For those who have heard “Whiskey Lullaby,” you know it’s a truly heartbreaking and tragic song about betrayal, regret, and self-blame.

 

And the moment Brad Paisley heard the song; he knew he had to record it. He enlisted another country superstar for a breathtaking duet – and it’s none other than the female artist with the most Grammy wins, Alison Krauss.

 

Released in 2004 off Paisley’s album Mud on the Tires, “Whiskey Lullaby” peaked at No. 3 on Billboard Hot Country Singles and Tracks charts and was even a crossover success reaching No. 41 on the Billboard Hot 100.

 

The song also won the 2005 Country Music Association Song of the Year Award.

 

“It’s an angelic, ghostly bluegrass ballad, really a tragedy, and I think when I get to heaven if the angels don’t sound like Alison Krauss, we have been cheated,” Paisley said about the song in 2013 with Entertainment Weekly.

 

“What’s interesting is it was never expected to be a single. And it’s a good example of how I was slowly able to expand my comfort zone, like getting away with ‘I’m Gonna Miss Her’ and ‘Celebrity’ – songs that were just not what you would have expected from the guy that did Who Needs Pictures.”

 

A Song Written By Legends

 

Written by Bill Anderson and Jon Randall, “Whiskey Lullaby” tells the tale of a couple who had an abruptly painful separation leading both to alcoholism. In what seems to be an unfortunate event, the two eventually found themselves drinking to death: first, the man, with a broken heart, and followed by the woman, feeling guilty for the man’s death.

 

“He put that bottle to his head. And pulled the trigger and finally drank away her memory. Life is short, but this time it was bigger than the strength he had
