You know that feeling when a song suddenly understands you better than a person can? That’s what happened when Lainey Wilson shared a simple clip of herself singing “4x4xU” straight into the camera. Posted on July 4, 2024, it didn’t feel like a performance, it felt like someone letting you in. The way she sang about love, escape, and being seen made fans stop scrolling and just listen. Because sometimes, a quiet moment says everything you’ve been holding in.
“4x4xU” is a song about love that rides shotgun. It’s about freedom, but not the kind that leaves someone behind. When Lainey sings it, there’s a calm confidence in every line. The lyrics speak of backroads, oceans, and open skies but at the heart of it all is the idea of together. In this stripped-down version, the feelings are even closer: intimacy, ease, and a little bit of wildness.

Fans watched the clip and instantly connected with it. Comments filled up with people saying they felt like she was singing just to them. Some mentioned playing the song during long drives or slow dances under porch lights. Others simply said it reminded them of the kind of love they hoped to find. The simplicity of the video made space for those memories to rise.
That sense of closeness draws a sharp but beautiful contrast with the official music video for “Somewhere Over Laredo.” Where “4x4xU” feels like a moment captured between breaths, “Laredo” is full of wind, dust, and dreams. Released alongside Lainey’s Tough as Nails exhibit at the Hall of Fame, it shows fans where she’s been and what she’s carried with her along the way.
