"One of Those Nights" is a song written by Luke Laird, Rodney Clawson, and Chris Tompkins [1] and recorded by American country music artist Tim McGraw. It was released in November 2012 as the second single from McGraw's 2013 album Two Lanes of Freedom and his second one from Big Machine Records. [2]
Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song three stars out of five, writing that "McGraw certainly sounds refreshed on this new song from a new record label partner, but much like songs late in his career with Curb, it feels like an attempt is made to make every moment a huge moment." [3] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the song four stars out of five, calling it "a sweet little song with one of McGraw's most engaging vocals and a well-produced backing track." [4] Ben Foster of Country Universe gave the song a C grade, saying that "a better hook could have compensated to some extent for the generally uninspiring lyrical content, but the way it is, there’s precious little for the listener to grab onto." [5]
The music video was directed by Sherman Halsey and premiered in December 2012. It depicts the process of making a music video, and is McGraw's final video to be directed by Halsey before his death in 2013. [6]
