Nashville is dubbed Music City for a reason, and it’s not just because of all the country stars who live there. Live music can be heard in every bar in town and sometimes if you’re a country artist going out for a night on the town,  you might hear your own songs.

Recently, Chris Young stopped into a bar after hearing a familiar tune. Young posted the video of the singer covering his song “Gettin’ You Home” on his TikTok. “Never know what song you will hear at a bar in Nashville,” he writes on the video. “Shout out to everyone chasing their dreams and putting in the hard work.”

Young captioned the video, “Living the dream. Don’t stop chasing yours.” Young recently wrapped his Famous Friends tour in early December and most recently released his album Famous Friends. The title track featuring Kane Brown was Billboard’s most-played country song for 2021.
