Kenny Chesney’s Song About ‘Getting Off The Couch’
Kenny Chesney has a lot to say about his latest radio single from his Born album, a song called “Just To Say We Did.”
Kenny told us in a recent interview of his latest song, “‘Just To Say We Did’ is about getting off the couch of your life. It’s about connection. It’s about intimate details of your life that will stay with you forever.”
He added with a smile, “It’s about…in a lot of ways, living life to the fullest and doing things for no other reason than to make you feel alive.”
Fans are loving the new song as they pack his summer stadium tours. His “Sun Goes Down tour” continues its trek across the nation through August with Zac Brown Band, Megan Moroney, and Uncle Kracker.

After lightning strikes delay postponed his Phoenix stadium concert for a day, Kenny Chesney ran into some more heavy rain on tour at his Mile High Stadium show in Denver last week.
Chesney played to a personal best of 60,529 members of No Shoes Nation. On their feet from the moment the walk-on music began, they were a synchronized ocean of arms waving from side-to-side in time to “American Kids,” “Everything’s Gonna Be Alright,” and “Get Along,” as well as tour rarities “Save It For A Rainy Day,” by friends Matthew Ramsey, Brad Tursi and Andrew Dorff, and “Never Wanted Nothing More,” by Chris Stapleton.
He said after the show, “Denver always brings the best energy. Something in the air out there that makes them love music in such a special way. You can feel their joy and the way they experience these songs in a very real way up there.”
Kenny spent two days before the show at the Broncos’ training camp and two hours each day in their weight room. Chesney hosted the team to reciprocate. He also brought Sean Payton, head coach of the team and a friend for over two decades, onstage for a particularly moving “Boys of Fall”; the pair also brought a young girl onstage to receive a signed Broncos helmet.
The football-loving country superstar said, “It’s such a special bond people have with their football team, whether it’s little kids playing pee wee ball, high school’s Friday night lights, or college. And when we made the video for ‘Boys of Fall,’ Sean helped us capture what goes into it with a speech to his high school’s team – and being able to do that with him was awesome.”
