Brett Eldredge had to wake up pretty early this morning (Sept. 30) so he could head on over to NBC’s Today set to perform his current single, “Wanna Be That Song.”

Brett began the segment chatting briefly with hosts Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb—who were gushing over the 6-foot-5-inch tall singer—about his “dreamy” blue eyes and his recent single, which currently sits at No. 23 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart.

“I want people to listen to this and have it take them back to that moment they fell in love or the big moments in their lives and that’s what this song is all about,” Brett told the hosts. “I love to sing, this is my favorite song I’ve ever written I think.”

With that, Brett kicked off “Wanna Be That Song,” from his latest album, Illinois. He returned in the 10 o’clock hour to perform his No. 1 song, “Drunk On Your Love.”
