“I’ve just always written things that are simpler… just things that I like and my fans still like,” he said. “[Fans] would just rather have something that makes their day easier.”
Jackson added further to the carefree feeling of the song when he released its music video, directed by notable music video director Trey Fanjoy. The video shows Jackson performing with his band on a stage in the middle of a road, and is most notable for its many extras who star in it.
