I really, really think it's the right song for us to sing together.' And then figuring out that Keith was going to play guitar on it, it was just the perfect storm! And just like as a fan I trusted Tim's choice in music, I trusted his choice in music as a collaborator.\u00bb\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-q-footer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<cite class=\"elementor-blockquote__author\">Taylor Swift<\/cite>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6fcdf98 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6fcdf98\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTaylor&#8217;s voice on &#8220;Highway Don&#8217;t Care&#8221; serves as a random song on the radio while the protagonist is driving.

Don&#8217;t Care Two Lanes of Freedom (Tim McGraw Album) | 2013 &#8220;Highway Don&#8217;t Care&#8221; is a song performed by American country music artist Tim McGraw and features Taylor on vocals, as well as Keith Urban on guitar. It was released in March 2013 as the third single from McGraw&#8217;s album Two Lanes of Freedom (2013). The song tells the story of a person driving down the highway in a hurry, trying to escape their thoughts and feelings of heartbreak or a troubled relationship. Table of Contents Background and Lyrical Theme &#8220;Highway Don&#8217;t Care&#8221; is a mid-tempo ballad.\u00a0 The artists&#8217; recording sessions were all done separately with McGraw the last to add his voice. &#8220;When we got it back, it was pretty spectacular. Taylor&#8217;s voice on there, she just really nailed it,&#8221; he told The Boot. &#8220;And Keith&#8217;s guitar playing&#8230;I don&#8217;t think you&#8217;ll find a more talented guy around.&#8221; He also told Billboard: &#8220;There&#8217;s a sultriness to it. Taylor sang her ass off on that thing.&#8221; In a video released by his label, he also said: \u00abTaylor on &#8216;Highway Don&#8217;t Care&#8217;, I never had a second thought that that&#8217;s who I wanted to sing that part on that song. And that record wouldn&#8217;t be the same without her singing it. I just think she brings something special to it. Not only &#8217;cause she&#8217;s Taylor Swift, but the quality that she brings, and the vulnerability in her vocal on that record is just spectacular.\u00bb Tim McGraw The song is featured as track 13 on the Deluxe Version of Two Lanes Of Freedom, in honor of Taylor and her famous favorite number. Lyrical Theme The song was written by some of Nashville&#8217;s most successful songwriters, Mark Irwin, Josh Kear and the Warren brothers. The lyrics tell the story of a person dealing with loneliness and heartbreak. The song emphasizes their isolation and despair, portraying a helpless individual trying to drown their sorrows by driving aimlessly on a highway, hoping to escape their painful reality. Then, a song comes on the radio, where a voice is singing, &#8220;I can&#8217;t live without you, baby.&#8221; Brad Warren told Roughstock the following about that part of the song: \u00abIt&#8217;s just the voice on the radio. The person you&#8217;re singing about in the song or singing to in the song is driving down the road. It says, &#8216;And the song says&#8217; and she comes in with, &#8216;I can&#8217;t live without you, baby. We wrote the girl&#8217;s part as just the voice on the radio. It&#8217;s not actually part of the lyrics; it&#8217;s just looked at as a voice on the radio. Then it kicks into the regular chorus. That&#8217;s one of those tricks you learn when you&#8217;ve been around for 20 years!\u00bb Brad Warren The highway becomes a metaphor for indifference and emotional distance, as it doesn&#8217;t acknowledge or care about the person&#8217;s struggles or loneliness. It is portrayed as an impersonal entity that doesn&#8217;t offer solace or understanding. Notably, Taylor and the Warren brothers used to co-write together, back when Taylor was just starting out in the Nashville country music scene as a teenager. Among other songs, they co-wrote &#8220;That&#8217;s When&#8220;, which was released as a Vault Song on Fearless (Taylor&#8217;s Version) in 2021 and also features vocals from Keith Urban. A Collaboration of Superstars &#8220;Highway Don&#8217;t Care&#8221; is a collaboration between three members of country music&#8217;s Olympus. And it was a long time coming. Famously, Taylor&#8217;s debut single is titled &#8220;Tim McGraw,&#8221; in which she discloses that a song by its namesake (&#8220;Can&#8217;t Tell Me Nothin&#8217;&#8221;) was her favorite song during an early romance. Taylor said: \u00abI had always hoped that Tim would pick up the phone and say, &#8216;Sing a song with me.&#8217; And it&#8217;s almost like for years I was just waiting for the call. And finally, it was actually a text message. But he said, &#8216;I have this song I found. I really, really think it&#8217;s the right song for us to sing together.&#8217; And then figuring out that Keith was going to play guitar on it, it was just the perfect storm! And just like as a fan I trusted Tim&#8217;s choice in music, I trusted his choice in music as a collaborator.\u00bb Taylor Swift Taylor&#8217;s voice on &#8220;Highway Don&#8217;t Care&#8221; serves as a random song on the radio while the protagonist is driving. That makes it something of an answer song to the lyrics in Taylor&#8217;s song. &#8220;It does tie back to the same sort of theme that her song had,&#8221; McGraw admitted Radio.com. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know that I&#8217;ve ever thought about it that way.&#8221; Fellow country music superstar and friend of both Tim and Taylor, Keith Urban, provides an extended guitar solo towards the end of &#8220;Highway Don&#8217;t Care&#8221;. He said: \u00abThe great thing about &#8216;Highway Don&#8217;t Care&#8217; was how it started. For me, Tim just called me one day and said, &#8216;I&#8217;ve got a song I&#8217;d love you to play on.&#8217; And I said, &#8216;Well, send me the song!&#8217; And he sent it and I thought the song was great. Went to the studio, did a solo, and it was that simple. I just love the fact it was that simple.\u00bb Keith Urban Music Video The song&#8217;s music video was directed by Shane Drake and features Taylor and Keith Urban as a young woman&#8217;s guardian angels. The video doubles as a public service announcement about the dangers of texting while driving and the heartache that can come as a result. The visual&#8217;s thoughtful imagery was inspired by Terrence Malick films, while McGraw&#8217;s teenage daughters were largely the inspiration behind the video&#8217;s treatment. &#8220;I&#8217;m not gonna stand on a soap box and tell everybody how they should live their lives and what you should and shouldn&#8217;t do,&#8221; McGraw said. &#8220;It just felt like it was the right opportunity. It really meant something for me to say it because I do have teenage daughters, so it wouldn&#8217;t be like just throwing a message out there for the hell of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7653,"parent":7651,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"page-builder","ast-site-content-layout":"full-width-container","site-content-style":"unboxed","site-sidebar-style":"unboxed","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-7649","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Highway Don&#039;t Care (feat.
