Keith Urban Serenades Ariana Grande with a Mesmerizing Rendition of We Can't Be Friends
Country music icon Keith Urban has expressed his profound admiration for Ariana Grande's musical artistry, particularly her latest single, Eternal Sunshine. In an interview with People Magazine, Urban couldn't contain his enthusiasm, describing the song as audible heroin.
Urban's infatuation with the track inspired him to create his own rendition, which he shared on Instagram on May 14th. The video showcased Urban's exceptional vocal prowess and guitar skills as he soulfully interpreted Grande's lyrics.
This song is audible heroin, Urban captioned the post, echoing his sentiments from the People Magazine interview. I don't know what is going on with that song, but I cannot stop playing it. It's like audible heroin. Literally, I have to have another hit.
Grande was quick to respond to Urban's heartfelt tribute, expressing her gratitude and admiration with the comment, this is so beautiful & thank youuuuu!
Urban's cover delighted not only Grande but also her fans, who praised his interpretation for its authenticity and emotional depth. The video garnered widespread attention, with many expressing their appreciation for Urban's ability to transcend musical boundaries and connect with audiences from all walks of life.
The release of Eternal Sunshine marked a significant moment in Grande's career, serving as the second single from her critically acclaimed album of the same name. The song's poignant lyrics and ethereal melody explore themes of love, loss, and the complexities of human relationships.
In an interview with Apple Music's Zane Lowe, Grande shared her thoughts on the song's open-ended nature, stating that its meaning could be interpreted differently by each listener. They all sort of interpret it a little bit differently, which I love about that song, she said. Because I think it can be applied to any kind of relationship, really — especially when you see the video.
The accompanying music video for We Can't Be Friends visually depicts the emotional turmoil and psychological distress associated with a romantic breakup. The video's narrative bears striking similarities to the plot of the film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which served as a source of inspiration for the album as a whole.
