ON MY WAY HERE - Tracks from Clay Aiken's new CD harmonize with romantic, historical, and social themes from movies and television. Graphic by Amazing_CA.
Pass the Popcorn, Please!
Eons ago when I was a kid, Saturday afternoon meant a bus ride downtown and 2-3 hours filled with the latest Hollywood magic playing in our local movie theatre. Cost was minimal for the bus token, picture show, and buttered popped. Definitely eons ago!
Today I didn't even have to leave my computer to grab a couple of movie clips set to two favorite tracks from Clay Aiken's latest CD, On My Way Here.
The first, a photo/video montage by SueReu, is dedicated to the turbulent love affair between Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler in the 1939 classic "Gone with the Wind." Clay's "Everything I Don't Need" is the perfect accompaniment to scenes by Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable.
Grab some popcorn, and enjoy this look back at the famous film set in the South during the Civil War and Reconstruction. Afterwards, you may just want to rent the whole DVD. You can read more about GWTW here.
Scarlett - You're Everything I Don't Need
Posted by NeverLetGo414, the second montage features scenes from Titanic, a monumental film made a decade ago. Directed by James Cameron, the story centers on a ficitional romantic tale of a rich girl and a poor boy who meet on the ship's ill-fated voyage.
Leads in the 1997 film are Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. A full summary can be read here.
Titanic - As Long As We're Here
For a mini-concert, stream the five OMWH video performances by Clay at AOL Music. The popular Clay Aiken Sessions include "Ashes," "Everything I Don't Need," "Where I Draw the Line," "On My Way Here," and "Something About Us."

I have to give it to the montage makers. They do such a great job of matching video with Clay Aiken's music.
Clay's music NEEDS to be in the movies!!!!
Thanks so much for this - Titanic was WONDERFUL!!!
Clay Aiken can sing anything he wants, and I'll be the first in line to listen.
Thanks for the 'home movie' idea - guess I better go get some popcorn!!
oops, in all my excitement to hear that wonderful music set to movies I forgot to say
Well done Clay!!! Could there be a Clay Aiken song in a major movie in the near future???
*fingers crossed*
What a fun way to share Clay Aiken music! The Gone With The Wind montage was really good. On My Way Here fits so many situations--it's a wonderful song.
Love this with Gone With The Wind. Great idea.
What a great combination! One of my favorite movies of all time, "Gone With The Wind", combined with one of my favorite songs from Clay Aiken, "Everything I Don't Need"! Wonderful job with the montage, thank you for posting it! That song is just perfect for those clips.

I really love these montages. Clay Aiken sure sings good. :)
Loved hearing Clay Aiken singing to scenes from Gone with the Wind--would be great to have a song of his in the movies and better yet, have him act as well in the movie!
Wow, I love the Gone With The Wind video. Clay Aiken's song goes very well with the story.
The montage makers in the Clay Aiken fandom are amazing. Wonderful work!
With all the movie vids being made by Clay Aiken fans I am sure it won't be long before someone will use him on a future movie track. Had my popcorn and enjoyed myself watching these vis. thanks Caro.
Whooo! Wouldn't it be cool to see Clay Aiken on the big screen?
Excellent montages! I hope that maybe someday, some smart movie-maker will include a song by Clay Aiken in a blockbuster movie.

Enjoyed your blog and the videos! Love Clay's songs with these great movies --
Caro,
You got me there! When I read the title, I thought Clay will be starring in a movie. He's more than qualified to do one and should sing all the soundtracks as well. That'll be a real treat! Thanks for the montages. Love them all especially the Titanic.
If Clay ever hits the big screen, the movie theaters will be in for a big surprise.
I love all these Clay Aiken montages!! His music fits in perfectly everywhere!! Hollywood....take notice!!
Clay Aiken and Gone With the Wind!!! it doesn't get any better for me. Thanks for the terrific videos.
Oh, I cannot wait to see Clay Aiken on the big screen. And I know that someday it will happen. Talent like that does not go unnoticed.
"As Long As We're Here" worked perfectly with the Titanic clips. It really does need to be used in a movie.
Sigh,those were great video montages.
Clay Aiken's new CD has something for everyone. Thanks for the videos.
There are some very talented people in the Clay Aiken fandom!
What could be better than my favourite movie of all time, GWTW and Clay Aiken singing, perfection!
Both are award winners :)
Thank you Caro for the movie night. I was so taken with Clay Aiken singing the perfect songs for these super movies I forgot to eat my popcorn!
These montages are so much fun! *sigh* I love these movies and can listen to Clay Aiken at the same time. Nice job!!!
GWTW and Titanic, 2 great movies/stories set to Clay Aiken's music. Very nice.
I love the videos, especially Titanic, one of my favorite movies with my favorite singer Clay Aiken singing my favorite song from his CD! That was just simply ... great!
Lovely work here. Clay AIken and movies just go together.
Lovely work here. Clay AIken and movies just go together.
Clay Aiken should be headlining in a movie - he is so talented.
Neat idea-although Youtube on dialup is painfully slow! Take care and God bless.
Love Always, Cynthia AKA Crazy4ClaynTN on the OFC.
