Deep Soulful Sounds Fuels Delta Rae 's Bottom of the River (Video)



When I came across this video for a brief few seconds on the VH1 Top 20 video countdown today, I was immediately taken by the song with its rhythmic footsteps and southern baptists vocals.

To paraphrase SNL's Stefon: "This video has everything: Thumping southern soul, a blonde wailing like Dusty Springfield and a group of African American fraternity steppers in Kabuki masks and hoodies."

I wish the video ending's cleared up the interesting beginning, but this song is so rich, you can look past the video's gaffe.
