Interesting facts and trivia about Burnin' It Down. By Songfacts®.

The first single from Jason Aldean's sixth studio album, this was written by Rodney Clawson (Luke Bryan's "Drunk On You," Jason Aldean's "Drink On It"), Chris Tompkins (Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats," Chris Young's "Voices") and Florida Georgia Line members Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard. The same quartet also penned together Florida Georgia Line's hit tune "Get Your Shine On." The clincher for Aldean upon first listen was a reference to one of his favorite musical groups. "It mentioned Alabama," he said. "I'm a huge Alabama fan, and anything that makes reference to something I'm a fan of, it's cool to have it in there."

Aldean has previously launched albums with uptempo tracks like "My Kinda Party" and "Take a Little Ride," but this seductive cut marked a change in gear. "Sonically, this track definitely feels like something different for me and what I have typically put out as the lead single off my previous albums," the singer said. "I've pretty much always gone with a really guitar-driven song that's pretty in your face, and this is more of a laid back thing with a really cool groove."

Aldean performed the song for the first time publicly at his Cleveland show on July 18, 2014.
