Totally agree with the review of this song. Keith has big-time talent that often gets overshadowed by some of his posturing, and by songs that are just kind of silly.

…next to travis tritt’s “country club”, which is nothing less than a true country classic and conlee’s finely crafted “common man”, toby keith’ latest release falls a little short on all accounts. then again, it’s well done, well timed and it should be a lot of fun to sing along to its chorus in a honky tonk full of the song’s protagonists around midnight or so. thats what a i call a jolly nice and purposeful effort.

Wow, I saw the title and thought this was going to be another one of those crap songs we’ve been getting lately. The first couple of notes really surprised me, and this is a summer song I can get behind.

Of course His prior single (A song I also liked) was Beers Ago and I wonder what is up with his beer fetish lately. If we keep getting songs like these two, I say keep it going.

In fact, most of the guys on the radio today would have built a weak song around the eye-catching title, instead of a strong song which is far more interesting than even its title suggests.

That pretty much sums up my initial misgivings about the song before hearing it. I was expecting a song built around the title, and I didn’t think it would be good, but I really do like this. I’m not sure that it’s in my ‘A’ range, but I do think it’s a really fun record. Plus it actually sounds country!

I don’t know that I’d go full-on “A” for this one, but it’s far better than I was expecting, given Keith’s recent pattern of leaving his smarter cuts as album tracks in favor of singles that project a misleading, one-dimensional image of what he can actually do.

That the title includes perhaps my biggest grammar pet peeve (“that” v “who”) probably doesn’t help.

I like that’s also not directly about Beer either, just like “Beers Ago.” No doubt it will sell T-Shirts and Koozies and such though.

Glad I’m not out on an island w/this one.
