Carolyn Dawn Johnson - Georgia

[@susanclaire901]

I went through a horrible breakup years ago and played this song a million times.

[@denisemartin1895]

Why is she so underrated? Her voice and music is so amazing. I love Carolyn 🙂

[@magicslave3066]

I know right Canadians are so overlooked!

[@sharondvocs]

One of the best, and a great person too ❤

[@thedyslexic9936]

she is a well-known song writer and only decided to record a few of her own songs. i really enjoy her singing but her lane is writing to be sure. when she performs with some really good singers, it shows...but as I said. I buy her stuff.

[@chrisbarrett4378]

Shes one of my favs.. loved her for day 1 of hearing this song

[@shawnmurphy2047]

Agree she’s incredible

[@thouston322]

Met Carolyn backstage at a Kenny Chesney concert in 2001. She was so sweet & gave me a big hug and squeezed me lol great hug. Very pretty and short like me lol.

[@Riogi]

Carolyn is the real deal. I love her voice and music.

[@robcharreviews5609]

it's a shame that most of the country artists that are the real deal don't get the recognition that they deserve. I agree Carolyn Dawn Johnson is the real deal, and yet she deserved more recognition then she got, she still got quite a bit of recognition but she deserved more though. I loved her music from the late late 90s to 2008-2010ish. I wish she would do more though

[@nubelialeandro3722]

So much talent. Love your music then & now always. True Canadian Country Singer. Keep keepin' on Carolyn.🫶🍁❤️ Hamilton, Ont.🇨🇦

[@releitse88]

This was my ultimate favourite song when I was 12. Literally 20 years later, I can't believe that I still remember all of the words.

[@MegaCrunkGirl]

Same here.

[@destinywatson7311]

Another example of an awesome Canadian country singer!😄😃😀

[@user-hu8hw1qg5r]

You must be related to her or something. She sucks

[@magicslave3066]

@@user-hu8hw1qg5r i have seen worse canadian country music that are trying too hard!

This Canadian girl has such a beautiful voice....love her !

Carolyn Dawn Johnson (born April 30, 1971) from Grande Prairie, Alberta is a country music singer-songwriter. n 2001, Johnson released her debut album Room with a View. The album's first single "Georgia" reached No. 4 on the RPM Canadian Country Singles Chart for the week of November 6, 2000. "Complicated" was a Top Ten hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart. Her next single ("I Don't Want You to Go") was also a Top Ten hit in the U.S. After a three-year hiatus, Johnson returned with the single "Let Me Introduce Myself". It was the lead single from her fourth album, Love Rules, released in 2010.

[@ziggler1991]

2000 was the best year in country music, georgia, flowers on the wall, horseshoes, it's always something, born to fly, so many classic songs from that year

[@TheShospitali]

Has it been 21 years already where has time gone? What she up to now had a crush on her. Anyone here in 2021?

[@jumpfart666]

I love this cd so much!

[@jocelynvizzusi3886]

CDJ fan since the beginning! Refreshing to hear this song again!

[@WeekendsWithG]

Fell in love with this song the very first time. It just makes sense and its so honest.

[@jefflawson5113]

She's just an awesome singer

[@timrickard895]

I saw her live in a small venue in Annapolis, MD. I was totally infatuated with her. She came on stage and showed her new ring and announced her engagement. Oh well, it was still an incredible show!❤️

[@stonecupcake]

This song was my life blaring from my iPod when I left Texas last year. This year I'm in Nevada and I won't turn around. I love it!

[@canadiancinderelly3518]

Good job, sister.

[@northernredneck3436]

YES! This time next year I'll be in Nashville! 💜🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@RayyRayyRAWr]

My mom and dad we’re together for ten years, but only married six. My sister and I were really young when they divorced, but I remember a lot of yelling and fights that broke out. My mom has left before and came back, but the final time she left I will never forget... we got to see her every other weekend and Wednesday and I remember my sister and I saying play the “Georgia song.” It wasn’t until I was i older that I realize the love and importance of this song and how it must have been uplifting for my mother. Beautiful song. FUN FACT: my mom ended up remarried to my amazing stepdad from Louisiana, I guess she made it all the way there and didn’t turn around

[@susanclaire901]

BEAUTIFUL voice! I have this CD.

