Nice interpretation, but the message got a little muddy for me.
Mainly the words got in the way. Too many borrowed phrases, too little originality. "God s Country," is something a much older person would say when I was a kid and told of going to a special place to adventure or hike out in the wild. And they would say it reverentially, not hammer it to death. It s rare they would say it at all. Probably could have put on his thinking cap and come up with something more original. He also quoted "Devil went down to Georgia." Yes, songwriters do quote each other, especially common in jazz, where they ll play a few bars of another tuneusually in a humorous nod to another well-known song.
Instead of a one-time quote, Shelton slathered the phrase all over the song like a borrowed jar of peanut butter. Again, looking for a little more originality here. "The devil went down to Georgia but he didn t stick around." Has a nice ring to it, but I don t see how it adds to the overall message. On a more positive note, the song had a good, driving beat, and the words were sung with conviction. I ll limit my comments to this song, and won t say what I think of current country music in general since I ll just get myself all worked up and we don t want that.
And I ll add that I didn t know who Blake Shelton was before this video. I may have heard the name, can t say one way or the other.
