"Better I Don't" is a song recorded by American country music singer Chris Janson. Janson co-wrote the song with Pat Bunch and Kelly Roland.
Critical reception[edit]
Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song a positive review, saying that "Janson’s producer pulls all the elements together for one sweet, smooth ride. The scathing harmonica solo near the bridge almost gets lost upon first listen. So too does the steel guitar that reminds one where Janson’s loyalties lie. It’s a masterful mix that dazzles even before the second verse."[3]
Music video[edit]
The music video was directed by Wes Edwards and premiered in March 2013.[4]
