Chris Young won’t say if he’s dating anyone right now, but the multi-platinum hitmaker it’s inside amazing connection in the music video for his tender song “What She Sees in Me”.
“I’ve always kept my relationships private,” Young, 38, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview. “But I hope that this song and music video will inspire other couples and that they will want to use it at their wedding to tell their own love stories.”
Even so, the exclusive behind-the-scenes video for “What She Sees in Me,” premiering exclusively on PEOPLE, showcases the chemistry between the country star and actress Kelly Bartram as they play out the intimate events of their longtime relationship.
“Kelly was really great to work with,” Young says of the actress cast by directors Alexia Stone and Stephen Kinigopoulos. “She’s such a great actress. I think my favorite scene to shoot together was when she surprised her coming down the stairs.”

Another surprise of the music video is the scenes where Young can be seen playing the piano, a task he often leaves to Seth Costner, who plays keyboards in his band.
“It’s such a romantic lyric and the piano fits the song perfectly,” Young explains of the heartfelt “What She Sees in Me,” which will soon appear on the 18-track album, Young love and Saturday evenings set for release on Friday. “I started learning to play the piano when I was still living in Murfreesboro, and I still play, but mostly I want to leave it to the pros.”
Unsurprisingly, Young admits he was a little nervous about sitting down at the piano in the video.
“I called one of my co-writers before recording ‘What She Sees in Me’ because I wanted to make sure I was playing the right chords,” recalls Young, who co-wrote the tender song with Christian Davis Stalnecker, Kyle Fishman, Ray Fulcher and Josh Hoge. . “I found out that he jumped from the pit in the gym and broke his arm! [I] I had no idea so I had to sit down and relearn the chords before recording.”

It was another crazy part of the day that included shooting not just one video, but two.
“We shot the music videos for ‘What She Sees in Me’ and ‘Right Now’ in November on the same day in the same house in Nashville,” says Young, whose current single “Young Love & Saturday Nights” continues its climb up the country music charts. . “It was an intense day of filming. We shot ‘What She Sees in Me’ for about six hours and then went back to ‘Right Now’ which takes place at night and took about another four hours to shoot.”

And different lyrics created for two very different music video treatments.
“The ‘What She Sees in Me’ music video shows the intimate details of a long-term relationship,” says Young, who will begin his own Young Love & Tour Saturday Nights 2024 this spring. “‘Right Now’ shows a lot of vulnerability and that in-between stage of a relationship.”
