If there were ever someone who knew how to tug on your heart strings, it would be Jason Aldean with his video “Tattoo’s on this Town”. The video literally puts images to the lyrics and creates the song into a short story that will definitely “leave a mark” on the viewer. The song and video are about growing up in your hometown and having a whole bunch of memories brought back from seeing certain places where important things happened, how you influenced the town and how it influenced you. It’s something that pretty much anyone can relate to because we all remember where it was that we spent our childhood, the places we raised a little hell as teenagers, the stupid mistakes we’ve made and all the happy memories along the way. “Tattoo’s on this Town” is a video that is very patriotic, set in a small town and shows all the aspects of real life. It exemplifies a wide range of honest emotions that are experienced growing up and throughout our lives; first love, friendship, fun times and creating memories, getting married, a family member leaving for the army, a first child being born, death of a loved one, and then raising your own family as an adult in the same town.The group of characters helps to make the viewers feel as if they know them, which made me feel more connected to the song and all the emotions they’re feeling can come flooding to you. Only 3 minutes and 31 seconds, this video is an emotional roller coaster that is both inspirational and a tear jerker at the same time. The song title itself tells of what it is about and the song is good as well, but the music video is what really makes it stand out and for me personally, made me like the song even more.
