Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about A Little More Summertime. By Songfacts®.

Written by Jerry Flowers, Tony Martin and Wendell Mobley, this song finds Aldean mourning a summer love lost: "'A Little More Summertime' really hit me the first time I heard it," Aldean said. "It's always been about the vibe of a song for me. So when that chorus hits and the song takes off, I knew it had to be on this album."

This was one of the first songs Aldean and his producer Michael Knox found for They Don't Know. "There was just something really cool melodically about it; it was a little different than some of the things we've had in the past," the singer told reporters. "The thing that really grabbed me was the U2 guitar stuff going on right before the chorus. You know, that was kinda the vibe I gave [the band] when we went in to cut the song; I was like, 'If there's a vibe we're going after, it's U2. Just think about that when you're playing it.' It was just really cool."

Wendell Mobley provided the vocals on the demo, which set a high standard for Aldean to follow. "He sang the daylights out of the demo, and it was one of those that you listen to and you go, 'Man, I hope my version sounds as good as the demo because his was really good,'" Aldean recalled.
