"Follow Me" was Uncle Kracker's first solo single, released on November 6, 2000 to lead off his debut album Double Wide. He wrote it with Michael Bradford, and Kid Rock produced it with Bradford adding production of his own, and what they came up with for Lava Records is a lazy, sun-warmed country rock sway.
Kracker has said the song means more than one thing, and listeners have argued over whether it's about drugs or cheating. Either way, it caught on everywhere in 2001: number one in eight countries, from Australia to Sweden, number five on the Billboard Hot 100 and a chart-topper on the Adult Top 40.
