Thomas Rhett’s latest song is “What’s Your Country Song.” It is on the cusp of becoming his latest #1 single.

“What’s Your Country Song” is all about that song that evokes a memory or makes you want to turn it up and sing along every time it comes on. Of course we want to know, what’s Thomas’ country song?

He says, “I think if I had to pick my country song, it would probably be something by Eric Church … ‘Cause I think going through middle school and high school, he was my idol in country music.”

If he had to pick just one of Eric’s songs to answer “What’s Your Country Song”, Thomas knows which song would be his answer to that question.

“I just remember listening to ‘These Boots’ over and over and over and over again. I just loved how simple it was, how stripped down it was and the story that it told. ‘Cause I think we all have been in those places where, whether we’re wearing boots or tennis shoes or whatever it is, you’re like, dang, these things have seen a lot of life and a lot of crazy memories, a lot of sad memories, a lot of the good ones. So, I think ‘These Boots’ would be my country song.”
