Here's a witty video showcasing Nashville and even making a bit of fun of some of Nashville's quirks.

Worth it for the drone shot of the carillon at the end.

Yes, NICE use of drone! Seems geared towards college age "kids" but the song is kinda catchy!

Worthy to go viral. Good stuff.


Can we make that mandatory viewing before posting the next "where should I live/go/eat/have a bachelor's party" thread?

They showed part of it on the local news last night - Channel 4 (NBC).

Somewhat of a rebuttal from The Nashville Scene.


"However, other things about their narrative chafe a little, and for more serious reasons.

They swat playfully at a slew of easy targets, like Green Hills' fancy shops and the Gulch's expensive high-rise condos. But then East Nashville is "a place where the chicken's super hot / Grab a drink, read a book / You can walk home, but don't get shot." And "Nolensville Pike is just a really long road / In fact, you'll find more auto shops than you find homes."

I'm well aware that it's all in fun, but those oversimplifications gloss over significant problems that face real humans who live here, too — in areas where concerns run high over housing costs, overcrowded schools and much more.

While it would be easy and kinda fun to say "look at these gormless twits," it's clear that they have some skill at reaching people — 150,000 YouTube plays isn't viral, but most everyone I've run into this week has had something to say about it. Rather than call for the pitchforks, I'm looking forward to them making a substantial contribution in the future."

His most watched video before this was about 3,500 - with nearly 225,000 hits, he at least got the attention he wanted.
