Crap!!! My home computer hasn't been behaving well lately so I just kinda gave up on it last night. I can't wait to see this video and hear the song in it's entirety. Always good to read everyone's comments.

When Reece Witherspoon heard this track she immediately removed Stevie's name from her Wedding guest list. Besides, Stevie would have shown up in a white dress anyways.

I very much enjoyed the video but the song, no.

Given that this will be the worst song on the album it's a damn sight better than some of the filler trash on TISL.

As an album song it's perfect, might get Stevie some country attention, not a bad thing.

¿The worst song on the album? Have you heard that little snippet of Italian Summer?

But it all makes sense when the guitar solo starts and the pedal steel wafts in through the song like a magnolia-scented breeze- it's all a throwback to Tammy Wynette and George Jones and it's supposed to be corny, but heartfelt at the same time.

Let's face it- this song is not going to go anywhere on the charts; neither Dave or Stevie are established country names. But it's like the little cherry on top of the sundae that kind of sums up the chemistry between Dave and Stevie- that above and beyond the potential to make money with this project, it ultimately boils down to the wonderful times they shared, the laughs, the intense creativity and, at the end of the day, their musical partnership. "You and me." This is a big, sloppy loveletter to themselves, and they deserve it.

Well put... and I agree 100%

I think the operative word there is "snippet." Too soon to judge the tracks we haven't heard in their entirety, yes?

I know all of our opinions differ, but let's not consider a song to be the worst on the whole album. We haven't heard it yet.

I told David Wilde how much I loved Cheaper Than Free

His reply:

Yes, it's great, and there's a lot more where that came from on the album.

Amen!! Now, I can exhale and have true faith that this record will be undoubtedly great! As Stevie said, there is a lot of diversity on the record, to me thats the best kind of album.

Dave mentioned he wants the documentary/film to have a very small limited release to independent theatre's in select cities. Other than that and it possibly airing on some cable outlet, I expect it to be released separately for commercial purchase later in the year.

Yeah me too. I also just love the video. She looks sooo happy. You get the sense of what happened during the recording of this record and it looks like they had a blast. The Halloween stuff is great.

[tilthefirefades]

I absolutely love the video, and being treated to all the little clips of Stevie being adorable. The song however...not so much

[TheWILDheart]

I actually really think "Cheaper Than Free" will work really well as an album closer. Ok, so it's not the greatest song in the world, but it's a nice catchy little number and a great vocal from both Stevie and Dave. I think after "Italian Summer", which promises to be a classic Stevie epic, it will work - sort of like "The Highwayman" coming after "Outside The Rain" or, to a lesser extent, "Love Is" following "Fall From Grace" (I see lesser because 'Love Is' is AMAZING..but you get the idea :P)

[Annabell Lee]

OMG i just got home from work and i find THIS !!! I am beside myself with happiness !!
I LOVE this song. OMG May 3rd. seems even further away. I don't know if i have ever seen Stevie look so happy and beautiful. She is SO in her element and it is such a thing of beauty !!!! Go Stevie !! Yeah

I guess you've chosen to ignore my love for Secret Love. And my adoration of her recent performances of Leather & Lace, Love Is, and Edge. I guess you've ignored how I defended the sizzle reel for being beautiful, and how I think the album cover is gorgeous and incredibly fitting. There are PLENTY of things I like about this current era of Stevie... people just seem to be ignoring those comments from me, and instead jump on me when I say I don't like something.
