Dillon Carmichael

"I've got a collection of these special moments, and that's one of them ..."

From unlikely churches to lifesaving masquerades, this week's country videos are rich with emotion, wit and sentiment.

Carmichael learned a lot from his famous uncles Eddie Montgomery and John Michael Montgomery, but there's one lesson he had to learn the hard way.

They told him he'd have to pay his dues, and he did. He has. He is.

"I fell in love with it, and I said, 'I'm gonna cut this song one day,'" Carmichael remembers, "and then, like, four years later, I cut that song, and here we are."

The gritty performance calls to mind some classic country greats.

He's dancing away with our hearts, too.
