Thomas Rhettâs 2017 album, Life Changes, has spawned four No. 1 singles: âCraving You,â âUnforgettable,â âMarry Meâ and âLife Changes.â
TR is trying to make it five in a row with his current single, âSixteen,â which is No. 3 on Billboardâs Country Airplay chart this week.
As TR told Kix Brooks of American Country Countdown, the message behind his nostalgic track, which he co-penned with Sean Douglas and Joe Spargur three years ago, is to âreally enjoy your life.â
âI wrote âSixteenâ when I was 25 years old,â says Thomas Rhett. âIt was one of the first songs I wrote for Life Changes, and for a long time, I thought that âSixteenâ would be the name of the record. I thought it would be the first single, and as you start to write, you start to figure out whatâs first, whatâs last, whatâs secondâand âSixteen,â to me, is one of my favorite songs Iâve gotten to write because I think that that story is so relatable to so many people. All of us that are young want to be old, and all of us that are old want to be young, and I think that song, really, the message is just be content where you are and really enjoy your life.â
If TRâs Instagram page is any indication, it seems like heâs really enjoying his life with wife Lauren and daughters Ada, 1, and Willa Gray, 3.
