3 "Amarillo Sky" (referring to Amarillo, Texas, USA) was originally
recorded by the band McBride & the Ride in 2002 on their album Amarillo
Sky. Aldean recorded it it for his 2005 debut album, Jason Aldean and his
version was released as a single in mid-2006. Aldean's version reached #4 on
the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Chart . It did well on the U.S. crossover Hot 100 and Pop 100 charts, and peaked at #29 in Canada. A music video,
directed by Wes Edwards, features Aldean and his band playing the song under
an old, torn-up barn. It shows young farmers working on their farms. Sometimes
cut from the beginning of the video, the young farmers tell their stories of
how they grew up on their farms, and how much their farms meant to them.
