Luke Bryan has recorded tons of hit songs throughout his career as one of country music’s biggest stars, and one of his latest tracks “knocked me out” the first time he heard it. Bryan credited “storytelling at its finest” as he spoke about his song “Up” in a new TikTok on Wednesday (June 1).
“The song ‘Up,’ the second I heard it, it just knocked me out. I mean, it truly embodies small town life,” the Georgia native said as he shared clips from the studio, recording the song. “Just that phrase ‘Up,’ and how the songwriters were able to make that a whole song (that) touches on every aspect of how I grew up. …You know, some songs, when you hear ‘em, you’re like, ‘that one is tailor-made for me to sing,’ and that song is definitely that.”
Bryan previously released a nostalgic music video for “Up,” which is one of 16 tracks on Bryan’s deluxe edition of Born Here Live Here Die Here, that released last year. “I could not be prouder, not only of the message of this song, but also how this video turned out. I hope everyone enjoys watching it as much as I have,” he shared at the time. Watch his latest TikTok here:
