Eric Church Most-Added At Country Radio With ‘Hell Of A View’

Eric Church returns to Country radio today as romantic new single “Hell Of A View” earns most-added distinction ahead of Wednesday night’s CMA Awards, where the Male Vocalist & Entertainer of the Year nominee will perform the song live on ABC.

Written by Church together with Casey Beathard (“The Outsiders,” “Mr. Misunderstood”) and Monty Criswell (“Like Jesus Does”), the romantic mid-tempo track depicts a life devoted to chasing dreams over dollars alongside the ones we love.

“We were in North Carolina in the mountains, and when I came back in from a jog Casey immediately started playing the first part of the song he’d been working on with Monty,” shares Church. “He had the line ‘caught your wings on fire when I smoked my Bronco tires out of that town,’ and I just thought that was such a great line. I was smitten with it, so we finished it and then recorded it that night. I knew it was pretty special when it went down, because it felt like a big hit but at the same time it has that timeless quality to it.”
