1 thing people need to realize a lot of the time "the other woman" doesn't know she's the other woman, and it can be months sometimes longer before they find out and feelings develop and it's not so easy to just turn those off. Just saying "the other woman" is not always evil or at fault, sometimes they just make a mistake and step off with the wrong guy who's good at keeping a double life. Its hard to judge people when you don't know what the circumstance is.
@@NoPitBullLeftBehind Wow! No joke, that is amazing. She looked side-eye in the camera and I subconsciously sat up straighter. And that little giggle at the end?! Priceless Thanks for the tip
@@ASeventhSign You're welcome. She can break your heart, make you laugh, and uhh...sing Sex On Fire and make you feel all the feels. One video that always kind of makes me laugh is Jennifer Nettles and Ben Harper singing "I'm on Fire" from the Kennedy Center Honors for Bruce Springsteen. He looks visually nervous with how intense she is looking at him, hell I think anyone would be. We all wish someone would look at us like that. Lol
You guys have NO idea how happy I am that you're doing this song!! I haven't watched yet but... so many other reactor's have misunderstood this song SOOOO here goes.... Jennifer Nettles (lead singer) wrote this song from the "other woman's" perspective. Her husband in real life had been cheating on her and she wrote this show how his actions had an impact on more than just her.... The tears in this video are 100% real and Christian (guitarist and the other half of Sugarland) told the director to keep filming when he suggested they stop filming to let her get herself together. he said this was real and raw and was important for people to see the real emotion and pain to get the message across.... LOVE Sugarland and this song! Kudos and thanks for this one guys!!
@@jtd5849 Ummm, NOPE.... he was cheating on her and at the time this video was being filmed, she was in the middle of divorcing him.... that's where her tears are coming from. There are plenty of articles where she and Christian both talk about it and about how they decided to keep filming even though she was crying and in so much pain! Peace and light to you... :)
@@michaelgilbert197 Jennifer Nettles has said her ex was not cheating, but they were going through a divorce. Yes, the rest about the filming is true, and she was overcome with emotion. She said she wrote it after hearing Reba’s song, and wanted to write from the other woman’s perspective.
@@michaelgilbert197 nope JTD is right she told story about this video...she was going through divorce and the feelings are real she wouldnt let them cut out anything out and she wanted it as raw as possible
*Jennifer Nettles* has a voice that's so captivating. The song is about a woman being promised a great life after the man tells her that he'll be leaving his wife for her soon. As the song unfolds she begins to realize it's all a lie and if he really wanted to be with he would have been true to his, she also thinks about if he's slippin' out on his marriage, he'll do the same thing to her. So to end she tells him to stay with his wife that he wasn't planning on leaving. And even though it she knows it be wrong to break up a marriage with a man that's confused and trying to see if he should stay or go. A sad story of someone being put in a position that they never wanted to be in the first place. And Kristen (He's the Duo part of Sugarland) was getting little upset, because he thinks of Jennifer as a sister and they were making cry on set ( so it was like nobody messes with my little sister like that), but video wise it all worked out. Well with that being said on to some other great tunes by *Sugarland : Stuck Like Glue, Settlin', Something More, Baby Girl, Everyday America, Tonight and Joey.* The subject isn't so risque as *Stay* but just as good. Love Peace and Happiness Y'all !!
Ummm, even tho the song is from the side pieces pov, Jennifer was going thru a divorce after finding out her husband was cheating on her. The tears were real, they had to stop filming a few times because she’d break down n the guy on the guitar told her she didn’t have to keep going but she wanted to power thru.
She was really breaking down for real and producers wanted her to record again but the guitarist refused to let them put her through it again. Ps the last verse IS her saying stay at home don't come find me. There is a whole story behind her band too!!!
Try Martina McBride- "Concrete Angel", or "Independence Day", or Broken Wings", or give Patry Cline a listen-"Crazy", or "I Fall To Pieces", or "Walking After Midnight", or "She's Got You", to start' country music is full of female artists with beautiful voices, and the men have to sing pretty good, too. There's so many it's hard to pick just a couple.
Jennifer has one of the most compelling voices you ever want to hear. If you hear a song by Jennifer you never forget it. It's my understanding that this was done in one take. The producer wanted her to do it again and the guitarist said no. This is all that she's going to sing.
