Listened to Rion Paige sing this this morning-what a song and what a gal!

"Blown Away"Music video

The video begins with Underwood's character wiping her hands and getting a drink before sitting down to do History homework. Her father is already a little drunk, and asks her if he could help her with her homework, claiming that he used to be really good at History. Even though she refuses her father's help, he continues pushing it until she decides to leave. It starts to irritate him to the point that he grasps her arm and shouts, "Hey! I am your father young lady!"
The scene changes to Underwood staring at storm clouds before singing. She is seen walking through a grave yard where her mother is buried and running home with the twister on the horizon. Her father is passed out on the couch and she cannot wake him up. While trying to figure out what to do, Underwood starts to think of the past and the times her father lets his drunkenness and anger out of hand. She then decides to head to the cellar alone, leaving her father sleeping on the couch. The video continues to flash back and forth between her father in the past, the rain and branches on him in the house, and Underwood singing in the cellar. Towards the end of the last chorus, the house starts to shake and fades to black, leading to Underwood coming out of the cellar to bright sunshine. There is a puppy running around Underwood's red boots and a long yellow path, both references to the Wizard of Oz, while she's singing the last lyrics of the song. The house is gone in the horizon.
