Jake Owen is red-hot on the radio with his latest smash, “Alone with You,” and there’s definitely a sexy quality about the song. But Jake says there’s also a part of the song that’s saying “don’t mess with my mind,” and when it comes to that kind of relationship, he’s been there. (AUDIO INFO BELOW)
- After performing last week on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Jake was back on late-night again this Tuesday to sing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! If you missed it, check out “Barefoot Blue Jean Night” on the ABC site here, and scroll down the page to see “Alone with You”!
- In the February 24th issue of Entertainment Weekly, the magazine surveyed radio programmers for their predictions on the “Next Big Hits,” and among the predictions from country radio’s Jon Anthony is Jake’s “Alone with You”! Noting that Jake will be on tour with Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw this summer, Jon predicted that while Jake’s been building up his share of hits (like “Barefoot Blue Jean Night”), “‘Alone with You’ is the one that stadiums full of people will be singing back to him.” Pretty cool!
- “Alone with You” and “Barefoot Blue Jean Night” are both from Jake’s terrific album, also titled Barefoot Blue Jean Night!
- Be sure to catch Jake next week when he appears on the Thursday, March 1st episode of Chelsea Lately, airing at 11pm, ET, on E!
Jake Owen says that he knows that “Alone with You” feeling. (:14)
“It’s this song that’s got this passion to it of ‘don’t put your lips up to my lips and tell me you can’t stay,’ and don’t tease me, you know, like, don’t mess with my mind. And I’ve had girls, (laughs) girls totally try to pull that on me before.”
