And the scores for Julianne Hough's country video...

It’s a slow news day, so I decided that it was finally time for me to watch Dancing With the Stars pro Julianne Hough’s country video, "That Song in My Head." (She wants to hear it, you see, so she can play back the video she has in her mind of a blue-eyed boy, dancing in the bed of a two-tone Ford — oh Lord, it’s love, y’all). Both the song and video are… basic. That’s really the best word I can think of to describe them. (Because "inoffensive" is overused, right?) Her hair is impressive though (as always). So is the length of that pier she’s walking on… I give it a 5. She’s clearly having a great time, and were I a teenage girl (or, um, boy), that could be infectious.

Your score?

    I now this isn’t the best place, but I just don’t know what to do. I tend to post on IMDB message boards and if there is anyone here who does it as well, can you please tell me if you are unable to log in as well ? What’s happening ?

  • Lyn

    She looks pretty and is a talented dancer. If you don’t have anything nice to say, so don’t say it all.

  • AtlMusic

    I think its a great song…..to me Julianne is one of those people that brings a smile to my face no matter waht she does and that’s great to me!!!

  • Lynny

    It’s cute- not groundbreaking- but cute.

    I just came from seeing a movie and this song was playing before the previews. I thought the song was simple but catchy and wonder who the hell Julianne Hough was. I thought it was from another myspace wonder.

    Very cute!

    I really like Julianne, but I thought the song was kind of lame (and the video was a bit dull). But props for the longest pier EVER.

  • Summer

    I loved it! It makes me think of summer and being young in love! I really love Julianne, she is just so talented and beautiful. She will be a huge sucess in the Country Music world! I am a big fan already!!! I will definatly buy her CD when it comes out on May 20th! Also plan to catch her on tour this summer with Brad Paisley….You go Julianne!!!

  • Angela

    Its not great, but I’ve heard worse. She should probably stick to dancing.

  • orville

    It’s ok, I guess. What is it about country music that makes people who don’t even have southern accents sing in a southern accent?

  • JJacobs

    The song is corny and you could go to any honky tonk in Nashville and hear singers with much better vocals. She should stick to dancing. A fake country accent and 5 pounds of hair extensions does not make you a country singer.

  • Julie

    Why does everyone who becomes famous for something else think that they need to be a singer too? Geesh! She is cute and an amazing dancer but this is not working. The video is cheesy, especially with that little radio she is carrying around. Leave the country to Carrie, Taylor and Faith Julianne! Stick to your amazing dancing!

    This video reminds me how much I miss Julianne on DWTS. She makes me smile. I was a big country music fan in middle school and high school, and this song reminds me of that time in my life. I might buy the album. Either way, I wish her the best of luck.

  • Kennedy

    I bet real country artists are laughing at this. That song is goofy and that fake accent is ridiculous.

  • Diane

    For all of you who think she just decided she wanted to sing one day your wrong! Julianne has been singing just as long as she has been dancing!! This is her dream to sing and I think she’s fabulous! Just as great as Carrie,Taylor and Faith!!! Don’t listen to these negative people, I and a whole lot of other people think your AWESOME!!!!

  • Mandy

    Yeah I’m sure that the “real country artists” are really laughing at this…..that’s why Brad Paisley asked her personally to be on his tour ticket this summer!!! All of the people hear making mean re-marks are just jealous!!! Julianne is so beautiful and talented! And a really sweet and down to earth girl. On CMT her video beat out T. Swift on a video showdown so I quess the real Country Music fans no what they like and what their talking about!!

  • tngirl

    There is no doubt that Julianne is sweet and beautiful but this is not her thing. Here vocals are average at best and if it wasn’t for DWTS I doubt the industry would have much interest in her. Yes, she is on tour with Brad Paisley but they are with the same label. The marketing machine added her to the tour to try and promote her. It’s a business. She may have been singing for a long time but not country. It is annoying to hear someone from Utah try to pass of a country accent. They gave her a record contract because right now she hot and had gotten attention in DWTS.

  • vw

    listen, if the AI folks can make it so can this girl. country music fans don’t ask for dramatic vocal range just simple, fun songs. i thought it was pretty good and right up there with some of the other stuff out there on country radio today. i don’t think she has any worries.

  • Alyssa

    Julianne is so pretty. I think she does a wonderful job for her first video. She said in some interview that she was very nervous but i think she did a wonderful job. She is a good singer and a very beautiful; person. She is only 19 so she has time to work on being nervous. Julianne always makes me laugh. she is so cute and funny. and this song always gets stuck in my head after i listen to it. haha.( thats not a bad thing)

  • filipinos4houghs

    Yes MANDY we so agree with you!!!We love Julianne and Derek. At least she stays out of negative publicity,doesn’t smoke or drink, and not on the streets in our town-L.A. boozed up like another dwts pro…you be happy in what your doing Julianne and keep your integrity always…

  • OBI

    Just found this article. I give her a 10. It is so nice to see and hear a real happy song. We need to uplift our spirits and I think this song and video is awesome. If you like sultry, sexual or offensive, this is not the video for you. If you need uplifting and just like happy, spirited songs, have fun and enjoy. :) I just wish she would have done a little more dancing in it. She is also an awesome dancer. I’m sure video # 2 or 3 or 4….will display her other awesome talent. Can you tell I really enjoyed it. :)

  • Shantanu(New Delhi, India)

    I became a fan of Julianne when I hear the song very first time and watched its video. I did not know her before. I visited her website and the song goes on and on. There is a lot of energy in the music. I love Taylor’s “Our Song” and feel that that Julianne’s “that song in my head” is equally vibrant.

  • Reader Bob

    OK reading all the comments posted here makes me say this… Let any one of you that looks better and does a better job at singing at this point in your career…Step up and be heard. Until then… EAT YOUR HEART OUT!! She is doing a great job and will surely get much better with experience. She is a 10 compared to Britney Spears or Paris Hilton. You can call her refreshing, wholesome and a breath of fresh air. Her dancing skills are outstanding as well. I and the rest of the world are waiting for all this new discovered talent that was so critical of Julianne in this post to demonstrate just how good you are or think you are. Come on…let’s see what YOU can do. We now know what Julianne can do, all you have to do is top it!!

    This is a great site!

  • Ellie

    Well, dancing is her thing, but I don’t think singing is. It’s annoying that she fakes a country voice. Her song, to me anyway, is nothing new. Just another country pop song.
