About 7 Summers

"7 Summers" is a song by American country music singer Morgan Wallen. Wallen first performed a portion of the track on his Instagram, it was then released on August 14, 2020, following its popularity on TikTok. "7 Summers" is a "dreamy", nostalgic track, with Wallen singing of a long lost love of his and reminiscing about their romance that took place, as the title suggests, seven summers ago. He was hesitant to include it on his second studio album Dangerous: The Double Album, but had a change of mind after it became a fan-favorite. Wallen wrote the song, along with Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne.

Upon its release, the song broke the single-day Apple Music streaming record for a country song and debuted at number six on the Billboard Hot 100, making Wallen the second solo male country artist to earn a top 10 debut, 21 years after the first one. During the COVID-19 quarantine, Wallen was nominated by fellow country musician Jake Owen to do a demo on Instagram; he accepted the challenge and performed the first verse and chorus in April 2020. He was initially uncertain whether the song would be included on his second album, however he changed his mind after the demo received good feedback from fans and went viral on video-sharing app TikTok, where it earned over 24 million views prior to its official release. On August 4, in response to a fan who posted on TikTok that they were waiting for Wallen to release the song, he announced the song would be released the following week.
