Fresh off the monster success of his smash, “Don’t Think I Can’t Love You,” Jake Owen is new on the radio with the energy and fun of a song his fans have wanted to hear on the airwaves for a long time: “Eight Second Ride.” It’s been a concert favorite for ages, and it’s just right for the summer because Jake had a vision of what he wanted to accomplish when he wrote it. Not only did he want to sing about some of the boy-meets-girl ritual he’s seen over the years, but he also says, “I just wanted to make people have a good time and have fun.” (AUDIO INFO BELOW)

  Jake Owen talks about the inspiration behind his great new single, “Eight Second Ride.” (:16)
“I just wanted to make people have a good time and have fun, and I took a wild, rowdy melody and wrote some lyrics in there about some friends and places I’ve been and the way I see, you know, certain people struttin’ around the dance floor and the way guys pick up girls and what really happens.”
