Joe Nichols serves Gimmie That Girl

Monday, October 12, 2009 – Joe Nichols' new single Gimmie That Girl is out and appears on this week's Billboard country charts at 60. The up-tempo song made its world premiere on CMT.com. and is the second single from Nichols' soon to be released CD, "Old Things New" (street date Oct. 27 on Universal Records South).

"This song is getting great reaction from the fans," said Teddi Bonadies VP of National Promotion, Universal Records South "Wherever it's played, the phones are lighting up. In Nashville, Gerry House premiered it on his morning show last week, and the listeners gave it a perfect 10. This song is tracking as well, if not better, than any of Joe's previous big hits, and that's saying a lot. He has had some really big songs, from Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off to Brokenheartsville to The Impossible. We're very excited about the reaction this song is getting from both radio and the music fans."

"I really had fun with this one," Nichols said of the Rhett Akins/ Dallas Davidson/ Ben Hayslip penned song. "It's one of the catchiest tunes on the new CD and the beauty is its simplicity. Being a married man, I also like the message - telling your woman she's beautiful as she is - she doesn't need all that glamour. The woman you are right now, no makeup and just hanging out in a pair of old jeans and t-shirt -that's the woman I love."

CD review - Good Day for Living Yes, it's more than a little ironic that the guy who had a big hit with "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off," opens an album with a song called "Brokenhearted," which complains about how country radio so rarely plays sad, brokenhearted songs. Then again, there's a time to weep and a time to rejoice. And Joe Nichols does a little of both on his "Good Day for Living" album. To prove this point, Nichols follows his tearjerker opener with "I Got ...
CD review - Never Gets Old Joe Nichols is best known by many as the guy that sings "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off," so it seems like more than mere coincidence how "Never Gets Old" opens with "Diamonds Make Babies," another song featuring a lyrical example of anthropomorphism. Such a lyrical tactic may grow tiresome quick, but hearing Nichols' resonant, traditional country singing voice will never ever get old. Nichols is an extremely expressive singer, which is why he can sing ...
CD review - Crickets Joe Nichols suffers from a split personality. With a fine voice like his and songs from his past like Brokenheartsville, Nichols is strongly positioned to lay claim to being one of the very few last traditional country singers standing. There just aren't a whole lot of folks out there with the twang and phrasing (listen to how he holds the notes on the lead-off Just Let Me Fall in Love With You or the twang in Baby You're in Love With Me) out there like Nichols. One of the prime ...
