Rhett tries to "Remember You Young"
The song is a reflection of childhood friends, marriage and children. Rhett once again teamed up with collaborators Jesse Frasure and Ashley Gorley ("Unforgettable, "Marry Me, "Life Changes").
Rhett previously released the hit single "What God Gave Her," "Don't Threaten Me With A Good Time" featuring Little Big Town and "That Old Truck."
"We wrote this song about the people in life that we love, and always remembering them in their youth no matter how much time passes and we all change," Rhett said. "There's something sentimental about remembering your very best friends who have real jobs and families now tearing it up in college, or picturing me and my wife with no cares at the Tin Roof back in Knoxville. I love that the last verse is a bit of twist with it all coming full circle. It actually makes me emotional...it's easily one of my favorite tracks on the album.
The upcoming album is the follow-up to "Life Changes," which received a Grammy nomination for Best Country Album. On May 17, Rhett kicks off his Very Hot Summer Tour in Spokane, Wash.

CD reviews for Thomas Rhett
Thomas Rhett's "Where We Started" begins with a wonderfully positive relationship song titled "The Hill." Over a quiet, acoustic guitar arrangement, Rhett sings of how a successful marriage is the hill he wants to die on. In other words, if he's going to fight for anything, he's going to battle for his romantic partnership. Unsurprisingly, Lori McKenna had a part in writing it. When it comes to setting the right priorities in life, McKenna is one of our greatest ...
Thomas Rhett is in the artistic zone. Rhett Atkins' boy never really struggled to get noticed, but starting around 2015, his impact went nuclear – "Die A Happy Man" wasn't just a number one, but a monster that stayed there for two months. The ACM Award for Entertainer of the Year still carries a lot of weight, and Rhett nabbed it in 2019.
Still, Rhett's sound has its doubters – a lot of the air-quote country hits were grafted to other dance, pop and soul styles. ...
Thomas Rhett represents a dilemma for traditional country music fans. Namely, that he doesn't create much country music that appeals to traditional tastes. Although "Center Point Road" doesn't entirely reverse that trend, even during its most overtly pop moments, this new collection of songs is still a pretty good one.
The best song is also a love song - to a truck - titled "That Old Truck." It's the kind of song that only makes sense within country music circles. ...