When she recorded this video she was actually going through her own divorce and the emotion translated into a very emotional and heartfelt performance. If I’m not mistaken she wrote the song putting herself in the shoes of the “other woman” to illustrate how much it hurts to be lied to and, as the bridge and last chorus shows, how empowering it is when you’ve had enough and are ready to move on and live your own life. Great reaction guys!
@@beckysmuck8771 Yes it had to be hard since she was cheated on and then sings a song as the mistress. The producers wanted a retake but they decided to go with this emotional reaction.
@@glennallen239 you are just talking out your ass. The song was inspired by a Reba Macentire song and she specifically stated it wasn't from a personal experience. She wanted to flip the narrative from the cheating woman's perspective.
I had heard her band member playing the guitar while she sang refused to allow her to do a retake on her singing part. He didn’t want her to suffer like that again.
I’m born and raised in Nashville and this one time I was in the Minneapolis airport heading to Nashville and guess who is sitting across from me? Yup! Jennifer Nettles. #nashvilleunicorn
●She (as the"other woman"), went from begging him to stay, to getting stronger, saying next time she (his wife) begs him to stay, that he *stay..* Jennifer in reality, was the wife, but sang it from the other woman's perspective. Brave + incredible-Jennifer Nettles=🔥🔥*
Yes, she’s the other woman and then she wises up and builds up the strength to tell him to Stay at Home. Country music is full of story songs. Please don’t hold it against the artist. Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush are Sugarland. Don’t forget Reba McEntire for female Friday please.
Wrong she was not the other woman, she was the wife the husband cheated on. The first part of the song was thru the other woman's eyes. Then the last part was for her. Look up the interview she gave about it.
Jennifer Nettles has such an amazing voice. I love her work. So glad you checked this one out. Absolutely love your reaction top this. Compelling is exactly the right word. She has you from the first note.
Great song! Jennifer Nettles has an amazing voice! You can't help it u just cry when you hear her sing this! You feel it! Thanks for all the great reactions! You guys are killin' it! ✌❤🙂
For female country artists, I would suggest; 1- Faith Hill; "It matters to me", "A man's home is a castle", "Take me as I am". 2-Trisha Yearwood; "Georgia Rain", "down on my knees", "I would have loved you anyway", "The Song remembers when". 3-Lorrie Morgan; "Something in Red", "Picture of me", "if you came back from heaven", "Good as I was to you", "Autumn's not that cold". 4- Martina Mcbride; "Concrete angel", "Independence Day", "God's Will", "Broken Wing", "In my daughter's eyes", "I'm gonna love you through it". 🤠
Jennifer has said in interviews that their divorce was not due to Todd cheating on her. It's such a compelling symmetry with this song, many people make that mistake. But look it up. Jennifer says he didn't cheat. That's not the reason they divorced.
There is an article that talks about this. She wanted to do a song of betrayal, but the other side of it. Way to many people place the blame on the other woman. Some cases , they do know and it's not ok. But, at the end of the day the other woman doesn't owe the wife anything, the husband is the one that made vows.
try baby girl from Sugarland it was their first hit and first released song I believe my favorite love the message to the parents! this one is sad and hard to watch! God Bless everyone 🙏❤
If I remember correctly, she was the wife in this situation and she wrote the song from that perspective but changed it so that it would be more interesting. Jennifer Nettles is the name of the lead singer. They have a lot of great songs (the deep cuts are better than most of the singles, for me) but "Baby Girl" is probably one of their more popular songs, as well as "Stuck Like Glue," which is a fun one.
This song was done when she was going through a really bad divorce. With this song she turns the table and sings as the mistress. Jennifer Nettles voice is so country. She’s perfect for country.
Jennifer Nettles is an amazing vocalist! She's also a great actress and played Dolly Parton's mother in the true story of Dolly's life as a child called Coat of Many Colors! Love y'all's reaction 💜🙏
Yes, she's portraying the side piece in this song. She gets the strength to tell him to "stay" home at the end of the song. Please do Reba McEntire for Female Friday! Lots of good songs, but try "Fancy" or "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia".
One guitar and one beautiful voice, if this doesn't rip your heart out, you can feel the pain. I can't help but tear up watching this video. Jennifer Nettles, amazing
There’s a little backstory to this one. She was going thru it (divorce, cheating, etc) when they recorded this video and they had to stop several times because she was struggling so much. What you see is real af and no matter how many times I see it it always hurts. 🙁
After 4 takes the guitar player (a life long friend) told the producer that that was it. And took Jennifer out of the studio. The emotion and tears were real.
