NPR<\/em><\/a>, Musgraves revealed they have put their differences aside after they \u201chad our s\u2014 over the years.\u201d She added, \u201cIt was two singers from two nearby, small Texas towns. There\u2019s a lot that comes with that. Then we each take our own different paths, both leading us to Nashville at different times.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\nOf the song issue, Musgraves explained, \u201cIt was gonna be my first single and I loved the song so much,\u201d she said. \u201cThen, the song gets pitched to [Lambert] without my consent or knowledge. It was a tricky situation. She ended up loving the song and she really wanted it. And I had other co-writers to consider.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lambert would go on to record the song, which appeared on her 2011 album Four the Record<\/em>. Musgraves was left at square one.<\/p>\n\u201cAnd ultimately, I\u2019m really glad that I did, because it forced me to write \u2018Merry Go Round,\u2019 which ended up making way more sense for me anyways, aesthetically and lyrically, to kick my whole thing off, versus \u2018Mama\u2019s Broken Heart,\u2019\u201d Musgrave said of her 2012 single. \u201cAnd [\u2018Mama\u2019s Broken Heart\u2019] ended up going No. 1 for her. So in the end, everyone won because I was able to let go of something.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
From there, she said she and Musgraves \u201clost touch for years\u201d after their initial conflict, but reconnected after she saw Lambert riding a horse on Instagram one day. \u201cI was like, \u2018Well, we ain\u2019t friends, but I guess we have two things in common, horses and divorces, that\u2019s for sure. Wait, that could be a really funny song. What if it\u2019s a duet with her? What if I got her to write on it?\u2019\u201d Musgraves said.<\/p>\n
Now, their debut collaboration will appear on Musgraves\u2019 upcoming album. The song is titled \u201cHorses and Divorces,\u201d from Musgraves\u2019 album Middle of Nowhere<\/em>, which will be released May 1.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source popculture.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kacey Musgraves and Miranda Lambert have called a truce.
