Crash My Party by Luke Bryan
Every time this song comes on, I remember back to 2013 when it first came out. I told a male friend of mine how I thought it was kind of romantic. As the man that he is, he told me that it was a “bootie call” song. To this day, I still disagree with him.
Some will say it is stereotypical country and they refuse to listen…
Some diehard country fans will refer to it as “Bro-Country” and they’re not fans of the new stuff…
Then there are those like me that find meanings in songs and drift away in to our own thoughts thinking about it.
“It don’t matter what plans I got, I can break ’em
Yeah, I can turn this thing around at the next red light
And I don’t mind telling all the guys “I can’t meet ’em”
Hell, we can all go raise some hell on any other night”
What girl doesn’t want a guy looking at her, basically saying, YOU ARE MY PRIORITY! He is telling her that no matter what, he will drop every thing and go to her. Here’s the important part – he will not make her feel guilty about it.
“If it’s 2 in the morning and you’re feeling lonely and wondering what I’m doing….
Go ahead and call me, call me, call me you don’t have to worry ’bout it baby
You can wake me up in the dead of the night, wreck my plans, baby that’s alright”
As a woman that has been through relationships and never truly made to feel like a priority, this is what I would want to hear from a man. He is allowing her to be her. He knows that she has an independent soul, and he gives her the space that she needs, but makes sure that she knows, he is always there for her.
The next time you hear the song, listen to it with that thought in mind…
If you’ve never heard it, google the song and watch the video. Not only is the very handsome Luke Bryan in the song, but so is his wife. If it was about “bootie calls”, would he really have her in there? I think not.
Men, make sure your woman knows that she is your priority.
That you will give up plans with your friends to be with her…
That she can call you at 2am to talk…
And women… If your man doesn’t agree with this, leave him and make your self a priority.
