Lady Antebellum Follow A Couple In "Just a Kiss"

Lady Antebellum have just premiered the new video for their current tender track "Just A Kiss," the lead single from the group's upcoming third studio album, "Own the Night," which will be released on September 13. Musically, the song is a country pop song set in common time with a moderately slow tempo country ballad whose lyrics speak of a love relationship between two newly-formed couples. It deftly captures that nervous energy that takes over your gut in the early stages of a budding romance.
The song is about a goodnight kiss at the start of a new relationship. Here's what the three Lady Antebellum members had to say about the tune, starting with Hillary Scott, who was dating drummer Chris Tyrell when they wrote this number. She said: "We love writing songs from personal experience, and this is definitely one of those songs. There is so much excitement at the beginning of a new relationship... all the butterflies and that optimistic feeling that this person could be 'the one.'" Dave Haywood: "One of the best things about writing for us is that we have the option to speak from both the man and woman's perspective because Charles and Hill can share lead vocals."
Charles Kelley: "The day we wrote this song was one of those days that renewed my faith in the bond the three of us have as songwriters... It came so easily, and it reminded me of the early days when we first started out, and we'd spend hours in my brother Josh's house writing songs. Everyone keeps asking if we feel pressure after the success of 'Need You Now,' and we are trying to not even think about the new album or these songs in those terms. We are just writing about what we are going through in our lives, and we hope that country music fans continue to connect with them."
The Shaun Silva-directed heart-pinching video follows the romantic journey of a young couple as they visit various beautiful cities. It begins with a young girl getting on a train in a foreign city. She pulls out an iPad with a video message from presumably her boyfriend. We can see Scott in the background, eyeing her. It's a subtle but powerful moment, as we are all voyeurs in this particular love story. The clip then cuts to the band members performing separately in a train station, and featuring things the young couple did together as tourists and as strangers in a strange land. The memories come to life, literally, as they gallivant through London and Paris. The couple actually meet again on a train at night. They share a kiss and then reality sets in. It turns out to be a dream or a fantasy that they were having while asleep.
