Kenny Chesney surprised fans on Friday with a new song, ‘Beautiful World” and new music video to go along with it.

“There’s so much wonder out in the world, so many things that can take your breath away right in front of you,” Kenny said.  “I was thinking about that feeling, thinking about how I could maybe capture it – and give it back to the people, and it hit me: show them some of the best days of my life out on the water. “

Kenny says ‘Beautiful World” is a counterpart to his hit single “Knowing You. “This is what that person whose gone would be chasing or seeking: that feeling of moving through space and time, the salt air on your tongue and waves hitting your boat as you take your time getting nowhere fast.”

The video for “Beautiful World”  was shot largely in the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico and off the coasts and reminds us how beautiful every single day is, if we’ll just open our eyes and see it. “It always amazes me, the things I see when I actually look. This world is a beautiful place, and I feel bad for all the people who won’t open up their eyes and take that in.”
