"I Like the Sound of That"
Song

"I Like the Sound of That" is a song by American country music group Rascal Flatts. It was released in August 2015 as the fourth single from their album Rewind. The song was written by Jesse Frasure along with American singer Meghan Trainor and Shay Mooney of the American country music duo Dan + Shay.[1]

Content

The song "lists a number of noises everyone is familiar with, but uses each as a symbol. In the first verse it’s the morning shower, the coffee pot and a door locking. All these mean the main character will be spending a few hours apart from his lover."[3]

Critical reception

An uncredited review from Taste of Country was favorable, saying that "a young lover’s song that relies on an older couple to recall those early days when eight hours at work seemed like eight years away from a familiar pair of lips.…'I Like the Sound of That' recalls the days of the band’s biggest hits. Once again they make love sound easy."[3]

Commercial performance

The song first entered the Billboard's Country Airplay chart at No. 40 on chart dated October 10, 2015,[4] and entered the Hot Country Songs chart at No. 45 a week later.[5] For the week ending April 30, 2016, the song reached number-one on the Country Airplay chart, becoming the trio's thirteenth number-one hit, and their first since "Banjo" in 2012.[6] The song has sold 339,000 copies in the US as of July 2016.[7]

Music video

The music video was directed by Kenny Jackson and John Stephens and premiered in December 2015.[8]
