The Eli Young Band has released some great songs in their over 15 year career, and they've
decided to put some of the best, some of the fan favorites, all on one album just for you.
It's called This Is Eli Young Band Greatest Hits, and one of the songs on there is a song
that I loved.
It was co-written by Big Machine music writer Laura Veltz, and I feel like it just has this
driving beat to it.
It was a number one song, I'm talking about Drunk Last Night, and the guys loved this
song because on the surface it sounded like a drinking, partying song, but when you listen
to the lyrics, it was much more than that.
I think Drunk Last Night was one of those songs that we needed this drunk, fun song,
but we've just never been those guys to have the beer drinking, raise your glasses kind
of guys.
We, I think, wanted more out of our music, but Drunk Last Night had such a different
idea to it than just this drunk, fun tune that says nothing.
We fell in love with the whole idea of you look at the title and you think it's going
to be this, but then you hear the song and it's actually that, and that's, I think, one
of the reasons that we felt like it did so well and why we loved it so much.
Drunk Last Night was originally on 10,000 Towns.
It was a number one song for Eli Young Band, but now you can find it on This Is Eli Young
Band Greatest Hits, which is available now, and here it is on Big Machine Radio.
