Blake kept pushing for it to be more steels, more country and stuff,\u201d Brooks said in a radio interview. \u201cBlake was nothing short of fantastic. It should be pretty cool. So let\u2019s wave the flag for country music and for the summer\u2026right here with \u2018Dive Bar\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And coming soon to a TV or streaming service near you: the music video. Brooks admits it\u2019s been a minute since he\u2019s released one of those. \u201cIf you\u2019ll look all the way back in the \u201890s, we just said, \u2018Look, unless a video gets to bring something new to a song, why just re-do the song lyric?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, the idea\u2019s comin\u2019 for this one,\u201d Brooks added, \u201cto do a video that I\u2019m not sure\u2019s been done before. Any time you get that chance, take it. This\u2019ll be fun.\u201d We\u2019re guessing it won\u2019t just be a lyric re-do, then. So no literal interpretations of diving in the deep end, then?<\/p>\n<p>You can listen live to hear the new tune on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iheart.com\/live\/iheartcountry-radio-4418\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">iHeartCountry<\/a> radio.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDive Bar\u201d will be on Brooks\u2019 next album, <em>Fun<\/em>, due out later this year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n<div class=\"description\">Alison makes her living loving country music.
