Content
Nichols told Country Standard Time that he considered it "one of the catchiest tunes on the new CD" and that he liked its "simplicity."[1] Rhett Akins and Ben Hayslip began writing the song in 2008; Akins told The Boot that the two had "already been working on this idea of writing a song about telling the girl who's all dressed up because you're going out."[2] They had originally decided to title the song "The You I Want to See" or "The You That I Like Best" until Dallas Davidson added the line "gimmie that girl" to the chorus.[2]
Critical reception
The song has been met with mixed reviews among critics. Jonathan Keefe of Slant Magazine cited the song as a standout track on the album, saying that it "bring[s] a contemporary polish and point of view to a staunchly traditional country aesthetic."[3] Bobby Peacock of Roughstock thought that Nichols' vocals were "cold and mechanical" but said that it had a "fairly lively melody and clean, uncluttered production."[4] Peacock compared the song unfavorably to Sammy Kershaw's 1993 single "She Don't Know She's Beautiful."
