Thomas Rhett will follow up his 13th No. 1 hit with the release of a nostalgic new single, âRemember You Young,â which will impact country radio on July 15.
Penned by TR, Jesse Frasure and Ashley Gorley, âRemember You Youngâ is featured on TRâs fourth studio album, Center Point Road, and follows the release of the albumâs lead single, âLook What God Gave Her.â
âWe wrote this song about the people in life that we love, and always remembering them in their youth no matter how much time passes and we all change,â Thomas Rhett said. âThereâs something sentimental about remembering your very best friends who have real jobs and families now tearing it up in college, or picturing me and my wife with no cares at the Tin Roof back in Knoxville. I love that the last verse is a bit of twist with it all coming full circle. It actually makes me emotional . . . itâs easily one of my favorite tracks on the album.â
The 16-song album takes its name from the street in his Tennessee hometown that shaped much of his life experiences. TR co-penned every track on the album, which also features a whoâs who of top songwriters, including Shane McAnally, Karen Fairchild, Rhett Akins, Josh Osborne and more.
In addition, the album features a number of collaborations with other artists, including Kelsea Ballerini (âCenter Point Roadâ), Little Big Town (âDonât Threaten Me With a Good Timeâ) and Jon Pardi (âBeer Canât Fixâ).
âFor me, Center Point Road really symbolizes what it was like to grow up in Hendersonville [Tennessee],â says TR. âFirst dates, first football games, first heartbreak, first kisses, success and failures. I really feel like that road shaped who I am today, and it felt fitting because the record, for the most part, is pretty nostalgic.â
