Tim McGraw’s song “Humble and Kind” hit number one six years ago this week, and Tim says the message of the tune never gets old.

“’Humble and Kind,’ to me, the message of that song and the scope of that song grows exponentially every day in the world that we live in now,” he shares. “We certainly had a sense of that when we recorded the song, of what it said.”

He says while the song initially is “a microscope into your life,” and the things “you want to teach your kids,” he notes, “it turned into this sort of worldview of how the world needs to look at each other, and how people in general need to look at each other differently than they look at each other now.”

Finally, Tim shares, “I think that that song’s taken on more and more meaning, and I think it’s got a bigger megaphone. And I don’t think that I’m the megaphone. I think the song is.”
