Content
This up-tempo country-rock song tells the story of a man who has just woken up after a night of drinking at a bar, unable to remember what he had been doing in that bar and unaware of how he arrived home. In an attempt to find out what happened, he asks several of his friends, all of whom tell him that he began drinking heavily upon seeing his former lover with another man.
Regarding the song, Bryan said, "It's one of those songs that people just seem to relate to when they hear it. It's about waking up in a rocking chair somewhere and wondering what in the heck went on the night before. It's about seeing your ex in a bar with someone new... We've all been there and had those kinds of experiences."
Critical reception
Kevin John Coyne of 'Country Universe' gave the song a B grade. He said the only problem with the song is the production. He then went on to say that "it tries a little too hard to show 'attitude', and ends up making Bryans vocal sound more timid than it actually is."
Chart performance
"All My Friends Say" debuted at number 59 on the U.S. 'Billboard' Hot Country Songs chart for the week of February 10, 2007. On the 'Billboard' Hot 100 chart for the week of August 18, 2007, the song debuted at number 90.
