I like it, but this just proves that anyone can write a country song
You know this is a cover of his song on his most recent album, right? And also, anything set to this kind of music is going to sound like a typical country song, but at its core this really just means it's a very versatile, well-written song with a good hook and non-genre specific lyrics, qualities that can lend to any song becoming a cross-genre hit (see: I Will Always Love You, Hurt, Best I Ever Had).
