Thomas Rhett & Katy Perry Perform “Where We Started” on American Idol
American country singer-songwriter Thomas Rhett appeared on American Idol to perform “Where We Started” with American singer-songwriter Katy Perry.
The song is included on his sixth studio album “Where We Started”, which was released on April 1, 2022.
It is the 15th track of the album. The track was written by Thomas Rhett, Jesse Frasure, Ashley Gorley and Jon Bellion.
Thomas Rhett told Apple Music about the song, “[Allison Jones from Big Machine] called me and said, 'Hey, how would you feel about making this song a feature?' And I was like, 'Well, who do you have in mind?' And she was like, 'Well, I was thinking about sending this song to Katie Perry.' And I kind of laughed because I was like, 'First of all, she doesn't know who I am. And second of all, she probably gets sent millions of songs a day and she's never done a country collaboration before.' And the next day she literally hit us back and said, 'I resonate with this song so much. Please send me the files. I want to put my vocal on it.” And a week later, I'm in the kitchen and my wife's standing there and I get a FaceTime from a LA number. And it's just Katie Perry shows up on my screen. And my wife's like, 'What are you doing?' I was like, 'I don't know.'”- source : abc
