Jason Aldean Regrets Passing On One Song
It’s interesting to hear artists talk about “the song that got away,” a song they could’ve recorded but didn’t for some reason, and then it became a huge hit for someone else.
For Jason Aldean, that song was Luke Bryan’s “Drunk On You”.
Jason heard it first but passed on it because he was looking for a specific kind of sound to finish an album he was doing.
He liked the song, but it just didn’t fit. The big regret came a little later.
“Luke came over and played me some songs off his record and that was one of them and I was like ‘ughhh.’ It went on to be a big ole hit for him. [But] I believe songs land where they’re supposed to land.”
