NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Friday, November 14, 2014) – Country music star and Scotty McCreery recently picked up three RIAA Platinum certifications with hit songs – “I Love You This Big” and “The Trouble With Girls” off his Mercury Nashville / 19 / Interscope Records No. 1 debuting first studio album Clear As Day, and “See You Tonight,” the Top 10 lead single off his second consecutive No. 1 album, See You Tonight.

Scotty McCreery (See You Tonight) OC: …my baby. :34
“‘See You Tonight’- that’s my baby. It’s the first song that’s really been out there that I’ve written and recorded so it’s special for me. When we wrote that song and got done with it, we looked at each other and we’re like, ‘This is a pretty cool one.’ So singing that one and hearing it on the radio – hearing it on the radio, if you ask my friends, it’s the one song that I don’t cut off that’s mine when I hear it on the radio. Because it’s like that. You sit back and you think about when you wrote that line and can tell stories about it. So when I hear it on the radio, I crank it! Most of the times I hear myself or anything – if I see me on TV, I’ll change the channel. It’s kind of weird. But not that song. That’s my baby.”
