It isn’t often a debut single takes a genre by storm like this one did. When Gretchen Wilson burst on the scene with this, it was one one of those songs we couldn’t play enough. This was an amazing 5 week number one. It also was a Grammy winner and even Rolling Stone ranked it in the top 100 of the best country songs of all time. This would end up being her only number one hit, but the mark it left was incredible. It’s still very popular and it’s timeless. It also isn’t often a song becomes an anthem almost overnight like this did. This song was an absolute smash hit, and even though she didn’t have long term charting success, this is the song that every artist who goes to Nashville hopes to have. Also a really great star-studded video.