[@andreaagombar6132]

Her talent surpasses most American female country singers. I never get tired of listening to her songs.

[@72Katharos]

Brittany B okay there's no reason to try to use gender to insult and belittle. Taylor swift is actually pop country. entirely different genre, no reason to be so rude, friend.

[@user-hu8hw1qg5r]

Surpasses?? Frick. Her vocal talent hasn’t even started to climb. Her voice is average. She’s a great writer but her voice killed her career. She should have kept handing her work to artists with unique vocals. Carolyn’s voice is very plain. Who cares she can hold a note. So can I. But I wouldn’t be trying to sell music with it. She thought she was better than she was. Her music would have went further if she wasn’t so delusional.

[@pkemboi]

Anybody here in 2019? I'm feeling particularly nostalgic

[@davidalexander828]

i remember having the CD and playing loud leaving Columbia SC headed to California.

Who's here in 2024 some songs don't just fade! I loved this songs since my high school life through university and now working! Can't get out of my mind! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@bobtomlin2306]

This song, the abum it leads off - Room Wirh A View - and the follow up album - Dress Rehearsal - are superb and are, by far, two of the best discs that have been released since 2001, if not since 1990 !!! Carolyn AT HER BEST. I love this. Sure has a special place in my heart. So good to hear AND see 😊💘

[@wfoj2]

listening here in 2024. She sounds seems even better than my memory.

[@paulelliott3220]

CDJ is brilliant Only 4 albums but she writes so powerfully and is a wonderful singer Couple of Christmas singles that should be no1 each December too Great song indeed

[@alanwest8982]

Carolyn is such a great talent, such a special voice. From what I heard the music execs tried to make her into something she's not. They should have let her be and do her thing, which was great. Sometimes talent doesn't need to be "managed" it just needs to be shared with the rest of the world as it is, pure, simple and unspoiled.

[@user-hu8hw1qg5r]

What talent?

[@tombillard5264]

She wouldn't bow to the master's so they keep you down.

[@matteohunteros]

I like the song and I rarely get swayed by visuals but the empty wedding dress box and the discarding of the dress in the river embodies the pathos that is oftr=en in country songs but not always felt or realised by listeners. Carolyn you sing with emotion and that speaks volumes. Your x factor is a bonus for those of us who have vision and age is irrelevant. I love what you are doing and how you present. x o

This artist and song are not underated, just not heard and appreciated. Great song , beautiful artist. Thank you .

[@tylergannon76]

Carolyn is my favourite singer!!!

[@Artie_ODaly]

Still absolutely one of my favorite songs of all time - and the ultimate road-trip/blast-it-in-the-car/windows-down song.

[@MrSilicon605]

THOSE LYRICS WORK BOTH WAYS

[@WestboundContrail]

Love her on the vintage car.

[@DaveWollenberg]

Carolyn hit #25 in Billboard, 2-3-01. Why'd she include her middle name? Was there already another Carolyn Johnson in the business? Somebody in the now, please let me know. God bless ya, for your effforts. Have a blessed week!

[@user-hu8hw1qg5r]

Wow. Surprised she hit 25. Obviously she fell off the charts. Some irrelevant basement singer trying to be something she’s not.

[@josevanrooy]

beautiful song Carolyn.

[@kalmanizer]

WoW!! She sounds sooo much like Country Music Singer Deana Carter and I LOVE Deana Carter's voice!! :)

[@user-hu8hw1qg5r]

OMG! Don’t you ever compare this irrelevant piece of wannabe to someone like Deanna Carter. Have respect and keep your basement singer where she belongs. In the basement pretending she has talent. Deanna Carter HAS talent and is beautiful. This Carolyn is a nobody

[@cesaralcaide213]

i love like her music.so sweet.

[@zagi60]

nice voice nice song , beautiful Carolyn

[@purpletreesftw80]

This song helped me not take my husband back for the third time. And then the jerk moved to, get this, Georgia.

[@martinknaebel6137]

A great voice ,a great singer,writing her songs on her own.You can hear this music as often as you want,it will never get boring. Let´s celebrate the rebirth ouf country music

[@user-hu8hw1qg5r]

I never re-listen to it. I bought one album with the song complicated on it. Sing is good but her voice is not a voice that can be listened to over and over. She sucks. Her voice is best in a karaoke bar. She has no uniqueness to her vocals at all. Worst 20 bucks I ever spent.

