There are some performances you never forget—and this one was pure country gold.

Originally a beloved duet between Jackson and the late Jimmy Buffett, the song has always been about escaping the grind and embracing a laid-back, beachy state of mind. But on this night, Brad Paisley brought a fresh spark to the classic. His signature guitar riffs added just the right amount of flair, perfectly complementing Jackson’s smooth, familiar vocals. You could see the mutual respect between them in every shared smile and effortless harmony. What made the moment even more powerful was the way it honored Jimmy Buffett’s legacy. Though Buffett wasn’t there in person, his spirit was woven into every lyric. It felt like more than a tribute—it felt like a reunion of kindred musical souls. The audience loved every second. Drinks were raised, voices were loud, and for a few minutes, life felt a little lighter. That’s the magic of country music—its power to unite people with songs that speak to the heart and soul. Jackson and Paisley reminded us why they’re both icons in the genre. Their chemistry, musicianship, and genuine love for performing made this version of “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” feel brand new—while still honoring everything we’ve always loved about it.
