Miranda Lambert - Kerosene

"Kerosene" is the title of a song released in late 2005 by American country music artist Miranda Lambert. The third single and title track to her 2005 album Kerosene, the song reached #15 on the Hot Country Songs charts, becoming Lambert's first Top 20 country hit. The working title of the song was "Kerosene (Loves Givin' Up On Me)."

Although Lambert wrote the song herself, she gave co-writer's credit to alt-country singer Steve Earle, as she felt that the song had a similar melody to his "I Feel Alright".

Music video

In the music video for Kerosene, Miranda carries a tin of kerosene, letting it spill out leaving a trail as she walks through the countryside singing. After she finds her boyfriend cheating on her in a bed in the middle of a road, she lights a match and lets fire to the kerosene. The flame burns all the way back to her boyfriend's house and sets fire to it.

The video was featured on CMT's 100 Greatest Videos, where it was ranked at #78
