Just saw this vid and didn't care for it too much.
She wasn't in the Daisy car-how did she get to drive the General? Was that common? Then she goes into the bar and I thought they went to Deadwood.
Don't care for her vocals and I knew it was a matter of time before they did the standard extra dancers behind her bit.
Not a good thing except for Lee Hazlewood who will get a royalty check.

She looks like Britney Spears in the video -- saw it on MTV this afternoon and for a second or two I thought it was Britney until I paid attention to the song and not the body dancing around.
Anyway, she is hot as hell in the video I am not a fan of the original song, but this version is kinda catchy with the hick music in the background.

[btw...the song sucks and while she's got a good voice, she definitely doesn't know how to use it.]

All the sudden, I'm hungry for a Carl Jr's Spicy BBQ Burger.
A decent version of the song is Ces Bottes Sont Faites Pour Marcher by Eileen - available on the Femmes de Paris V.1 compilation. (This CD also includes a great version of the Rolling Stones song Paint It Black by Marie Laforêt.)

I like the version by ex Spice Girl Geri Halliwell. I don't know if I'll be able to track down the French one. I doubt they carry it at my local BB.

The song: Didn't like the song. It would have been nice to actually hear Willie Nelson and Trigger instead of the pop/electric/dance fuse. It would have actually been an interesting mix, Willie & Jessica.
The video: Like watching an assless- less pretty version of a Shakira video. Whatever happened to her anyway? Still hot, but I couldn't get Shakira out of my mind watching it and she tops Jessica anyday in my book.

Horrid, horrid, horrid version of the song. Seriously, everyone involved should be kicked out of the music industry because they clearly know nothing about making good pop songs. Nancy's is still best, but I also like Lisa Germano's version (available only on the first version of her album Happiness) even though she's since disowned the song.

Damn, she is so Hot, Hot, Hot in that video. Who cares that the song sucks.
The ONLY words that should have ever come out of Nick Lachey's mouth are:
- yes dear
- whatever you want dear
- you're so hot dear

OK, that could be my new #1 worst cover version ever.
And, please, can these girls just stick to porn where they belong. If you can't sell the music on its own merits (because it sucks), stop selling the "artist's" skin instead. Please.
I wonder if Jessica got a contact high when she kissed Willie.

I was watching the video and wondering who that amazing (out-of-synch) background singer was.
Then I realized I was playing a Neko Case song at the same time.

Stupid video (I started to laugh when she was trying to stay in sync with the other dancers and had to go into her "own thing" for awhile, as she couldn't keep up).
Horrible, horrible version of the song (the whole coping Britney by breathing through the song was highly noticeable). Jessica is a serious hottie though.
Definte MUTE then WATCH video.
