History
Florida Georgia Line debuted the single at the 2015 Country Music Association (CMA) awards telecast in November 2015. Brian Kelley, one-half of the duo, told Nash Country Weekly that "[It] bookends the album—with 'Dirt' really well... I think it closes the Anything Goes chapter."[2]
Content
The song is a mid-tempo ballad about a man who "takes a late-night drive through the country in an attempt to clear his brain" and "takes stock of his life", ultimately praying to God while drinking beer.[2]
Critical reception
An uncredited article about Anything Goes published by Taste of Country stated that "The songwriters penned a chorus that's both emotional and sonically satisfying, and Moi does a fine job in amplifying the message."[1]
The song first entered the chart at No. 39 on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart,[3] and No. 47 on the Country Airplay chart on its release.[4] The song peaked at No. 7 on Hot Country Songs for chart dated April 9, 2016,[5] and topped the Country Airplay chart dated May 7, 2016.[6] Florida Georgia Line joined Zac Brown Band as the only country acts to have four songs reaching No. 1 on Country Airplay from each of their first two albums.[7] The song has sold 293,000 copies in the US as of May 2016.[8] It was certified Platinum by the RIAA on May 23, 2017.[9]
