Текст песни Here Tonight (Commentary) - Brett Young

Man, I hope he called her number and got back in touch with her

That's the title track off Brett Young's brand new album, which
Is available now. It's called "Ticket to LA," and we are talking
To Brett about this album. He had a hand in writing many of
The songs on the album, including this next one, which you've
Probably heard because it's his first single off of "Ticket to
LA." It's called "Here Tonight." It's one that Brett wrote with
Ben Caver, Justin Ebach and Charles Kelley from Lady Antebellum
So interestingly enough, you actually wrote this song when you
Weren't in such a good place, but you told me that this song
Actually reminds you of one of the happiest times in your life

So I think we did. We wrote "Here Tonight" intentionally vague, kind

Of the same way that "In Case You Didn't Know" was written. You

Don't want to get so caught up in details that you tell such a

Specific story that people can't make it their story. And what's

Nice about that is, with "Here Tonight," it's about those moments in

Life that you wish never had to end. So at any stage in your life

That could be about any given moment. You know, for me, when we wrote

"Here Tonight," I wasn't engaged yet. And so at the time, and I

Couldn't even tell you what it was, but it definitely applied to

Something else, obviously. Maybe in writing that song, we were all

Drawing from a handful of those moments. Now listening to that song

Now that it's the single and it's out and it's at radio, when I hear

It, it makes me actually go to the night that I proposed. I remember

I proposed, she said yes, and then the first thing we did, 'cause we

Were excited, was we started FaceTiming friends and family. But I
Remember in the middle of that process of FaceTiming, we kind of had
This realization that, like, "We're not really being present in the
Moment right now. We just got engaged and now we're taking it to the
Streets. We need to put the phone down and we need to be in this
Moment together." And so we did that, and that moment when we decided
To, like, actually be in the moment, from that moment on, it was one
Of the best moments, I think, in my life. And
So "Here Tonight" and being in the moment, that
Makes me think of the night that she said yes

Aw, I love that. And I think we've all got those moments in
Our life that we just wish would last forever. That's what
This song is about. It's off Brett Young's brand new
Sophomore album. This is "Here Tonight" on Big Machine Radio