Kim you don't know what you are talking about. Had nothing to do with her divorce as the song was written before that even happened. The song was inspired by a Reba Macentire song and she flipped the script from the cheating woman's perspective. She specifically said it wasn't from personal experience. Geez people will make up anything to sound like they are relevant.
@@chickenjo23 Yep! I don't remember exact quotes but I do remember her/them saying that it was just performance. Granted, it's a a VERY good performance...but a performance nonetheless.
To make even more of a point, this is acoustic, just a guitar done by her partner of the duo, no other instruments. This is the power of the best Country songs, to make the listener step in and live the words along with the singer. 25 cents by the Wilkinsons is also a strong one to listen to
If you think Jennifer’s voice is strong in “Stay”, watch the video of her singing the Christmas song “O Holy Night”. It will blow you away! If it doesn’t give you chills or goosebumps, you might want to check your pulse.
More Sugarland please. My daughter's wedding song, eleven years ago was "Stuck Like Glue." Any Sugarland would be amazing, but that one would be very special
First time watcher, new subscriber!!! I absolutely love you guys and watching y’all react to this Sugarland! You guys are beautiful humans, and it shows! ❤️
OMG!!! This is my first time hearing Sugarland. Jennifer Nettles obviously has a connection to this song and some event in her life that she has not moved past. It may have been painful to her, but it make for a performance that was genuine and totally amazing. I have to look into more music by Sugarland!
I'm not a big country fan but I love your channel and gave it a listen and have to say WOW!!! Still not a country fan but love this song. Brought tears to these old eyes.
Not sure how you stumbled on this one but Jennifer Nettles can sing her behind off and it's emotional af. Enjoy Still hoping you guys choose Haley Reinhart With PMJ doing Creep.
Still seems like yesterday when you guys reactied to this.....Going back over songs that I love.. and your reaction to this is one of the best, you listened...and let her voice take you to the place where she was, ...so much hurt. This song held so much emotion for her I have tears every time I listen to this... every time!!
I see plenty of people have given you the backstory. Since this was a pretty emotional song, I'm going to suggest that you watch their song Stuck Like Glue, the official video. Totally different type of song and I think you'll get a kick out of it.
This was life, this song almost didnt happen. Her Partner wanted to stop it because they needed to stop several times so she could compose herself. The tears were real no acting there and a beautiful song from the heart! Real country music!!
Even after all these years I still deeply feel this song. Maybe it's because I know how she feels being cheated on, maybe it's because of her amazing voice either way is a master piece
What I love about this song is with all the songs from the wife’s perspective or the mistress’s perspective, there is never any repercussion or blame on the cheating man. I love that by the end of the song, she gets her gumption back and dumps his wandering butt…telling him to keep his married rear end home and don’t come back to her. That doesn’t Leah’s happen in songs like this. You go girl!
This performance certainly drained her. Written about her breakup with her husband. He was cheating. This is from the perspective of the other woman. She finally got the strength to stand up to him.
She was going thru a divorce but not because he cheated, that's a common misconception. After hearing Reba's song " Whoever's in New England" she wanted to look at it from the "other woman's" point of view.
@@jtd5849 MY WORD.... Look it up. It's NO SECRET.... Her husband was cheating, she wrote this from the other woman's perspective. Her tears were real as she was divorcing him at the time....
@@michaelgilbert197 , yes divorce was real, tears were real but i've seen the interview where she talks about this being in response to Reba"s song, not her marriage.
She was going through a divorce while recording this song. Her husband was the one cheating on her, so, she wrote about the other woman's point of view. When you see her crying, she's really crying. Her guitarist, Kristian told to them keep rolling when she was crying, because she couldn't get through the song without breaking down. He had had enough of seeing her suffer. They filled in the song after they were done recording.
Jennifer Nettles is one of those country singers that has the "IT" factor. She not only has a voice that will make you cry like this song but she has an uplifting voice that will make feel great on happier tunes with this amazing duo! I hope you do more Sugarland because you will not be disappointed at all!
