"All the pressure built up and blew it out."

Kenny Chesney has racked up his 23rd number one song with ‘Reality,’ the fourth number one single from his current album, ‘Hemingway’s Whiskey.’ Kenny says he got the idea for the song while sitting in the dentist’s chair, “I was lying in the chair, I had the mask on, you know, where they give you that funny gas, so they can work on your mouth without you feeling it, and I remember thinking, ‘Wow, I haven’t been this relaxed in a long time.’ That was my escape from reality and that’s what the song is about.”
