Joe Nichols is in good shape with the video for his latest single "The Shape I'm In," which debuted as the most watched video on CMT.com.
 
The "Gimme That Girl" singer also landed at No. 2 on the site's list of overall most viewed artists.
 
"The Shape I'm In" video pays tribute to America's servicemen and women, those who've overcome adversity and returned to everyday life with a new optimistic attitude even "when they could probably have more of a gripe than any of us," said Nichols.
 
"It's not just that, 'Hey! I'm recognizing that this guy lost a limb and he's got a prosthetic leg and that's how he's got to go about his life,'" he said. "It's the...smile on his face, like 'Hey! I know what's going on. I know that I've got something to overcome here, but I'm doing alright. I'm getting better. I'm going about my business, and this is not going to stop me.'" 
 
The video also features testimonials from former Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell, author of the best selling book "Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10."
 
The video was made in partnership with the Lone Survivor Foundation and The Boot Campaign.
 
"The Shape I'm In" is featured on Nichols' "Greatest Hits" collection in stores now.
