Title fail, it's always good to be a redneck.

I can't say much for the visuals, but the Kentucky Headhunters do a much better job of murdering that song.

Ain't nothing wrong with some good old fashioned fun.
Those young ladies may not be world class country stars but they are having fun and their audience is enjoying the show what else could you ask for?

I can't really make out the lyrics, but it seems to me there's a strong Austrian/Swiss/Bavarian accent to the blond singer.  Euro-hillbillies?  If so, I'd like me some Austrian Daisy Duke. >:D

Probably yes. The video seems to have been shot in Switzerland =).

Hoorah. I'm so glad when we export low-brow culture.

I wish we could import some gun culture =D.

The original song was by a Swedish group, too.

Interlaken is an awesome place...even more so if there is a fiddle involved. Big "hills" there...figures there would be some big hillbillies.

Better we should export hip-hop and rap?
Don't like it? Don't watch it but keep the insults to yourself.

Suggesting that a Swedish techno band's annoying tune is some export of hardworking rural American culture?

It did not originate from a swedish techno group, they just covered it. I'd like to import some of the culture in that video.

I took your commemt as insulting to the orginating culture of that tune.

As it should be played:

Just because some euroweenies murdered it, doesn't make it our fault they like our music.

I was referring to the Daisy Duke costumes, mainly, and the field of frivolous pop music generally.

As a member of the rural working class, raised on Bill Monroe, I invite all of the butt-hurt among you to stuff it. Who died and made you more of a country boy than me?

Oh, and while we're on the subject of Euro-type-culture music:
It gets hardly more Euro than this,

except maybe Rammstein, (which strikes me of KISS in a minor key)

Food court's closed.  =)

I've heard of bluegrass groups starting up in places like Japan and Russia, and I always thought that was great. But nothing about the performance in the OP resonates with my rural up-bringing. Seems more like a caricature of it that ends up being more like the Pussycat Dolls.

I think you need more fiber in your diet.

Would you stop doing that? You know I hate it when I agree with you.

Nice....but the costumes are, typical for Germans, overengineered. Need more flexibility in the upper chassis to avoid injury....esp. if more jumping is involved....

Why, again, is that "low-brow"?  [popcorn]

Damn you all trying to find fault with a perfectly good video of boobs and tails shaking around. We used to have priorities around here. Good grief.

Well, we're an odd conglomeration. Got a preacher, a married fellah, and the doctor... well, he'd have to... relax for thirty seconds to get his play. That'd be more or less a miracle.

I asked that of Fistful because IIRC, folks pay good money on family vacations to Branson just to take in similar performances. 

Or the Brevard County Fair.

Or Summerfest.

etc...

And what do you think that indicates?

That my parents wasted good money taking us kids to Branson?

"Low Brow" is in the eye of the beholder. 

Near as I can tell, those girls ain't exactly twirling around brass poles getting dollar bills stuffed in their G-Strings...
