To follow-up “Keep In Mind,” the duo released a song I first heard them perform in their energetic live show in 2009. That very first time I heard “You Got Me" at that show, I told a radio friend also in the audience that the song should be the single the duo releases to radio. And here we are, three years later, with the song now released to radio as the their follow-up single to “Keep In Mind” and first Billboard chart single “Here Comes Summer.”
There are songs that describe a new relationship without any real feeling and then there are songs like “You Got Me,” which makes the listener feel like they’re in the relationship described in the song. That warm, fuzzy glow of a new relationship and all of the feelings that come with it are present in “You Got Me” which is more than enough for me to heartily recommend “You Got Me” to listeners everywhere.
Everything about “You Got Me” gives off a feel-good vibe and it expertly showcases how a song can take the feelings that are associated with being in love and put them to song. It’s not cliché, it’s not corny. “You Got Me” is warm; it’s heartfelt and it’s downright catchy.
Hopefully the gatekeepers at country radio do allow “You Got Me” to be the hit a song like this deserves to be.
