“You, Me, And Whiskey” ..Is a great song from Justin Moore and Priscilla Block. They just released the video for the song and Justin says it’s pretty spicy. “It’s definitely the spiciest, sexiest, most sultry, whatever you wanna say, video that we’ve done. And in talking to our team about what we wanted the video to look like, it just kind of lent itself to that, to me, and we haven’t done that. And so I thought it was kind of cool, and I didn’t have to take my clothes off and get in bed, so that’s even better. It wouldn’t be that had I had to.” which is why he hired two actors to play the married couple.
