Break On Me
"Break on Me" (stylized as "Break on Me.") is a song written by Ross Copperman and Jon Nite and recorded by New Zealand-born Australian country music singer Keith Urban. It was released on 23 October 2015 as the second single from Urban's 2016 album '' Ripcord''. This ballad with its prominent bassline (played by Tal Wilkenfeld) was co-produced by Urban along with Nathan Chapman and has been deemed a stylistic counterpoint to its funky predecessor " John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16". The song is also the second of his career to not have an accompanying music video, after 2010's "I'm In". Critical reception Billy Dukes of ''Taste of Country'' complimented both the "nuanced" songwriting and Urban's "understated and accessible" delivery of the lyrics, noting that his approach elevates the song to something special. Chart performance "Break on Me" was the most-added song at country radio for the week of 26 October 2015 with 67 stations, according to radio monitoring organization ...
