Kip Moore Returns To No. 1 With 'Hey Pretty Girl'
. Up All Night was the best-selling debut album from any country artist released last year. It's also the first country album released since 2008 to earn three back to back No. 1 songs. To understand why that last fact is impressive, note that Moore is only the third artist to achieve that since the chart's inception. Numbers aside, it's Moore's music that is the most impressive, and "Hey Pretty Girl" is no exception. Moore visited Radio.com recently and explained how the song came together. "Hey Pretty Girl," he explained, was written with one of his "dearest friends," Dan Couch (the pair also cowrote "Somethin' 'Bout a Truck"). Moore came up with the concept for "Hey Pretty Girl" after his guitar player, Dave Lapsley, came to him when he learned his wife was pregnant. "I met Dave right when I moved to town," Moore recalled. "Dave and I used to really hit the town hard together. He was my wild running mate. Dave settled down and got married, and about three years ago Dave's wife told him she was pregnant. I didn't have a record deal yet, and he was still trying to grind it out with me. He came to me and was like, 'My wife's pregnant, and I've got a kid on the way, and we need to make this thing happen now.'" Moore explained how there was a whole new dimension to his friend.
