Clearly, their version of “Tennessee Whiskey” was far superior, but that’s because it’s a much better song to start off with. Try watching Stapleton sing about how liquor used to be his only love while staring with devotion directly at his wife Morgane without your skin erupting in goosebumps.

You can’t, right? Me either. Expect to see Stapleton held up as the new but-he’s-actually-good country poster child in the Kacey Musgraves tradition. Spoiler alert: he is good, but there’s plenty more underrated country singer/songwriters who are good, too.
Traveller is out now via Mercury Records Nashville.
