Keith Urban Releases 2:45am Version of “MESSED UP AS ME”
Australian singer-songwriter Keith Urban released a new version of “MESSED UP AS ME” called “MESSED UP AS ME (2:45am version)” on September 6, 2024.
The original version of the song was released back in March from his upcoming twelfth studio album “HIGH”.
The track was written by Jessie Jo Dillon, Michael Lotten, Rodney Clawson and Shane McAnally. The new version was produce by Keith and UrbanPete Kuzma.
Keith Urban said of the song, “I've got to have experienced what the song is about, you know? And that was absolutely the case with 'Messed Up as Me'. I've definitely been in those situations, not just once. But I know that place really well, and that's everything for me [about] why a song is going to work for me or isn't going to work for me.”
He continued, "It's like someone's sending you a song and they go, 'This is a really hit song,' and I go, 'I don't feel it.' Maybe it's a hit song, but it doesn't feel true to who I am. And 'Messed Up as Me' was [one that I felt] in every part of me right from the beginning.”- He added, “Most of us have been in dysfunctional relationships before, where there's not a lot of compatibility, except for that one area where it's so good you put up with all the rest. A phone call or a night out and you're right back where you shouldn't be.”

The new album “HIGH” is set to be released on September 20, 2024.
The album is comprises a 12-track, featuring guest appearances from American country singer-songwriter Lainey Wilson.
Keith Urban said of the album, “This album is the result of a prior record I started in 2022. It's 40 minutes top to bottom, and is completely expressive, true, honest and is so much more of what I actually wanted to say when making that scrapped record. I hope these songs bring you joy, levity, some new understanding, energy, and escape!” - source : Apple Music