Sugarland is Jennifer Nettles (singer) and Kristian Bush (guitarist). This was recorded while she was going through a divorce resulting from her husband cheating. Yet she sang it so well from the other woman’s perspective. SO much talent. You should watch their video for the song “Unlove You”. Side note, Kristian was once the guitarist for Annie Lennox, definitely NOT country. There were originally 3 members to Sugarland on their first album.
More for female Friday. Want a banger? Try Melissa Etheridge "Bring Me Some Water" or "I'm the Only One". Want something a little more funky try Rickie Lee Jones "Youngblood"
Jennifer Nettles is singing her heart out and her vocals is amazing on this song and you feel her heartbreak and emotions and pain.Every time I hear this song and see the music video I can't help but feel sorry for Jennifer Nettles.
Jay, you stopped it at the ABSOLUTE WORST TIME when she finally did the flip in the lyrics telling him to STAY with his wife. (BTW, when I realized she was his mistress, I STOPPED feeling sorry for her - having been IN that situation! 😪)
I think she was the married woman but she wrote this song from the other women's perspective to show her husband how his actions hurt everyone involved.
1 thing people need to realize a lot of the time "the other woman" doesn't know she's the other woman, and it can be months sometimes longer before they find out and feelings develop and it's not so easy to just turn those off. Just saying "the other woman" is not always evil or at fault, sometimes they just make a mistake and step off with the wrong guy who's good at keeping a double life. Its hard to judge people when you don't know what the circumstance is.
I'm a grown ass man and not particularly emotional, but when I see this girl sing this song it takes everything I have to keep from crying.
If you want to feel the opposite, look up Sugarland "Sex On Fire", it's a black and white video. It's hot, and yes I am a woman...and it's hot. Lol

Nice choice. Jennifer Nettles pulls on the heartstrings with “Stay”
You'll be surprised just how soulful, much of country music actually is.
Try Martina McBride- "Concrete Angel", or "Independence Day", or Broken Wings", or give Patry Cline a listen-"Crazy", or "I Fall To Pieces", or "Walking After Midnight", or "She's Got You", to start' country music is full of female artists with beautiful voices, and the men have to sing pretty good, too. There's so many it's hard to pick just a couple.
Yes! Patsy Cline!
Yes to all of these!
concrete Angel will pull your heart out through your chest
Concrete Angel should be watched with tissues.
It is nice to she how much you love her voice. She definitely has a beautiful voice....a very special gift.
Her voice is incredible, but that guitar is perfect for the song too.
Take a look at Brad Paisley and Alison Krauss "Whiskey Lullabye."
Ricky Schroeder is so good in that video too….such an Amazing song and video.

I love how you feel her pain. I know the song and know I will cry ugly while singing it. Thank You for sharing your emotional reaction.
A couple of years ago they made a movie about Dolly Parton called "The Coat Of Many Colors" and this woman played Dolly's mama
I saw Sugarland live in concert. When she sang this song, a lot of people, including me cried. ❤
Yes, she’s the other woman and then she wises up and builds up the strength to tell him to Stay at Home. Country music is full of story songs. Please don’t hold it against the artist.
Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush are Sugarland.
Don’t forget Reba McEntire for female Friday please.
In many ways, country music is blues with a twang. They both tell stories of heartache.
Statement not true
Reba had the other woman song too.. with duet.
Wrong she was not the other woman, she was the wife the husband cheated on. The first part of the song was thru the other woman's eyes. Then the last part was for her. Look up the interview she gave about it.

WOW! I must have been slipping part of the time last year because I MISSED this reaction until now. Thank you as always - this is a great song!
For female country artists, I would suggest;
1- Faith Hill; "It matters to me", "A man's home is a castle", "Take me as I am".
2-Trisha Yearwood; "Georgia Rain", "down on my knees", "I would have loved you anyway", "The Song remembers when".
3-Lorrie Morgan; "Something in Red", "Picture of me", "if you came back from heaven", "Good as I was to you", "Autumn's not that cold".
4- Martina Mcbride; "Concrete angel", "Independence Day", "God's Will", "Broken Wing", "In my daughter's eyes", "I'm gonna love you through it". 🤠
And The Chicks
I can't listen to Concrete Angel without falling apart in tears
5 - Chrystal Gayle "Don't make my brown eyes blue", "Talking in your sleep"
6 - Nancy Griffith "Deadwood South Dakota"
I agree with Trisha down on my knees but also paint myself into corners is another great one!
