The gay country song taking America by storm
July 9, 2013 at 7:50 pm
Quote:He's a musician without a record label, a card holder without any remaining credit. And the gig that supplies what he calls "food money" may now be in jeopardy.
But after events of the last week, Steve Grand said "I would die a happy man today," and not for the reasons he's suddenly getting attention.
Grand's first music video, for his country-tinged rock ballad "All-American Boy," was posted on YouTube last Tuesday. By last night, it had exploded, attracting more than 400,000 total views — nothing for top-charting videos from big-name recording artists, but an impressive figure for one from a complete unknown whose only promotion has been internet buzz.

Not bad at all. It's more standard issue pop than country, and it sure as hell ain't rock, but this guy is pretty damn good. Ever listen to Romanovsky and Philips? Or is that just a Yank thing? They're a lot of fun.

It is so insanely average that it hurts. It also isn't really country at all. I'd probably like it more if it was.

That's what passes for country music here these days.
Shitty music, but I like this guy's courage.

As conservative as most country music fans are, I'm doubting he'll get much coverage there.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

It sounds like something you would hear in a sitcom montage.
