At the end of the video it would show a ghost Cadillac that flies into the night sky, referencing that his father, Hank Williams , Sr. had previously died while in a Cadillac.  The video was the first ever to win the CMA Music Video of the year. It would be released in October and become an instant hit amongst fans.
