About

Brad Paisley has never been one to hide his tender side, and on his rootsy, playful debut album, he finds plenty of room for big, heartwarming country ballads. "We Danced" condenses an entire rom-com into three sweeping minutes, while "He Didn't Have to Be" expresses gratitude toward a stepfather who embraced the narrator with open arms. Paisley’s humorous side is on full display as well, with "Me Neither" rattling off a series of failed pickup lines over racing guitar and dueling pianos.
