Sideways

Bentley told AOL that he considers this to be a really fun song. He explained: "I learned a lot from the record before with 'Free and Easy' - sometimes it doesn't take your most creative work to make a hit. Not to slight that song, but a lot of times I write songs that are really massive and have these choruses that could mean so many different things to so many different people, like 'Long Trip Alone.' And I learned on 'Free and Easy' that it is alright to put a song out there that people love and have fun listening to in their car." Bentley added that he wrote this tune, "on an airplane on the way to a gig and finished it with a friend of mine back in Nashville. Its just great to have a song out there that people can listen to and get away from their troubles a little bit and have fun."

The music video was directed by Michael Salomon (Metallica, Toby Keith), and features Bentley singing in front of a large party crowd. Bentley blogged on his MySpace about the clip: "'Sideways' is all about cutting loose and having a good time, and this is the most fun I've ever had making a video. The fans brought killer energy to the set. The choreographer and dancers were amazing and so talented. I was totally unaware that break dancing to a country song was even remotely possible until this video shoot! It was a total blast. This was such a fun song to write, and I hope it's one our fans will be cranking their stereos up to 11 to all summer long."

This was Bentley's seventh #1 on the country chart.
