Kenny Chesney talks about his new single, “El Cerrito Place.” (:27)
“I think it talks about all of the measures that we all go to to feel loved and to get that certain thing back that is drivin’ you crazy, emotionally. And ‘El Cerrito Place’ has that certain insanity about it. The character in the song has this certain insanity that I think is very relatable with (laughs) a lot of people, you know, because there is this searching and longing that I think all of us have inside of us.”
Kenny Chesney says that “El Cerrito Place” is one of the standout songs from his Welcome to the Fishbowl album. (:05)
