Keith Urban (songs on Fuse) OC: …come together. :31
“I cut about 24 song, 25 songs, and certain ones just kept hitting me a certain way where I felt very strong about them as songs, and I felt strong about them for their energy, for they were saying, even sort of escape of songs that just made me feel good, like good thing sort of songs that are just fun. They’re unabashed fun. They aren’t meant to be anything else than just that. They all had merit and so, slowly, this particular group of 16 songs, for me, started to really come together.”
