Memories remain. Miranda Lambert recalled writing her song “Over You” with ex-husband Blake Shelton during a Monday, March 29, episode of “Essentials Radio” on Apple Music.
Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert: The Way They Were Read article“My ex-husband, Blake, had lost a brother and it’s one of those moments where even if you’re married to someone, sometimes you find something new about them,” the country singer, 37, told Kelleigh Bannen while discussing the stories behind her hit songs. “Dudes don’t open up about things, but he started telling me about the experience of it all.”
The Pistol Annies frontwoman asked her then-husband if he’d written about his experience, to which he said no.
According to Lambert, the Voice coach, 44, told her, “Well, my dad just says, ‘You don’t get over it. You just get used to it.’”
Still, the “Bluebird” singer pushed, offering to help him get the words out at the time.
“‘I would never try to write your story because I didn’t live it, but maybe I could help because I’m an outside perspective. … I feel your pain talking to me right now,’” she recalled saying. “It was really a special moment and I’m so glad we shared that song and that it helped his family heal, to have that together.”