[@carolyneisler6923]

What, a wonderful gift...

[@georgemelvin880]

Smiles, hi Carolyn 🌺

[@ziggler1991]

i wanna go there too, become a singer and move to Georgia would be a dream come true for me

[@MrPissed1]

she is amazing

[@kamloopshype3936]

THIS ROCKS!! I see BC, Alberta, Sask...what is Nelson in there? OMG...this cracks me up! I love it. Love the song...but maybe the song should be remade for Canadians.

[@mr.chocolate3721]

Is this song country music?

[@Mind_Body_and_Soul]

If I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia Then I guess I'll be Alabama bound There was a time when I'd do anything for ya But this time baby, I won't turn around I always wanted to get married, and I thought you were the one But you never ever asked me and I was tired of hanging on You know a girl can only be let down so many times before she runs And now this little bitty town's only got room for one of us You always said I'd never leave and if I did I wouldn't go far So I know how I must look with my tank o' gas and beat up heart Baby I'm gone for good, you can count on that I'm gonna keep heading west ?til I'm too far gone to come back Yeah And if I'm not over you, by the time I get to Georgia Then I'll be Alabama bound There was a time I'd do anything for ya But this time baby, I won't turn around I only got ten miles to go before I cross the state line I can feel my hands shaking, ?cause they usually turn the wheel around about this time I heard that same ol' voice inside, I had to drown it out So I found me a radio station playing something fast and I turned it up real loud And if I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia Then I'll be Alabama bound There was a time I'd do anything for ya But this time baby, I won't turn around There was a time when I'd do anything for ya But this time baby, oh I won't turn around Oh I won't turn around If I'm not over you by Georgia, then I'll head to Alabama Roll on to Mississippi, or maybe Louisiana I'll drive all the way to California I won't turn around No I won't turn around No I won't turn around No I won't turn around

[@laripsa76]

love how she is singing about georgia but wearing a canadian maple leaf!!!!

[@jocelynvizzusi3886]

Larissa Fike sounds like she is leaving somewhere to get to Georgia to get over someone, maybe leaving Canada....although she says that she will keep heading west til she gets to Georgia. Can’t drive west and arrive in Georgia from Canada, lol. ;). Nor anywhere for that matter, lol.

[@bruceyoung1652]

Well she is originally from Westlock Alberta

[@tjacobs990]

Jocelyn Vizzusi you’re right Georgia is south or south east from Canada l never noticed that

[@sammiunni5679]

I was JUST about to say that hahahha

[@wm3098]

It had just poured that day filming Carolyn wearing Cdn flag tee in North Van. I was holding the umbrella for her as the assitant makeup artist and we were waiting for the rain to let up so they could continue filming. She was super nice and never complained once.

Big Fan Wess Hemeon

[@suprapike]

If she eanyed american success she needed that im the lyrics also georgia is a meaphor anyway for wherever you could be heading

[@user-hu8hw1qg5r]

Ya. Don’t get too excited. She will never be anyone special. Her voice could be a challenge for karaoke singers but it’s no challenge for the talented vocalists out there. She should have stuck to writing for real singers like Chely Wright and Martina mcbride because her voice will never be able to compete with talent like that. She would have went further and made more money if she recognized that. But she was delusional and fell flat on her face. She may as well go back to wherever she came from. She’ll be famous there only.

[@mikejessmax]

She was 1 year ahead of me in high school in Westlock. Remember her well

[@freckledklutz]

@samanthawholover Yup I am pretty sure she is from Alberta but look it up to be sure!

[@TheVeryAgilePM]

Sooooooooooooooooooo true

[@brassplyer]

@ziggler1991 "..she just turned 39 today and she looks like she is 40 in this video .. " . Yes, you're absolutely correct to point out that she's very talented.

@gordon777777 ".. Interesting how we make lyrics that will sell to the Americans.." . Hmm. This one uses US state names but aren't there many country songs with lyrics that don't hinge on specific geographic references?

[@r9nger]

Did a bbc article bring anyone else here?

[@jovetag6225]

The song's co-writer grew up in Louisiana. Maybe they should have split the difference and written a song about Nebraska.
