Perhaps more than any other genre, duets have a deep, storied history within the canon of country music classics, with several male-female artist pairings crafting entire albums’ worth of duets. In 1981, married couple Jennings and Colter released the duets project Leather and Lace, spearheaded by this Colter-written single. The song portends that life’s hardships won’t outlast a strong love. Jennings would later include a live performance version of the song, alongside his Waymore Blues band, on his 2000 live album Never Say Die Live.
By the time this song released, Underwood and Paisley were already well-known for their onstage collaboration as co-hosts of the CMA Awards, a role they held for 11 years, from 2008 through 2018.In 1997, Brooks and Yearwood earned a No. 2 Billboard Country Airplay hit with this duet, written by Brooks with John Peppard and Bobby Wood.
