I'm really not a country music fan, but this is one of my favorite country hits from the past decade. It went Top 10 on the Country chart in the summer of 2005. This always reminded me of Fleetwood Mac with more of a country twang and obviously the redneck lyrics. Etta James recently covered this on her final album.

I love Little Big Town, and this is a great song. Its undeniably one of the catchiest songs of its kinda, and it manages to not sound like a cliche and substandard song, which it easily could've been.

Kind if burnt out on this song to this day but I still love the song itself. I believe this will be the song they are best remembered for other than "Pontoon".
It also didn't go top 10 til January of 2006. It was released in the summer of 2005.. :)

I love this song. It's one of my favorites from them, and it has held up well with me.

I'm burned out on this one, and I prefer their newer material much more than their older offerings. That said, this is really unique, and I feel like they made their mark with this choice, for sure. I have a friend who HATES Country music, but adores this song. I've always found that incredibly ironic, since it's undeniably Country in so many ways .

The first Little Big Town song I ever heard I've always loved it from the first time I heard it. I only knew this song and "Bring It On Home" when I went to see them live for the first time, and ever since then they've been my favorite band. This song will never get old and I will always adore it. It would be impossible for me to get burnt out on a LBT song.
