This is my favorite song right now. I just love the beat. Its pure country for sure. Also great drinking music. When I first heard it on the radio, I knew for sure that it would climb the charts to a popular hit. We need to get back to more great country music. If my past husband was still living this would be one of those hits that he’d play over and over!!! Great work Tim!

I couldn’t disagree more. I love the song. I’m younger so I do not know much about Kristofferson. But after listening to the song makes me think he would be a wonderfully talented romantic man that had a way with words. I have to say this song makes Kristofferson out to be “the MAN”. I love the song!!! And now I love me some Kristofferson!

Kristofferson is my new favorite song! I don’t understant all the hoopla about the name dropping. I love the song just for the song, let the rest go. Are you guys getting paid to review? Just listen to the song and enjoy and move on for goodness sakes!

Actually, Pat, I’m surprised that I don’t like this song more. I like today’s country, but I usually lean toward the traditional more. In fact, people have accused me of being a traditionalist in the past. I don’t think this song is a bad song; it’s just that it doesn’t inspire me much. I agree that Tim does sound great though.

fair enuff! I think opinions will break down on this song that people who like traditional country with a simple but strong message will like this effort (wish McGraw had half the emotion in his other songs he puts into the chorus of this), and those who don’t like that style will not be happy with this.

Pat, I think I can safely answer “no” to your question. When it comes right down to it, I guess I just don’t like this song too much. It’s boring and the lyrics don’t make it any better for me. It’s a song I would really completely overlook if it wasn’t for the title that is meant to pander/name drop that makes me pay attention to it at all.

Don’t really care for Tim McGraw. I think he’s put out some of the worst crap that is passed off as country that has come out in the last 10 years. But good songs are good songs. Think about this…if George Strait recorded this and called it “Write a song for you”, would you like the song or not. Don’t understand the struggle with the title.

leann you are focusing way too much on the fact that you feel kristofferson wouldnt sit down to drink and write a song. That isnt the point. Tim was just dedicating a song to someone he admires and draws inspiration from and that is where you get the title. maybe you should look at the rest of the song and not just the drinking part because its all about how tim feels what kristofferson put into his songwriting. This a great song. great rythm and lyrics. love it.

I love this song by TIm McGraw. Are’nt most love songs gone wrong tell of the same message? I love Tim’s country sexy tone. The song is picking up on Billboard chart- we’ll have to see.

Tammy Cassidy says it all – this is the kind of music real country fans want to hear. This is a classic – it is awesome – one of tim’s best