FINALLY some Jennifer Nettles with her best performance in their many songs. Thank you for this one. An exceptional talent.
She was the wife who was cheated on, in reality. So, she writes a heart wrenching song from the point of view of the side chick. Brilliant.

Jennifer Nettles is an AWESOME VOCALIST FROM Georgia. And this is such an EMOITONAL Song
I saw Sugarland is our small town with a free concert in the park. There were 3 in the group. Their first album hadn't come out yet. It was amazing!
I love the end when she stands up for herself, and sends him packing
Very powerful song with tons of emotion, she's always been one of my favorites..
This song was done when she was going through a really bad divorce. With this song she turns the table and sings as the mistress. Jennifer Nettles voice is so country. She’s perfect for country.

Jennifer Nettles and Bon Jovi did a song together Who says you can’t go home. You should check that out. One of my favorites

To make even more of a point, this is acoustic, just a guitar done by her partner of the duo, no other instruments. This is the power of the best Country songs, to make the listener step in and live the words along with the singer. 25 cents by the Wilkinsons is also a strong one to listen to
This is one of my all time fav songs. How can you not be in love with her? So much emotion......
If you think Jennifer’s voice is strong in “Stay”, watch the video of her singing the Christmas song “O Holy Night”. It will blow you away! If it doesn’t give you chills or goosebumps, you might want to check your pulse.
This! Her version of “O Holy Night” is absolute perfection.
Just found you tonight. Enjoyed your reaction to Fancy. I love this song. Always makes me cry!!
More Sugarland please. My daughter's wedding song, eleven years ago was "Stuck Like Glue." Any Sugarland would be amazing, but that one would be very special
First time watcher, new subscriber!!! I absolutely love you guys and watching y’all react to this Sugarland! You guys are beautiful humans, and it shows! ❤️
OMG!!! This is my first time hearing Sugarland. Jennifer Nettles obviously has a connection to this song and some event in her life that she has not moved past. It may have been painful to her, but it make for a performance that was genuine and totally amazing. I have to look into more music by Sugarland!
I'm not a big country fan but I love your channel and gave it a listen and have to say WOW!!! Still not a country fan but love this song. Brought tears to these old eyes.
Not sure how you stumbled on this one but Jennifer Nettles can sing her behind off and it's emotional af. Enjoy
Still hoping you guys choose Haley Reinhart With PMJ doing Creep.
Haley so so unique. Loved her on American Idol, but was mad when she beat out my favorite that year to take 3rd. :)
"Still hoping you guys choose Haley Reinhart With PMJ doing Creep. "
YES PLEASE!!!!!!
Also, PMJ "Dream On" is great, and since they like rap, the PMJ cover of "Ice Ice Baby" is hilarious!
There is a live version of this song as well, and during the performance, she has tears streaming from her eyes!
Her voice is out of this world god but the pain she felt in this song is real
Still seems like yesterday when you guys reactied to this.....Going back over songs that I love.. and your reaction to this is one of the best, you listened...and let her voice take you to the place where she was, ...so much hurt. This song held so much emotion for her I have tears every time I listen to this... every time!!
I'm definitely not a country fan but WOW! What a voice, made my eyes water!
you never know, you might be after this one...
Your loss.
Thank you for playing the song I love this woman.
I see plenty of people have given you the backstory. Since this was a pretty emotional song, I'm going to suggest that you watch their song Stuck Like Glue, the official video. Totally different type of song and I think you'll get a kick out of it.
Definitely stuck like glue, see her other side
Was gonna suggest so ill just add my heck yeah gotta do stuck like glue lolol
I love them so much. Jennifer is amazing! I got to meet and chat with Kristian at the Opry a few years ago and he was so nice!
First time hearing this and girl put it all out there.
I gotta pause this (I’m gonna cry). With ya bro.
This was life, this song almost didnt happen. Her Partner wanted to stop it because they needed to stop several times so she could compose herself. The tears were real no acting there and a beautiful song from the heart! Real country music!!
U guys picked a BANGER
Even after all these years I still deeply feel this song. Maybe it's because I know how she feels being cheated on, maybe it's because of her amazing voice either way is a master piece
It was fun watching the grls with you guys, pretty good lil' reactors, Thanks for sharing, Peace
You would love Martina McBride, first one I suggest is God's Will. A beautiful song that inspires and brings a tear to the eye.
