Jennifer Nettles co-wrote her new song, “Unlove You,” with Brandy Clark, but she says even as the writer she can feel the emotion of the song, but perhaps in a different way. She says, “It offers a different kind of emotional stirring to perform it than it does to write it, or to hear it actualized in a recording than it does to perform it. For example, each of them offer something really special, but when you hear it all together, and I’m able to listen to it as a listener as well, it does offer a different power when it’s fully realized.”
The song is full of a lot of powerful emotion of longing and unrequited love and Jennifer says, “Sometimes I also hear myself as a third person observer, like it’s not me if I’m listening to it in that way, and sometimes, especially with this song, I think, oh how sad. Oh that’s so sad.”
“Unlove You” is the first release off of Jennifer’s forthcoming album, Playing with Fire, which will be released on May 13th.

Jennifer Nettles – Unlove you emotions as writer :40
“Even though ‘Unlove You’ is my song and I wrote it and I recorded it, it’s still absolutely does stir emotions in me whenever I hear it, and it does so in a different way. It offers a different kind of emotional stirring to perform it than it does to write it, or to hear it actualized in a recording than it does to perform it. For example, each of them offer something really special, but when you hear it all together, and I’m able to listen to it as a listener as well, it does offer a different power when it’s fully realized. And sometimes I also hear myself as a third person observer, like it’s not me if I’m listening to it in that way, and sometimes, especially with this song, I think, oh how sad. Oh that’s so sad.”
