Kenny Chesney unleashed his latest song late last week–and in just a short amount of time “Setting The World On Fire” has become a fan favorite with it jumping up to be one of the best selling songs online this weekend! One of the great things about the song, is Kenny collaborating with P!nk. Kenny, who’s known for having some amazing duet partners on his music–like Grace Potter, Dave Matthews, George Strait, and Uncle Kracker to name a few–once again knew that one of his songs needed a little added extra. “After I recorded ‘Setting The World On Fire,’ and after I lived with it for a little while, I realize I needed a woman’s voice to be in the song with me.” Kenny goes on to add that “I’ve always really respected her and loved her singing, and I guess it’s because when I hear Pink sing, I truly believe what she’s saying to me.” “Setting The World On Fire” is the second single from Cosmic Hallelujah–Kenny Chesney’s upcoming album, due out October 28th!

“After I recorded ‘Setting The World On Fire,’ and after I lived with it for a little while, I realize I needed a woman’s voice to be in the song with me, and Pink’s voice holds so many feelings. When I hear her sing, I hear joy, I hear want, a bit of toughness, and a little bit of hurt. To me that’s the mark of a great singer, and a great vocalist…someone that can make you feel all those things at once, and I’ve always really respected her and loved her singing, and I guess it’s because when I hear Pink sing, I truly believe what she’s saying to me.”
