Crystal Bowersox tweeted a link to this a few hours ago saying:

CHICAGO STREET MUSICIANS we're people with stories... Don't just pass us by... you never know :)

[misslilyish]

Hey! I'm from Brazil and loved the video!

[axisroto]

@misslilyish ... I knew it!! Brazilians have great taste :-)

.

If you think you'd enjoy a full hour-plus of MamaSox, go to my "channel" here and play my "Crystal" playlist....

[jotaeprice]

That is one of many reasons why i love to see you play music live.

you are the real deal and I'd pun my money on you in your first audition in Idol.

[pamperdenise]

SWEET!!!!

[jmcgurl1994]

Did you actually record Crystal Bowersox herself performing, or did you find the videos somewhere else?

[REChronic54]

Crystal should record this song.

[M39TSBY]

Thankyou for the video!!!!!! I been jones'n for Mamma Sox, can't wait for her

to make a record.

[axisroto]

@M39TSBY ...Her album will be released in October...now do the right thing...register with Amazon to be notified when available ;-)

[johnevans21]

Can't wait to go back to Chicago and actually seek out street & subway singers..Crystal is SOOOO awesome..'who'd a thunk' how far she's gone..Thank you ALL for your talents. You make the world a better place!

[RubenJamesMusic]

i love crystal bowersox

[snoozy81]

This is so great. thanks for this.

[rloke]

She has a raw unique voice; distinctive and sweet. No problem being a standout artist as well as playing in a band.

Surely she is the winner of the AI season -- if singing and music talent really counts (of course not we all know). Go Mamasox!!

[afireinsd647]

this is awesome! i love mama sox! (:

[SpeakTruer]

This was so long in loading, I almost gave up. I'm glad I didn't!! Love her voice. Very soulful yet bluesy too. An original !!

Someone should edit in brief segment of Lee D. in a Chicago paint store, staring blankly at a can of paint in the paint shaker machine. :)

[axisroto]

@Badaf1234 ...which is exactly where he will be (again) in about two years!!

[TheHalfcarat]

@axisroto You n the other guy, Bad..something are sick. Insulting Lee = self gratification.

[axisroto]

@TheHalfcarat ... Nobody's insulting Lee.

.

I'm sure he's a GREAT paint-store worker. Also a pleasantly "above average" singer, but he SURE ain't no MamaSox :-)

[ajile12345]

@Badaf1234 hahahahahaha!!! crystal is the deal.. amazing musicians .. all of them

[sifu50]

@Badaf1234 Perfect

[KCfan3]

Great video! Crystal sounds awesome and so do the rest. :) All of the instruments sound really cool together. :)

[oceanbeachsky]

Great video, awesome editing job. Love every musician on the video.

[jaz061459]

Mark, and all the people involved in this small but rather huge project: It is awesome!

It makes me proud to say that I know Mark for many years! Great job, amazing singer and a whole band as well as Chicago's views!!! Do it more do it more often too!!!

[getinthepool]

whoa, sorry, that got removed somehow.....just want to say what a great directing job here Mark! Bravo. Awesome video to go along with superb music. Looks and sounds amazing!

[jeffreyzalay]

This is a marvelous piece. Showcases not only a super singer in Crystal but the city and its landscape,. A video not to be missed by anyone. Great job Dog!!!

[DOGDIRECTOR]

Thank you, I really appreciate your kind words!

[DOGDIRECTOR]

Thank you! I appreciate your kind words

[robintorch]

This was a great video! Puts "our Town" in such beautiful light.

[DOGDIRECTOR]

Boundryrider, Thank you for your comment. Yes, it was challenging but a great deal of fun to put it all together. I allocated a massive amount of time to this project. I am very happy with the video... Mark

[axisroto]

@DOGDIRECTOR ...dude, this is so great!! I know it might not be commercially popular, and I know nothing about getting song-rights, but personally I would LOVE to see Crystal as the front-lady in a Robert Johnson Tribute video with as many of these guys as possible backing her up. . Think about it... "Stop Breakin' Down" "Love In Vain" "Dust My Broom" "They're Red Hot" "32-20" "Cross Road" "Me and The Devil" . WOW!!!!!

[lauriroset]

@DOGDIRECTOR

Hey Mark, could u pls list in the info sidebar the names of all the artists in this video?

I know they're in the credits at the end, but it would be cool to see their names here too ;)

Great vid, love this song & can't wait for Crystal's post-Idol album & solo tour!

She'll be in Chicago with Idols Tour next weekend..

Everyone should get out for that show.. I went last weekend here in NorCali & it was fantastic..

[boundryrider]

Wow! What a great job putting all this together. It must have been a nightmare getting it all together. Great video clip, mind you apart from RJ's version, the Blues Brothers is my next favourite!

[Kara899]

niceeee

[ABundy09]

The girl leads the guys! Typically Crystal Bowersox...the real deal Idol-winner!! She plays so fantastic and amazingly professional, no matter where she performs!

Thank you for sharing!

[chonkae]

nice!!!...oh crystal...:D

[chonkae]

@wintercat2 haha...though it's a funny name...that's really not nice....hehe...

[mustaccept]

She can sing anything. I can't wait to hear her first album - interesting since there seems a lot musical influences in her music. She's also the only girl standing in CSM.

[axisroto]

@mustaccept ...Her album will be released in October...now do the right thing...register with Amazon to be notified when available ;-)

[egonlr]

Always GOOOD!!!!

[pmdyer1960]

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!
