Content

Chesney told The Boot that “The chorus is everything I feel about my time on stage... the rush of it absolutely being the best place, best moment in the entire world. There’s no rush like it...It says everything about how we all put off living our lives because there’s so much other stuff to do." It has a central theme about "living in the moment".[1]

Brian Mansfield, writing for Variety, said that "With a guitar intro that recalls the Doobie Brothers' 'China Grove', the bracing title track marries Chesney’s classic-rock-infused country with his in-the-moment philosophy..Instead of ringing hollow, it might be the perfect motivational song for quarantine days — a high-energy number that doesn’t necessarily try to get you to do anything, except maybe to make the most of doing nothing."[2]

Chart performance

"Here and Now" reached a peak of Number One on the Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week dated July 4, 2020, making it his 31st Number One hit.[3]
