11 January Is For Videos: Paolo Nutini – New Shoes

Every time I hear Paolo Nutini, I think of Florida, specifically the time when I was on tour with my friends Lynn Graber and Katie Nelson. On the road we listened to Paolo’s debut disc “These Streets” about a hundred times. Sandy white beaches, convertibles, late night lounging in the pool… Ahh… the memories. I’ve written about Paolo before, so if you want to find out why I like his music, click here to check out that blog and video. I wanted to post another video of his. This is “New Shoes,” his fourth UK single (his second in the States). I like the UK version of this video because it’s really straight forward; he acts out exactly what he’s singing about. This is refreshingly simple and direct. Good direction for such a light-hearted song. Lynn, this video’s for you. Hope you’re enjoying your time in Florida!
