By the Numbers
Welcome to the Fishbowl keeps Kenny Chesney's split authorship: he co-wrote three tracks, including the title song and 'To Get to You' with Skip Ewing, while the hits came from outside writers. The lead single 'Come Over' is an early Sam Hunt co-write, and 'Feel Like a Rock Star' is a Tim McGraw collaboration, both showing the record's reliance on Nashville's professional songwriting around Chesney's own contributions.
Welcome to the Fishbowl is the fourteenth studio album by Kenny Chesney, released in June 2012 and his first for Columbia Nashville. It led with the chart-topping ballad 'Come Over,' an early co-write by Sam Hunt, and includes the Tim McGraw collaboration 'Feel Like a Rock Star.' Chesney co-wrote three tracks here, including the title song with Skip Ewing, while the rest drew on Nashville writers like Keith Gattis and Tom Douglas. The album reached number two on the Billboard 200 and continued his steady run of platinum-level releases through the early 2010s.
