When we first saw Laura Bell Bundy’s “Giddy On Up” video, it was hard to watch without thinking about it being a strange Dolly Parton rip off. Fortunately, Laura has moved on and with “Two Step” is now one of our favorites! She sings, dances, looks great, and yeah maybe it’s a little Britney Spearsy/Jessica Simpsony, but we can take it!
Laura Bell Bundy is definitely one of the most delightful country singers around and her “Two Step” video is a testimony to this. The song is a duet with Colt Ford and despite the fact that it didn’t make big waves on the charts, fans appreciate her signature sound. As for the video, it’s just as much fun as the song and Laura looks absolutely amazing.
It starts off with a group of women, including Laura, finishing up their usual work day. However, their typical work day consists of handling heavy machinery. While listening to the lyrics it’s obvious why they are in this particular setting, which is typically reserved for men. They are proud, confident ladies who don’t need a man to get things done and in this case, they don’t need men to have fun.
In unison the group pulls out their flasks and toast to their bold independent statement. They are planning on doing the “two step” tonight and nobody is going to stop them. After punching out they all head to the ladies room where they transform from everyday workers into smoking hot girls, ready to take the night and turn it on its head.
As the girls start to do their thing they are joined by a large crowd including Colt Ford. At first the girls do the routine alone and then they are joined by everybody. Ultimately everyone ends up dancing and having a really good time to Laura Bundy’s “Two Step”.
The first impression viewers get is girl power and confidence. Laura and the rest of the girls are in control of the situation, they know what they are doing and they know how to celebrate their independence. But another thing that stands out is the fun factor. Their attitude in addition to the clear message that men won’t limit their fun is all in good spirit.
As expected Laura really tears up the dance floor. She had been dancing since she was a little girl and this is evident in the video. She looks comfortable, sexy and energized. That’s another thing about the video which makes it a winner, the energy from the ladies. While watching you’ll probably feel like breaking out your party clothes and start dancing with them.
Overall the video isn’t the most original. It’s a winning theme that has been done quite a few times by several pop stars, but it is still very entertaining. Laura never fails to keep the attention of her audience and this performance is no exception. It’s also obvious that the director placed a lot of focus on the dance moves, probably because it can be imitated rather quickly by fans. Chances are Laura started a new dance craze with her “two step” move.
Laura Bell Bundy is not afraid to use the sexy moves.
Some people may not appreciate her mixture of country and pop, but she is trying something new. Laura is one of the most daring artists on the scene today, which gives her a certain edge. She doesn’t fear the choices she makes. Instead she embraces them with both hands and she enjoys the fact that life is about living, not hiding in a comfort zone.
