‘Gettin’ Warmed Up’ is the third single that Jason Aldean has released from his upcoming album, ‘Rearview Town.‘ The rest of the album is set to be released on April 13th. With the recent release of singles ‘Rearview Town’ and ‘You Make it Easy,’ two slower and more sentimental songs, it was only a matter of time before Jason revealed something from this album that will get fans pumped up. ‘Gettin’ Warmed Up’ is exactly that. It is the perfect song for a pregame, tailgate, or drive to a party.
The opening rock instrumental of this song hits hard; with electrifying guitar and pounding drums, it does not let up. The song’s high energy is infectious. ‘Gettin’ Warmed Up’ presents not only a cross between country and rock, but also includes some rap for a mix that only Jason Aldean can pull off. Yes, you did read that correctly, country, rock, and rap. Jason Aldean is back to rapping in this song, similar to what he put forth in his previous hit, ‘Dirt Road Anthem.’ The country superstar raps a single verse; Gettin’ warmed up and gettin’ started, Everybody in here came to party, You need a good time, well I brought it, Hands up in the air if you want it, Yeah the speakers are here and they turned up, Cups filling, we mixed up the good stuff, Who’s setting it off, you know that’s us, Y’already know we gettin’ warmed up.
‘Gettin’ Warmed Up’ paints a simple picture of a fun night of partying that just does not stop. The lyrics, We showed up here when the sun went down, Hit it hard, kicked it off right, You think by now we’d be heading out, Hanging it up and calling it a night, But we’re just getting warmed up, open the song. Whether played as an opener or a mid-set song, ‘Gettin’ Warmed Up’ is sure to get the crowd going during a show. With buzz words like fired up and hands up in the air included throughout the song, it would seem that songwriters Josh Mirenda, Jaron Boyer, and Cole Taylor perfectly crafted the song for a Jason Aldean concert. Perhaps the single seems to fit so well into Jason’s repertoire because of the similarities it has with his previous hit ‘Just Gettin’ Started;’ even the titles are very similar. ‘Gettin Warmed Up’ also features the lyrics just gettin’ started in its chorus. The similarities of the songs go deeper, with both having themes about having a great time. It is intuitive to picture Aldean performing with some pyrotechnics bursting in the background while fans go wild for this song. It would not be a surprise to see the catchy single become a summer party anthem.
