Music video

"How You Live (Turn Up The Music)" was the first video shot by the group since 2001's "Begin With Me", and was the first to feature Leigh Cappillino as a member of the group. The video shows images of each group member savoring special moments with their families, as well as scenes of the quartet in a vast field at sunset, and during a performance at the Alabama Theater. The video was directed by the Erwin Brothers and was shot in Birminham, AL.

Live performance

Heather Payne is the lead vocalist in the song. When the group became a trio due to Payne's retirement, Cappillino took over the lead vocals, with Denise Jones and Shelley Breen providing the harmonies. The song has also been pitched in a slightly lower key, in order to fit Cappillino's range. The group made its debut as a trio at the Grand Ole Opry in late June 2008, showcasing their new sound.
