarists were huge and if you ask them to name some rock musicians some might say The beatles, or Elvis, but that's probably it. just like if I asked you who were the popular musicians in 1902, you might say John Phillips Souza. or maybe nothing comes to mind. Is Rock dead? Or dying?
I love the song. Fantastic performance, rhythm, melody, singing, instrument playing... but I tell you what, I could just watch Katie Sunshine do the hoops all day long even without any music.
I'm glad that Katie Sunshine was the whole video, Americana feel to the video, sound of the song....even though it's recent it takes us back to a time America hasn't seen in a while! Good times...good sounds, and Katie Sunshine!❤️
katie sunshine you are amazing. awesome props to the band for seeking her out for this video. cant think of anything that wouldve stuck with me more visually than this video did. i loved the song already and katie made me wanna go buy a hula hoop just to dance to it like her. i feel awesomely patriotic today!!!!
I discover this band, through the song, "Life to Fix." I heard it on The Spectrum channel on Sirius XM satellite radio. This is a great throw back to good, straight up rock music. Good stuff.
Oh My Damn! This is the video I never dreamed about but wanted my whole FUCKING LIFE. Emphasis is necessary as I've watched this 12 times already. She's just kkkkiling this blues song...to death and shaking her hips to bring it back to life. The moves this woman has are stunning, she's tuned into those mystic, invisible forces that rock and rhythm and soul and blues gets a hold of and make you move goddamnit Makes you dance and shake and twirl and makes the whole world smile, no human being breathing air could resist reacting to her dance and bring it, just bringing IT! Just like the grinding goddess Miss RITA MAE come on back girl. whew burring me up! Fire!
This song came up in my feed, wasn't watching, just listening and heard the bass guitar intro and said Damn! So I looked and was instantly captivated. Such grace and that smile!! Couldn't wait to show my wife - she totally dug the outfit! 'Course she had to give me some grief about the woman's looks and moves helping to like the song. Totally had me at the bass intro for sure!
This song is killer. Heard it on the radio WFUV . When I went to You Tube to Hoop the song I noticed that Katie Sunshine was pretty good. I Hoop a lot of The Record Company's songs and must thank Katie for my now crazy Hoop antics. More Record Company!! More Katie!!
Awesome soulful music, great band, great song, great vid (Katie Sunshine moving with that hoop is grace in motion, also she's a genuine beauty). Best of all: glad to find The Record Company isn't a somehow overlooked band from back in the day, but a relatively young and recent band playing real music today.
[Verse 1] Good morning, Rita, don't you miss your wine? Don't you miss your body being next to mine? Got a hollow heart and I'm feeling wrong Got a dollar in my pocket for a midnight song [Verse 2] When your lover's gone and the music's over Oh no, don't wanna be alone any more When your lover's gone, can't rest at night Threading through the crowd in a low-tavern light [Hook] Yeah, she's gone, yeah, she's gone My Rita was a light in my bright shining morning Yeah, she's gone, yeah, she's gone My Rita Mae Young [Verse 3] Good morning, Rita, hope you're doing right I couldn't give you what you wanted, but you stayed on my mind Got a tired heart, and it's been too long Put a dollar in the jukebox for a midnight song When your lover is gone, there's cloud in your eyes It might be the bourbon, all the lies that you hide When the evenings done, that feels warm The soft southern air and a jukebox morning
Katie Sunshine mesmerizes me. She's just beyond words with those hoops, and it's not even a sex thing. Something is gritty classy about it.... good stuff.
She is so good with a Hula Hoop! And I love how her outfit embraces that Free Spirit Americana we don't see too much of any more. Individuality - not hipster group think... I love it.
I love every song from the album, and this video is amazing - girl's dancing is so fascinating - not just acting, one can see she's really stoked with the mucic) please make more videos!)
I absolutely LOVE this song - the sound, the beat, Katie - it's fantastic and I want to play this to my young daughter to get her interested in hula hooping and jiving to happy music!!!
Man saw the band first time,lol twice in a week,hit the stage is no exaggeration,high energy,must see if you get the chance,hope your back in 🇬🇧soon guys👍
This video works so well--hard to explain but Katie is a perfect compliment to the song ......she would be the light in anyone's bright shining morning! i have watched this a hundred times and it always lifts me up thank you all!!
Badass 3 man band!! Greatest in a very very long long time!! Back to the basics of jamming their asses off!! Love these guys, and the hoola hoop girl plus ALL their music!!!! Right on brothers!! Thanks for the jam
Wow!! I've told several Girl friends that if they could dance like this, I'd marry them tomorrow and get Paul McCartney to sing with The Record Company at the wedding!! It ain't about sex either, ('Cept for a shake or two!), it's about how much joy Katie gets out of it! It's infectious AF! Good job Record Company,you picked the right director for a classic video and a classy lady. All I feel qualified to say is, WOW!!!nb
i have this song on my phone playlist... never saw the video til just now... that lovely woman will run through my head every time i hear this song now. friggin great!
WOWWOWOWWOWOW, fantastic collaboration of arts! She and the music...gorgeous, uh, I am really impressed. Great job everyone. I want to show it to my students! What a smart decision. Elegant, hot, musical, engaging, lyrical, happpppy, great song, can't wait to see you live next week!
I apologize for saying it, but I was turned onto these guys by watching the television series SEAL Team... The bass line at the beginning of Gotta Pick Myself Up From The Side of the Road hooked me... I'm a 64 year old bass player and this made me smile....
Never heard of these guys or a song by them. Just saw them in Tampa in an 150 yr. old courtyard! Blew me away! My new obsession. Rock on!!
I can not get enough of this song! This song gives me motivation, I play it every morning getting ready for work. It then goes on when I get to work. I am 55 yrs old and just bought a hula hoop!
Love this song, she inspired me to learn how to hula-hoop again! I practice everyday😉
I’m the same age and just got one too lol
Man this comment made me happy. I’m only 19 and struggle to have that energy lmao. Good song too!
54 year old rocker and I just bought a projector and some speakers to watch this on my wall every morning. Makes me move!
I am 54 and I'm in love with Katie Sunshine, The artist doing the dancing in this video.
This music-dancing presentation is something I'll never forget. Whomever made the choice to combine that particular song with that particular beautiful woman dancing deserves credit. Well done
You got that right!

