“I was fortunate enough to get to work with Dann Huff on it again. I love him — he is so awesome to work with, and I begged him to ask Vince Gill (laughs) to sing with me ’cause I was like, ‘This sounds like such a Vince Gill song!’ ’cause it’s such, like, a R&B / country song, like it’s very soulful. I don’t know — I was excited to hear him on it, and I just think he sounds so amazing on it, and he’s just known for being, like, the best male vocalist ever, so I was pretty stoked that he said, ‘Yes.'”