Sugarland is fantastic. Jennifer Nettles can melt ice and blow the doors off with her strong vocals. Can't go wrong with Sugarland ❤
jennifer nettles had real tears in this video she was going through a divorce but she wrote this from the other womans perspective
Not true she wrote the song in 2003 and divorced in 2007
Her voice is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. I turn to mush whenever I hear this song!😪
What I love about this song is with all the songs from the wife’s perspective or the mistress’s perspective, there is never any repercussion or blame on the cheating man. I love that by the end of the song, she gets her gumption back and dumps his wandering butt…telling him to keep his married rear end home and don’t come back to her. That doesn’t Leah’s happen in songs like this. You go girl!
Best voice in country music, she can sing anything.
This performance certainly drained her. Written about her breakup with her husband. He was cheating. This is from the perspective of the other woman. She finally got the strength to stand up to him.
She was going thru a divorce but not because he cheated, that's a common misconception. After hearing Reba's song " Whoever's in New England" she wanted to look at it from the "other woman's" point of view.
@@jtd5849 MY WORD.... Look it up. It's NO SECRET.... Her husband was cheating, she wrote this from the other woman's perspective. Her tears were real as she was divorcing him at the time....
@@michaelgilbert197 MY WORD! www.cmt.com/news/1578707/the-story-behind-sugarlands-stay/ . Oopsy ,
@@jtd5849 This.
@@michaelgilbert197 , yes divorce was real, tears were real but i've seen the interview where she talks about this being in response to Reba"s song, not her marriage.
I have watched many reaction videos. Yours appear to be so authentic. I'm always taken by your videos.
You gotta react to Martina McBride’s “Independence Day”! Maybe save that one for the Female Friday just before July 4th?????
This is a VERY Powerful song!
She was going through a divorce while recording this song. Her husband was the one cheating on her, so, she wrote about the other woman's point of view. When you see her crying, she's really crying. Her guitarist, Kristian told to them keep rolling when she was crying, because she couldn't get through the song without breaking down. He had had enough of seeing her suffer. They filled in the song after they were done recording.
Jennifer Nettles is one of those country singers that has the "IT" factor. She not only has a voice that will make you cry like this song but she has an uplifting voice that will make feel great on happier tunes with this amazing duo! I hope you do more Sugarland because you will not be disappointed at all!
Sugarland is Jennifer Nettles (singer) and Kristian Bush (guitarist). This was recorded while she was going through a divorce resulting from her husband cheating. Yet she sang it so well from the other woman’s perspective. SO much talent. You should watch their video for the song “Unlove You”. Side note, Kristian was once the guitarist for Annie Lennox, definitely NOT country. There were originally 3 members to Sugarland on their first album.
Truly great artist and a wonderful reaction.
More for female Friday. Want a banger? Try Melissa Etheridge "Bring Me Some Water" or "I'm the Only One". Want something a little more funky try Rickie Lee Jones "Youngblood"
I remember the first time I saw this video. I wanted to reach through the screen and give her a hug!
Do Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley featuring Allison Kraus. Do the video. Trust me.
Like this comment, please.
Just put it on the list!
5 hankie Amber warning! Lol!
Jennifer Nettles is singing her heart out and her vocals is amazing on this song and you feel her heartbreak and emotions and pain.Every time I hear this song and see the music video I can't help but feel sorry for Jennifer Nettles.
Jennifer Nettles is my absolute favorite female singer! You should listen the Sugarland’s live version of “Sex on Fire!” Powerful!
I just now stumbled onto this which is a little late. That said, it is all about her eyes! Her eyes sell the song here! Beautiful!
Ideas for female Friday.
Iris DeMent: let the mystery be.
Natalie Merchant: carnival ,beloved wife or wonder🙂
Jennifer Nettles is an amazing, emotive singer. Sugarland has a bunch of great songs.
Jay, you stopped it at the ABSOLUTE WORST TIME when she finally did the flip in the lyrics telling him to STAY with his wife. (BTW, when I realized she was his mistress, I STOPPED feeling sorry for her - having been IN that situation! 😪)
I think she was the married woman but she wrote this song from the other women's perspective to show her husband how his actions hurt everyone involved.
Absolutely heart wrenching 😢. I loved y'alls reaction!
