People were wondering what surprises Jason Aldean would have in store for the CMA Awards this year. I thought he would bring out Joe Diffie for a performance of 1994, but that didn’t happen. Fans were still in for a treat when Jason opened the show with his buddies Luke Bryan and Eric Church. It was a good performance.
The Only Way I Know – Jason Aldean
This probably won’t be a single. It just seems like there is too much red tape out there to keep duet songs from happening anymore. You just don’t see big time stars like this release duets because the labels get in the way of each other. It was still pretty awesome to see this performed live.
The song is about working hard and coming up strong. You only know one way to go about life because you’re taking after your parents and their parents. People work hard all over the world and when you grow up that way you really don’t know any different.
It seems like Jason, Eric and Luke are some of the hardest workers in country music so the song is fitting. Like I said earlier there is little chance this will actually be a single so it was great to see it performed live and still get to the country audience.
Do yourself a favor and check out this entire album. It’s great and I’m still curious about the next single.
CML Points: 80/100
Oh, I don’t know, it just might be the one to make a big splash as a single. The record labels must have given the OK to have Luke and Eric sing with Jason on the album. I may be a bit naive here, but this could be a win-win for the record labels and performers if it became a single. Wishful thinking, I’m sure.
It looks like now it’s officially a single. 🙂
For sure a big hit for all three. Great move.
That’s wonderful, but where did you get this information?
A few places are reporting it right from Jason himself including The Boot. I don’t know how they pulled it off, but the folks are Jason’s label were able to get Eric’s and Luke’s labels on board.
Today is Nov.19th and this morning CMT presented the CMA performance as Jason’s new video. Did you happen to see it?
