Reba McEntire : The Original Video Goddess





Mom, Annie and I were in the car yesterday when I recalled a video done by Reba McEntire. It was probably the most memorable video she ever made for me, and that's considering how fantastically cheesy they usually are.

I promised Annie I would search for the video and post it in all it's cheese glory.

Unfortunately the people who posted this gem have disabled the embedding option, so instead I give you a link to see Reba McEntire's "Is There Life Out There".

I wonder why I love this video so much. I have no clue.

All I know is that the concept is vaguely familiar (i.e. mom goes back to university), but that's where the similarities end.

I've always had a soft spot for music videos with dialogue in them, and we have Ms. Pat Benetar to thank for that, I believe.

Couple all this with Reba's fabulously frizzy red hair and it's a gem. Really all her videos are amazing, I'm sure I'll be posting those soon.

So, pleasepleaseplease check out the link- it will not disappoint. We need more music videos with story/dialogue/message/crotchety old man/etc.

p.s. Check out the above tiny pictures. The depict the scenes where Reba screams at her video daughter for spilling coffee on her essay, prompting Reba to state after getting the paper back "I think I learned more from the stain." *sniff*sniff*
