Brad Paisley had a lot of fun writing his current single "I'm Still A Guy." The song pokes fun at stereotypes about men and women and tests the limits about what you can say on the radio.

He had no intention of releasing "I'm Still A Guy" as a single, but it got a huge response when he performed it in concert, and Arista Records convinced him it was the way to go.

"I just wanted to capture this struggle a little bit between men and women in a playful way, which is 'Why don't you get a little cosmopolitan here and feminize up for me just a bit?'" he laughs, recounting the song's origins. "We're fighting that every step of the way, some of us guys, and ironically in talking to the radio guys... they say the majority of the calls for it come from women, and I think the same thing happened with 'I'm Gonna Miss Her.' These women want their men to hear it, and by golly, that is the best way to get a man to hear something is to play it for their significant other. They're gonna be forced to listen to it. It's got that nudge-your-partner-with-your-elbow factor to it."

Listeners have nudged "I'm Still A Guy" all the way to No. 9 on the Country Aircheck singles chart. Expect Brad to play it when he kicks off his Paisley Party Tour June 11 in Albuquerque, N.M.
