The album is very, very good stuff and it's not at all hard to see where most of the band's interesting melodies came from.
This song's chorus is very strong as well.

I heard him play this acoustically at the "Coyote's Fairwell Concert" (not exact name) in Louisville, KY and I really dug it.
As a side note, there were about 15 artists there that night performing 2-3 songs acoustically and it was pretty awesome. Great way to see a lot of artists I hadn't seen before and everyone that performed was very good.

I really enjoy this one. Not the biggest fan of the production in the chorus but the melody and lyrics are top notch. I don't think this will match the success of "Trailer Hitch" but perhaps a solid top 40 peak.
I think I found out a major reason why I enjoyed Sugarland so much (other than Jennifer's voice). I'm definitely going to get a hard copy of Southern Gravity when it comes out.

This song is actually really good and I wasn't expecting it. I didn't care for "Trailer Hitch" at all and I think this one is much better. However, I would be more excited about this song if I liked his voice. I'm just not a fan of it.

His voice is a lil' rough but I like it. I agree about this song. I hope it becomes a hit.

Meh, this is better than "Trailer Hitch," but his voice is still not something I enjoy at all. I really wish Sugarland would just reunite and make another record like Twice the Speed of Life.

I'm a little surprised we haven't gotten an add date yet for this one, though I'm sure that Streamsound wants this to not be thrown to the wolves with the way the chart is. As far as I know it hasn't been officially sent to radio yet, so an add date in late May or early June is what will likely happen.
Kristian's album is pretty darn good and definitely more commercial for mainstream radio than Jennifer's. I do think this was a good choice for the follow up to "Trailer Hitch."

Kristian said last weekend in various interviews for the ACM Awards that the song will be released in a few weeks to radio. So we'll see how that that turns into. He didn't seem to have a date when asked so it was simple "in a couple weeks/in a few weeks" to each person that asked the question.

WBEE put this up as their "music meeting song of the day" so I expect this to be given an add date either tonight in Aircheck and/or Billboard, or next week.

The Cumulus block has added "Light Me Up" this week. Kristian isn't getting a ton of airplay on those stations just yet, but at least it's something.

Official Music VideoThis is one of my favorite songs charting right now. Just like "Trailer Hitch", it took a few listens but I'm on fully board with this. I doubt it does much more than what its already done (which is chart) though.

Who knows, it just may be the first Christmas song to chart this season. Kristian has been wanting to release some Christmas music on his own for a while and since "Light Me Up" did next to nothing, Streamsound decided to release a Christmas song to radio, rather than a third release from Southern Gravity. It keep Kristian's name out there and the song is really good, too.
