(AUDIO) TWO NUMBER ONES DON’T TAKE THE PRESSURE OFF FOR BRETT YOUNG

Brett Young has had both of his first two singles make it to number one on the charts, which might make some people think he feels a little less pressure in his career, but he says, “What are you talking about? No. Now I’m terrified because my expectations have been set and I’m worried that not every song will follow suit, and so it’s even worse after the second one doing it, in the best way.  I mean the athlete in me now wants to win again next time.”

Brett’s new single is “Like I Loved You” and even though he still feels pressure, he says, “(the fact) we have this kind of momentum going into the next single is very exciting.”

Brett Young – two #1’s  :34

“I remember after the first number one everybody went ‘Does that kind of take the pressure off now?’ What are you talking about? No. Now I’m terrified because my expectations have been set and I’m worried that not every song will follow suit, and so it’s even worse after the second one doing it, in the best way. I mean the athlete in me now wants to win again next time and so it’s been really, really flattering and humbling that a song like this is the one that has had this much success, because you know coming with a sappy ballad is always kind of risky, and so the fact that people have kind of connected to this one the way that they have and you know we have this kind of momentum going into the next single is very exciting.”
