Montgomery Gentry’s lead single from You Do Your Thing struck the charts hard and immediately became a sensational single, nailing the No. 1 position on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs, and carving out a spot on Billboard’s Hot 100 – making the song the pair’s biggest crossover hit to date.

The song speaks to the heart of any person driven forward divinely by their burning love for another; boldly underlining the stark truth that nothing matters but the love they share and through that – they can surpass any hurdle.
