Watch Darius Rucker’s Boot-Stompin’ New Video, “For the First Time”

Darius Rucker dropped his fifth country album, When Was the Last Time, today (Oct. 20).

The 12-song offering already boasts a No. 1 hit, as lead single, “If I Told You,” reached the top of the Billboard Country Airplay chart in June. The album’s follow-up single, “For the First Time,” which was penned by Darius, Derek George and Scooter Carusoe, is No. 43 on the chart after 10 weeks.

“There’s a lot of nostalgia in ‘For the First Time,’” says Darius to Nash Country Daily. “The line ‘Say you never drank from the bottle of some two dollar wine, run barefoot through the mud’—that’s stuff you do in high school and college, so it was a fun one to write.”
