"You can just kind of hang out. We've got some guidelines to go by, but it's wide open."<br /><br />"I am a country music fan," Kristen adds. "I've presented at a variety of country music awards shows in the past because I am a fan. I don't know how I got here. They invited me, and I squealed! I obviously said yes. I'd never been to Nashville before, so I'm very excited."</span></div>

The song's video, making its world premiere right here on The Boot, brings to life the upbeat lyrics. Filmed at Family Wash, a restaurant and music venue in East Nashville, the clip shows two very different scenes but just a few feet apart: one stressed-out businessman sitting alone outside the restaurant, while Jerrod, his band and buddies are inside having a great time. When the rain starts to pour, will their two worlds collide? Watch below to find out.<br /><br />"The video for 'Shinin' On Me' is meant to show you that you don't have to let the storms of life ruin your day," the country star tells The Boot.</span></div>

"I pulled out some of the old theatre skills from back in my high school days!" says the country star.<br />
<br />
In 'I Don't Want This Night to End,' Luke meets a gorgeous blonde and falls head over heels, but we don't know how their love story ends. She disappears, and he tells his manager (played by video director Shaun Silva) to leave a ticket for her at his next show. 'Drunk on You' picks up two months later, with Luke having left tickets for his mysterious lady at every single show he's done since meeting her ... to no avail. Will she finally show up? Watch the world premiere of Luke's 'Drunk on You' video (below) to find out.</span></div></div><div class="continueReading" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial;

Suntan City.' But while he takes his role as an entertainer very seriously, the Georgia native admits he is ready to have a good time, too.<br />

"It's the only show of the year that I drink while I perform," Luke tells the <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-bialas/luke-bryan_b_1322982.html" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #704000; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Huffington Post</a>. "It seems like the thing to do."<br />
<br />
The 35-year-old has returned to the same northern Florida town every year since he started doing the 'Spring Break' albums in 2009. "Growing up in South Georgia, Panama City was where we always went to," he explains. "That's where we always did spring break. Actually, my wife and I, we spent a spring break down there our first year we were dating. It's a fun area!"</span></div></div><div class="continueReading" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial;

That all changed, though, when 'All Your Life' became their first multiple week chart-topper, riding the crest for two weeks.<br />
<br />
"Any No. 1 song is special, and this is the final single from the album so we were excited to wind down with a No. 1 for it," Kimberly Perry tells The Boot. "Plus it is the first bona fide love song we've released to country radio, and it went No. 1 around Valentine's Day. Reid and Neil are hopeless romantics and I am the spitfire of the group, so they were excited about that."</div></div><div class="continueReading" style="background-color: #fff7ea; border-bottom-width: 0px;
