Following back-to-back No. 1 singles “Sleep Without You” and “In Case You Didn’t Know” from his self-titled debut album, Brett Young has revealed his third single, “Like I Loved You.” The breakup tune, which was co-penned by Brett and Jesse Lee, will officially impact country radio on July 17.
“Falling in love or falling out of love—those are the easiest songs to write because it’s just straight from personal experience,” says Brett to Nash Country Daily. “I think everybody’s felt both of those. Everybody’s been in love, everybody’s had heartbreak. We noticed that when we put together the 12 songs that would make the [self-titled debut] record, there was not a party song on this record. I’ve written a ton of party songs and not that there’s anything wrong with that. I think, in trying to tell my story and let people get to know me, it seemed like we should talk about things that I’ve lived.”

Craig Morgan is remembering his son, Jerry Greer, on the one-year anniversary of his death today (July 10) with a heartfelt message and a series of photos on Facebook.
Jerry, 19, died on July 10, 2016, after a boating accident on Kentucky Lake in Tennessee.
In the initial Facebook post, Craig states: “My daughter said it best, July 10th . . . It’s someone’s birthday, someone’s anniversary, someone’s celebration for a new job, someone found out they were having a baby, but for me and my family, it’s the day we lost Jerry Michael. It’s hard to put into words how sad I am, yet at the same time, I want to celebrate and praise my Heavenly Father for His perfect plan for our lives. Jerry lost his life on the lake, so today, I’ll be in the water, wishing he was with me but knowing he’s with my Savior! To God be all the glory.”
Jerry is survived by his parents, Craig Morgan and Karen Greer, sister Aly Beaird and brothers Kyle Greer and Wyatt Greer. Our continued thoughts and prayers go out to Craig, Karen and their family.

Thomas Rhett scored his eighth career No. 1 single as “Craving You” hit the top of both the Mediabase and Billboard Country Airplay charts today after only 15 weeks.
“Craving You,” which features vocals from Maren Morris, is the fastest rising single of TR’s career. Penned by Julian Bunetta and Dave Barnes, the tune is the first single from Thomas Rhett’s upcoming third studio album.
“I heard this song went number one this morning while I was on vacation with my family,” said Thomas Rhett. “It just reminded me how everything about this song has been fun. From having Maren sing on it, to making a really rad video to just feeling the energy from the fans each night when we play it live. It’s an unbelievable way to start out this record . . . I really can’t wait to share more.”
