Turning Home

This Kenny Chesney and Scooter Carusoe penned song is the third single from Country music artist David Nail's debut album, I'm About to Come Alive. Chesney gave the song to Nail after deciding not to record it for himself.

Nail explained to The Tennessean that as soon as he heard the demo for this song, his attention was drawn to it: "I just knew that this was that song that I had been searching for, probably the entire time that I'd been in Nashville," Nail said. "Being from a small town in southeast Missouri, all the imagery in the song was something that I could really relate to. I can close my eyes and be back in that small town - Friday night football game - I just love it."

Though Nail loved this the first time he heard it, he wasn't so happy when he realized that Kenny Chesney was the man behind the song. "I fell in love with the song long before I knew Kenny Chesney had written it," Nail explained to The Boot. "In fact, if anything I was a little saddened by the fact that he did write it, because I just assumed that it was borderline impossible for me to have the chance to record it. And we actually suffered through a couple of different Chesney records waiting to see if he was in fact going to record it."
