27 years ago in 1995 when this song was a hit, a friend and I were in training in Oklahoma City. At the end of of one day, when we were both tired and discouraged, we found ourselves at an intersection of Interstate 40. Sweet Jo Dee comes on the radio. My buddy kept a large amount of change in his cup holder. He reached down and picked up a quarter and smiled at me. I smiled back and said “flip it!”. He was from South Carolina. I was from California. Life just throws moments at you like that.
Haha, that's awesome! I grew up in NC and went to college in Wilmington which was at one end of I-40. I always thought it was cool that there was a sign as you got on the highway leaving Wilmington that said 2,554 miles to Barstow, California. Got my imagination going! 😁 Kinda reminds me of another tune, California Dreamin' ... Or maybe Going to Carolina in My Mind, haha!
That's your ingorant opinion! The song was #1 for 4 weeks in a row so the majority of others could say otherwise 😂 Cole reborn a real classic with permission from her. This comment is a Disgrace lol
Cole brought me here, I must say I am 100% a hip hop and RnB fan but the CMAs have stolen my heart. I came in the house and turned on the TV and am completely mesmerized ❤ beautiful music I am willing to open my heart to!
90’s r&b like Aaron hall in ‘92 is the shit… then I’ll switch to slimesito or glock40spaz, then Ill switch to the outsiders from the 80’s or some grunge then back to 90’s r&b and when I wanna feel some typa way I’ll put on country music from the 50’s-80’s (it’s just better than country from the 90’s)
Jo Dee was doing a show at Coytes in Louisville Ky and my sister and I had lost our parents in a horrible situation. We went to see her because her music touched us so very much. Our Momma loved it. After the show we actually got to meet Jo Dee and set and talk with her. Absolutely sweetest and very talented lady❤️ I listen to her music ALOT still to this day🎵🎼🎵
Mary Rose Taylor. yeah thats what I have heard about her is that she is very nice and down to earth and is conservative and old fashioned which thats fine with me , yeah all her videos are great , did u ever work on any other videos of hers ?
I like this song your not in Kansas anymore and I like the song I'm alright and the video I'm alright because she was wearing tight leather pants in it
I'm going to discover North Carolina for the first time this weekend. I'm very much looking forward to it! From what I've seen, Raleigh looks like a pretty cool place!
15 Years ago, I came to visit California on a job interview. After meeting with the new boss, I drove to the beach and sat in my rental car, wondering if I should move out west. Something told me to turn on the radio. When I did the first song that came on was "Heads Carolina, Tails California." I knew at that moment I should move, and I've loved every minute of my life in Los Angeles. Jo Dee sealed the deal for me. :)
glenn212now so does the eastern Carolinas. Really high unemployment rate in southeast nc around Jacksonville and Wilmington. Sad but true. And the jobs don't pay worth crap
I still remember being 16 years old. i was at a Tim Mcgraw concert and he was personally introducing Jo Dee Messina when she was just starting out and she played this song. I've loved her since. and I still sing this song loudly.
I don't know another music genre that has turned it's back on it's roots more than country...if I hear a country song older than 2 years on the radio, I'm surprised...
Aug 25, 1970 - Jo Dee Messina is born in Holliston, Massachusetts. After releasing her first album in 1996, she becomes a significant performer by mining strong, survivor themes, taking the Country Music Association's Horizon Award in 1999! Happy Birthday Jo Dee!!
Man I really miss 90s country! What a great decade for country! Great memories! I consider it the golden age of country music. Jo Dee Messia was and always be one of my top favorite country music artists with her vocal power, control, and projection as well as energy both in the studio and live.
