Behind the Hit: The Surprising Story of Aaron Tippin's 'Kiss This
Aaron Tippin and his wife, Thea, unexpectedly created the hit song "Kiss This" in their home gym in 2000. The song, written with their friend Phillip Douglas, was initially considered a silly idea that they didn't think would go anywhere. However, to meet a song quota for their record label, they submitted it, not expecting much. Surprisingly, the label loved the song and decided to make it the lead single from Tippin's album "People Like Us." The success of "Kiss This" marked Tippin's last No.1 hit. The couple was taken aback by the song's unexpected popularity, as it became a chart-topping success.
