Kenny Chesney Blinks Twice
October 23, 2007
2nd Single from Just Who I Am: Poets & Pirates Is #1 A 2nd Week
Moving even faster than “Never Wanted Nothin' More,” the 5 week #1 and lead track from Kenny Chesney's Just Who I Am: Poets & Pirates and 2007's longest running #1 to date, the celebration of a-long-life-in-the-matter-of-seconds ballad “Don't Blink” spends its second week atop Billboard's Top Country Singles chart. In that classic Chesney mining the moments that define us way that has become his trademark, the man from Luttrell, Tennessee continues touching people who're waist deep in living lives with every fiber of their being.
“I think I understand that song in ways that I couldn't have living the way that I do,” Chesney says, thoughtfully. “It seems like me and the guys were just hitting the road in one bus, taking turns sleeping on the couch up front 'cause there weren't enough bunks with the diesel fumes somehow leaking back into the cabin… and how here we are with all these trucks, playing football stadiums.
“I have no idea where the years went, they just did… and I think in a way, it must pass even faster for people who're still enough to really be in those moments instead of rushing from place to place. To me, especially given the stories people are telling me in meet & greet and since we've come off the road, this is a song that reminds people to pay attention, to not take things forgranted, to know that these are the moments that make up a life… if you cherish them as they happen.”
CONGRATZ KENNY!!