Grew up listening to miss jo dee , roots are always are foundation for what we stand for and pride is always what need to keep us going, thanks Jo Dee.
Yep! Saw the latest country fest on tv a week ago, and it blows big time. Every turn used to highlight a different type of person and race, even if they and the song sucks. Have to have fat, disabled, LBGTQ? Male, LBGTQ? Female, trans sexual, rap, etc., even if they wouldn’t win a neighborhood talent show. Country has gone to Hollywood hell.
My British girlfriend played this song for me in my car and suggested we drive somewhere. No map, no plans, no nothing. A weekend we spend somewhere the wind takes us. We drove 600km until we decided to stop and spend the day there. It was probably the best fun I've ever had traveling somewhere. I like a bit of country music, but after this, I looked up a lot of country and loved it. We still do this today, 2 years later... Every weekend we set out somewhere, depending on how much time we got and at the very least, we eat out somewhere we've never been before. As someone who likes to plan things and make sure they go according to plan, doing the exact opposite with my girlfriend has been fantastic. Sure, we've been at sucky restaurants and stuff, but that's life. Ups and downs, you just gotta ride the waves.
@@segasys1339 I'm 31, she's 26. We decided to enjoy the good life a bit longer. In a few years we will probably have kids, but right now... we want to enjoy life in our prime.
I love Cole's rendition of it! Was watching the CMAs and she made an appearance near the end I loved hearing them together! I hear both songs on the radio!😍
Yes! There are songs that we hear that rise up from our memory and remind us of those special times. Doesn't matter who you're with or what you're doing. For me anyway.
This is one of those free-spirited songs basically saying the world is a huge beautiful wonderful place, and if you're unhappy with your current situation in life, and the place were you're at GET UP and get MOVING travel go someplace any place else. And if you don't have any money to get a plane ticket or bus ticket that's fine get a backpack use your feet and just start walking.
Just heard this ,I'm from NC coast ( born and bred Carolina) lived in Maui, Lahaina(mountains and beautiful beaches)Colorado(breckenridge, 3 seasons, lucky experience)and Carolina, wilm. Wrightsvillebeach( always goin to Carolina in my mind)Loved them All!! It's hard when you love them all but my heart's in nc! Love this song! It makes remember to take a chance, go with a few hundred dollars (@mom as co-pilot and dream, it was a while ago when you could actually do this, early 90s) but you can still flip a coin! Good luck!
My wife and I met in Tucson Arizona around the time this song came out. Since then We've lived in Raleigh and Redondo. Can't help but feel a connection to this song. ❤
Love there, guys. Woke from coma couldn't remember girl? Boy? Potty trained at late 50's. Remembering these guys today dancing to them again. Knew there was a reason to learn how to walk again. Had to Dance God's Blessing follow you always. CONNIE SHERRELL
remember listening to this song on my greyhound trip to Corpus Christi, TX. I never looked back. hobo'd around for a while before I found a place North Texas. I miss traveling. its an addiction. Especially running off with a girl you just met. Had some real adventures back in my twenties
I love all parts of America and 16 years in California with traveling to Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, and South Dakota the past 7 months, I look forward to California again for pit stop and then maybe Georgia again. Our country is great. God (Supreme Intelligence) Bless America.
Jo Dee, you have come a long and deserved way from the MCMMA Jamboree days, honored to have known you all these years, may Almighty God continue to pour out His grace on you abundantly! Thanks for sharing your incredible talent with us all!

