Trivia

Interesting facts about Make Me Wanna. By Songfacts.

Thomas Rhett told the story of this cut, which he penned with Jon Pardi producer Bart Butler and Ray Stevens' bass player Larry McCoy. "This song came out because I had just been listening to 'Stayin' Alive' by the Bee Gees," he explained, "and I went into a room with a few buddies. We wanted to write a song with country lyrics, but we wanted it to have the old '80s dance feel. That's kind of why this song has such a funky groove and is a great song to play live."


The song showcases an R&B side to Rhett. "I've got a lot of that in me," he told Billboard magazine. "I grew up listening to '(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay,' Aretha Franklin, Muddy Waters, and all the Rolling Stones stuff. I think that's where the soulful side of my voice comes from. It's not 100% bluesy, but I come from a lot of that. So to put out a song like this is really fun for me." "It's just a song that makes you feel good," Rhett added. "You just want to crank the windows down and have a good time with it."


The video was directed by TK McKamy, who also helmed Rhett's "It Goes Like This" and" Get Me Some of That" clips. The visual was shot in Nashville and features the singer performing a number of dance moves, which didn't necessarily come naturally at first. "Making this video put me a little outside my comfort zone," Rhett said. "I wanted it to have a little swagger in a loose, fun way and reflect that sort of Bee Gees feel the song has. I've never claimed to be a dancer, but me and my band love to goof off on stage, especially to this song. I wanted the video to reflect that and let everyone know it's OK to shake your hips a little bit."
