Wikipedia article
"'Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye'" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Luke Bryan. It was released in August 2012 as the fourth and final single from his album 'Tailgates & Tanlines'. The song was written by Bryan, Jeff Stevens and Shane McAnally.
Content
The song is set in the key of F minor with a chord pattern of D-Fm-E. It is about a couple who have decided to break up because the only thing they can get right is making love and they decide to "do what [they] do best" one last time before breaking up. Co-writer and record producer Jeff Stevens told 'Taste of Country' that he came up with the title while playing his guitar, but did not finalize the song until he presented the idea to Bryan and co-writer Shane McAnally.
Critical reception
Billy Dukes of 'Taste of Country' gave the song three stars out of five, writing that "its got a great hook, and a quirky, memorable lyric but after back-to-back number one hits of a similar groove, its wearing a little thin." Ben Foster of 'Country Universe' gave the song a C+ grade, saying that it "could have been good, but this endlessly distracting wall of noise doesnt let it come anywhere close to its potential." Matt Bjorke of 'Roughstock' gave the song a favorable review, writing that "Luke sings this one well and with the tasty melody accompaniment, its a memorable radio song."
Music video
The music video was directed by Shaun Silva and premiered in October 2012.