yea I agree man she is hot and member she wore a pair of skin tight leather pants in her I'm alright vid I mean women look hot in leather pants I think
I loved this song when I was younger and, though I’ve heard Cole Swindel’s version a bunch now, today’s listening of that just made this one live rent free in my brain today! 😁
Nothing beats what she's singing about. Just taking off for the weekend. A road trip, no where in mind, just driving til you're almost on empty, stopping at the closest town...ahhh.
What an amazing time we had at Beach It Music Festival here in Virginia Beach , Virginia... Baby you rocked it and then Cole Swindell brought you back out to give u the the applause you so deserved for head's Carolina ... that's for all u do. BTW. I'm the one who gave you the flowers that are sitting on the piano when u opened for Reba in Raleigh. Love u

I agree so have u seen all her music videos cause I like this song and her song your not in Kansas anymore and I like I'm alright and like the video to I'm alright cause she wore leather pants in that
Not a big country fan, I first heard this song when I was locked "in between" in my life. This song helped me to make my decision and look back without regret. I'm grateful, Jo Dee Messina!
I absolutely LOVE and ENJOY this song so much! Heard it for the first time at the beginning of the year and it's one of the few songs that really make me happy and dream again if I am down and about. :) #Amazing
This song was out after my buddy and I finished college. We decided to drive off to Virginia and North Carolina (from Wisconsin) to check the scene for possible jobs and re-location. Although, Cali was never an option, N.C definitely was and this song (at the time) was a clear memory as we drove around the country with that North Carolina destination. It was one of the last wild and crazy things I did with that friend before all the trappings of adulthood. Such a nice memory. If you're young, and want to do something fun and crazy, take advantage of that before you're "too mature" haha.

Glad to see Cole Swindell bring this song back!! Being born and raised in North Carolina, I choose the Carolinas!!! Thanks Cole! ❤️
He completely disgraced the song.
I agree with you there! I hope that maybe they will record a duet together. These two would be smoking hot as a duet

She is singing about South Carolina not North Carolina duh
South Carolina native here and I will always choose the Carolinas.

Lmao me too I love 90’s and 80’s music from all genres… everything from then is better than todays shit

Thank you Cole for bringing new country fans back to the 90’s! We love both versions🖤🙌🏼
Great song.
He did it proud.
She was also the Bartender in his video.
How are you feeling Nick I know Steve said you were bouncing off the walls how are you feeling with the mess
Well said! I love how Cole's song is a play on this classic song.
Yeah, im only here off the back of the Cole Swindell song, never heard of this tune before, its boss
Prayers fo Jo Dee as she has disclosed she has cancer and is discontinuing her tour to fight...we are all behind you all the way!!! Fight the fight!!!

Didn't know that my prayers 🙏 go out to her as well

90's baby here. Grew up listening to Jo Dee and listen to Cole swindles version brings back so many memories 🩷 "she's a 90's county fan like I am"
Hated country music most of my life until I hit 30s and get it now
I'm not even into Country music, but this song slaps!!!! Jo Dee is a badass! ❤❤🎵🎵🔥🔥
She is a badass
90's country was an entirely different animal
💯 💪
So beautiful it brings tears to my eyes. Any man worth his salt has always wanted a woman to say this to him. And mean it.
And she beat the cancer and is again touring.
God bless you Jo Dee
This song epitomizes why 1990s Country Music is the best..... never again will we see music like this
Jo Dee Messina was a true country singer - true talent!

She still is! :)
IS a true country singer. She's on tour!

Jo Dee was my very first ever concert I got to go to. I love her so much. Back when country was country and singers rocked my County Fair!
I just love her voice.
Yeeasss🎉🎉🎉
I saw her in a small theater many years ago and she is fabulous .. a true talent
Jo Dee Messina the real deal. So, glad I got to see her many moons ago.
I agree so have u seen all her music videos cause I like this song and her song your not in Kansas anymore and I like I'm alright and like the video to I'm alright cause she wore leather pants in that
Not a big country fan, I first heard this song when I was locked "in between" in my life. This song helped me to make my decision and look back without regret. I'm grateful, Jo Dee Messina!
Love me some Jo Dee Messina! She makes a song her own.
This is such a cute song. Jo Dee Messina
Has a beautiful voice. If I had a choice
Between Carolina or California, I would
Definitely choose Carolina.
I absolutely LOVE and ENJOY this song so much! Heard it for the first time at the beginning of the year and it's one of the few songs that really make me happy and dream again if I am down and about. :) #Amazing
YESS!
I love Jodie Messina. Me and my grandson listen to Jodie Messina everytime

WOW this takes you back !!! Great song Love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song was out after my buddy and I finished college. We decided to drive off to Virginia and North Carolina (from Wisconsin) to check the scene for possible jobs and re-location. Although, Cali was never an option, N.C definitely was and this song (at the time) was a clear memory as we drove around the country with that North Carolina destination. It was one of the last wild and crazy things I did with that friend before all the trappings of adulthood. Such a nice memory. If you're young, and want to do something fun and crazy, take advantage of that before you're "too mature" haha.
