Keith Urban Reflects On Late-Night Longings And Heartbreak In New Single, ‘Messed Up As Me’

Urban is giving fans another taste of what’s to come on his next album with this new release.

Keith Urban has dropped his newest single, “Messed Up As Me,” in preparation for his forthcoming album which has yet to be named.

What Is “Messed Up As Me” About?

Penned by Jessie Jo Dillon, Shane McAnally, Rodney Clawson, and Michael Lotten, the fresh tune finds Urban grappling with the ups and downs of a dysfunctional relationship that keeps pulling him back in, despite being fully aware of the pain that his actions will bring on. The country-rocker puts an authentic display of heartbreak on full blast as he draws from the experiences of his past to immerse himself in the story he’s telling.

“I can relate to that, where there’s only one good thing going on. I’ve had these relationships,” Urban told Country Now and other outlets. “There’s only one part of the relationship that is amazing and all the rest is complete chaos, dysfunction, toxicity, but that one thing is pretty good. So, you keep coming back to it. That’s really the center of ‘Messed Up As Me.’”
