And while we were hoping that the camera would catch his adoring family in the crowd, it didn't. But they were there — wife Lauren and the singer's two daughters, plus one on the way — all looking their sparkling best.
A passage in the Bible inspired "Remember You Young" — really! Rhett tells Billboard that the verse "Always look at your wife in her youth" (Proverbs 5:18) stuck out to him.
"Remember You Young" is Rhett's second single from his newest studio album, Center Point Road. The album earned an Album of the Year nod at this year's CMA Awards, while Rhett himself also received a Male Vocalist of the Year nomination.
