Then she throws a fit, flings a vase at his head and storms out. He rejects her advances and the couple start fighting. In the video, Smith sulks in existential pain, then his girlfriend enters and tries to ease his sorrow by being affectionate.

The theme of hanging on in the face of adversity is a recurring one for Shinedown, and it echoes throughout the video for '45.' The clip was shot last month in Los Angeles by Glenn Bennett (Seether, Trapt) for a mere $50,000. It's just about shining through and making sure you believe in yourself.' 'It's just about shining and understanding who you are, and accepting you're not perfect but you have to be yourself. 'That's a song about triumph in the darkest moments of your life,' Smith explained. If 'Simple Man' is not released as the band's next single, the album track 'Burning Bright' likely will be, a record company spokesperson said. They also recorded acoustic versions of '45' and 'Burning Bright,' which may be released along with 'Simple Man' later this year. 'We felt the rest of the country might want to hear it,' he said, 'so me and Jason went to a studio in Orlando and recorded it acoustic.' Soon after, the song wound up on the Net, where it's been downloaded hundreds of thousands of times, according to Smith. It sounded so good that they played it live on the air at WAAF-FM in Boston about a month later. Shinedown played the song for the first time early this year at Judy Van Zant's Freebird Cafe as a nod to the owner for all the help they'd received. I felt like we do the song justice, and it represents us as a band and what we're about.' 'From the first moment I heard it, I thought it would be good to do as a rendition. 'It's my favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd song,' Smith said. Now that Shinedown are making a roar at rock radio with their single '45,' the group hopes to pay tribute to the Van Zant family by releasing the Skynyrd song 'Simple Man' as the next single. Smith even stayed in Judy's guest house during the recording of what became Shinedown's Leave a Whisper. That explains why Skynyrd helped Todd and singer Brent Smith find musicians when they were working on the demos for their debut album, which was recorded at Made in the Shade, a studio owned by Ronnie's widow, Judy Van Zant. The rocker is engaged to Van Zant's daughter, Melody, and the two will marry in October. In fact, if Ronnie Van Zant were alive today, Shinedown guitarist Jasin Todd's 3-year-old daughter would call him Gramps. Shinedown think of the Southern rock legends as more like family. Instead of tearing each other down, we need to stand together and help each other up when we fall.Many music lovers have considered Lynyrd Skynyrd a guiding light through tough times, a friend with open arms when there's no place else to turn for comfort. вЂњUnityвЂќ is a very powerful song with amazing lyrics.
