Vincent Williams were shopping at a grocery store in Nashville, Tennessee. Otto had wanted to write a song with Femino, and Femino suggested bringing Williams ( who had never met Otto before ) with him. When they met Otto at Williams ' house, Williams stated that he noticed a sex appeal in Otto 's material, comparing the singer to Conway Twitty. Williams then came up with a melody that he `` thought was cool '', and put down the melody on his computer ; after Otto heard the tune, he felt that it `` suggested a sexy lyric and came from a sexy spot '', and eventually came up with the title `` Just Got Started Lovin ' You ''. The three then recorded a work tape and played it for singer and producer John Rich ( of Big & Rich ), who chose it as the first single from Otto 's Sunset Man album. The song is in the key of G major with a tempo of approximately 92 beats per minute and a 4 / 4 time signature. Its verses follow the chord pattern G - Am7 - C-D-G. Critical reception Kevin John Coyne of Country Universe gave the song a B grade, calling it `` a smooth but not sappy romantic ballad. '' He also said that he is n't `` reinventing the wheel, but he sounds comfortable and self - assured. '' Music video The music video was directed by Ryan Smith and was filmed on November 26, 2007.
