Here's another country tune that's all about having a party. It's basically about a night of going out and getting what the songwriter calls "sideways". He's basically talking about getting smashed. There's all kinds of references to drinking, staying out all night, girls dancing around the dance floor, the DJ, etc. There's really nothing about this tune that suggests any of those sad country stereotypes.
The live performance of this song posted below is a great example of the over-produced country that's on the radio today. While I really like the song as a fun country, party song, it's hard to recreate the feel of the album in a live setting. It doesn't help any that their taking it several beats per minute slower than the recording. I'm not sure if that was intentional or not; it's possible, maybe making it easier for Bentley to sing. Still, it takes away from the groove.
