Country music starlet Lauren Alaina‘s new music video for “Doin’ Fine” is already making waves. Between clips of broken glass and pouring rain, Alaina expresses feelings from her personal life through this emotional song. The singer shows her self-confidence in this song to let people know what exactly “doin’ fine” means. After all, people often say it to be polite, especially when the truth is the complete opposite of “fine.”
Alaina sings about a confusing time in her life where nothing feels normal. Instead of feeling alone in this situation, she recognizes that everyone has woulds that are healing, and they are doing the best they can. The video shows Alaina’s physical embodiment of these abnormal feelings. She gets drenched with rain, swings a light in the darkness and stands behind shattered glass. However, at the end of it all, she struts in confidence despite how she is feeling. She truly is “doin’ fine” with this hit music video.
Recently, Alaina earned her first CMA nomination for Best New Artist. The “Road Less Traveled” singer also scored her first No. 1 in April with the hit single, which is also the title track of her second studio album.

“Doin’ Fine” Lyrics
Daddy got sober, Momma got his best friend
I’ve cut down crying to every other weekend
Thanks for asking how I’ve been
I’ve gotten too good at hiding it with an
“I’m okay, things are great,” but the truth is
Yeah, the truth is
I’m doin’ fine enough to know that everyone’s a little broken
Fine enough to learn that hearts are best when they’re wide open
I’ve still got fear inside of me
I’m not okay, but I’m gonna be alright
For the first time in a long time I’m doin’ fine
I’m doin’ fine
Daddy signed the papers the day I turned 19
And Momma drove north to find her new beginning
I blamed God, I blamed myself
Then I found my knees and prayed like hell
It’s funny how a touch of grace gives you healing
Yeah, I’m healing
I’m doin’ fine enough to know that everyone’s a little broken
Fine enough to learn that hearts are best when they’re wide open
I’ve still got fear inside of me
I’m not okay, but I’m gonna be alright
For the first time in a long time I’m doin’ fine
I’m doin’ fine
Oh, these growing pains
Well, I wish they’d go away
But I guess you can’t be free without a fight
I’m doin’ fine enough to know everyone’s a little broken
Fine enough to learn hearts are best when they’re wide open
I’ve still got fear inside of me
I’m not okay, but I’m gonna be alright
Oh, for the first time in a long, long time I’m doin’ fine, yeah
I’m doin’ fine, yeah yeah
Daddy got sober, Momma got his best friend
But I’m doin’ fine, yeah yeah