One of my most favorite songs. Ms. Katie sunshine was the perfect choice for this video. Elegance is one thing, fun is another. Elegance in motion while having fun. That my friends is an art.
I couldn't agree more. Well said.
Just found this. GOD DAMN, that's what I call music.

How can you not like this song and her hula hoop artistry?
I love the song. Fantastic performance, rhythm, melody, singing, instrument playing... but I tell you what, I could just watch Katie Sunshine do the hoops all day long even without any music.

[Verse 1]
Good morning, Rita, don't you miss your wine?
Don't you miss your body being next to mine?
Got a hollow heart and I'm feeling wrong
Got a dollar in my pocket for a midnight song
[Verse 2]
When your lover's gone and the music's over
Oh no, don't wanna be alone any more
When your lover's gone, can't rest at night
Threading through the crowd in a low-tavern light
[Hook]
Yeah, she's gone, yeah, she's gone
My Rita was a light in my bright shining morning
Yeah, she's gone, yeah, she's gone
My Rita Mae Young
[Verse 3]
Good morning, Rita, hope you're doing right
I couldn't give you what you wanted, but you stayed on my mind
Got a tired heart, and it's been too long
Put a dollar in the jukebox for a midnight song
When your lover is gone, there's cloud in your eyes
It might be the bourbon, all the lies that you hide
When the evenings done, that feels warm
The soft southern air and a jukebox morning
{hook}
{verse 1}
{hook X2}
Thanks!
My 71 year old husband thought it was Fleetwood Mac!!! Sooo good❤️
OMG!!!👀🤩🥰 just fell in love..all over again...
Katie Sunshine mesmerizes me. She's just beyond words with those hoops, and it's not even a sex thing. Something is gritty classy about it.... good stuff.
Agreed. The scenery, direction, and editing all play a huge part. But, she's just having a good time dancing with a hoola-hoop ( or four)
Dean Rogers So true! The movements just flow ... parts of it almost seem CGI amazing , except of course without the CGI absurdity.
Yea, including the bell bottoms!
HEAR HEAR!
'Merica !
Had the pleasure of seeing y'all at Bean Blossom 2019 and Katie as well. Perfect combo on this epic song!
This is one helluva song!
Hell of a good band!
She is so good with a Hula Hoop! And I love how her outfit embraces that Free Spirit Americana we don't see too much of any more. Individuality - not hipster group think... I love it.
The Record Company, Great Van Fleet, Dorthy - A BREATH OF FRESH AIR !! a MUCH NEEDED SOUND IN ROCK RIGHT NOW!
STR8TFU!!
How is Greta Van Fleet fresh anything?
Rival sons are the best in the game at the moment
Listened to this again for the first time in a while. Sorted my night!
