I'm such a BIG fan of Taylor Hicks. But, to be honest, he's kinda forgotten and kinda unknown among the other Idol.... Sad, but that won't stop me loving him! x)
I think Taylor should do some country music and get recognised by the country community. Country music and it's a association are VERY supportive of it's talents, so I think he should start there.
You know, Fantasia, Ruben Studdard and Taylor Hicks were born in wrong generations. If fantasia was born in the 70s/80s, she would definitely have been as huge as Aretha Franklin, Patti Labelle etc. If Ruben was born maybe 8 years earlier when PURE R&B was huge, he would def. have been huge too. If Taylor Hicks was born around the 60s/70s he would've been as huge as Tom Jones and Joe Cocker too i'm sure.
Taylor needs to stick to this format. He's clearly comfortable with it, and his country/blues/rock blend is made for today's country market. He should avoid the pop market like the plague.
@rgppcw I agree. even though taylor's style of music is not the most popular, it's what he's best at. he sounds great. i liked his second album much better than his first.

It was great to meet you in person for the video shoot for 7 mile breakdown. Great job, even though you had to redo the stupd car scene over, but the team edited it great. Wasn't the little italian place awesome. I wasn't trying to ignore you, I just respect your time/privacy and didn't want to intrude. I was very shocked you said goodbye! You are very down to earth and you don't take yourself seriously, which is awesome. Hope to see you again if your in Ventura County. Keep rockin'!
Both Taylor & the song are hot! He's so handsome with his amber brown eyes, long dark eyelashes, dimples & short curly hair. He's also immensely talented & incredibly charismatic. I'm hoping, just hoping, Hollywood takes notice & he ends up a super megastar.

let me tell you something. Carrie Underwood did not fall into the pop mold either but she is still famous...there is a reason why he is forgotten..its because America made a mistake making him there idol...that season Daughtry should have won! sorry but the soul patrol is a joke! when you walk into FYE and see his first CD he put out being sold for like 5 dollars you know we made a mistake. in the end all who deserved to win are on top anyway. check the charts Daughtry is there..not taylor
Taylor is the best idol together with Carrie in my opinion. It's so stupid that he is sort of "forgotten" by most just because he couldn't be molded into that pop thing. He is better off doing his own thing. The new album is great!
@Zeetana Agreed! For instance, this record sounds like the 70's, back when music was great! Hopefully Taylor will get a break soon, he's got so much talent and SOUL!
@Zeetana Agreed...the reason Taylor's debut flopped wasn't because of lack of talent...it was because Idol tried to make him into Michael Bolton 2.0, when he's more like Ray Charles or Joe Cocker ♥♥
Taylor blew them all away when he did this hot country-remix version on American Idol a few weeks ago.. There are videos of it here; def. worth checking out in addition to this new music video...
Well, its complicated. I just graduated from a broadcast school and there is a lot more to it than just playing a song whenever you want to. Most of the time when you hear people requesting certain songs on the radio they were actually pre-screened. All I can say is just keep trying and maybe something will happen :)
Love the piano and fiddle addition -- makes this not only a toe-tapping sound but also just an all around fun song. Can't wait to see a live performance.
Wow!! What an unexpected surprise. I was sent to this video by a friend, and I can definitely say Taylor did a great job. He seems to fit the country vibe pretty well. It's a toe-tapping, catchy little diddy :)
Taylor, thanks for posting this here because I was afraid the other sites would only have it for a limited time. Ya did it again Mr. Hicks -- can you say a-d-d-i-c-t-e-d??? Good Lord, if I played this video once, I've played it a couple of hundred times!
As usual you put your all into both the song and the video and you made me proud!!!
Hope to hear the song on radio and see the video on tv this summer -- it is great!!!
HE'S SO CUTE @ 1:33 !!!!
