Like most Americans, Keith Urban vividly recalls where he was when the terrorist attacks happened in New York City 20 years ago on Saturday, September 11th.<\/p>\n
He had just played a show in Florida and decided to stay at the beach for a few days of vacation before heading home to Nashville.<\/p>\n
“I remember that morning. I didn\u2019t turn the news on and I was really grateful that I didn\u2019t because I had a few extra hours before I was aware of this reality that was going on that would change everything. But the beach was deserted, and it was an eerie, ominous feeling in the air and I couldn\u2019t put my finger on it. when we ended up going back to the house that we were renting we put the news on and that was the first time I saw what was happening and I couldn\u2019t take it in. It was too surreal. It was a really, really traumatic time for a lot of people.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Like most Americans, Keith Urban vividly recalls where he was when the terrorist attacks happened in New York City 20 years ago on Saturday, September 11th.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":16162,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[3242,70,3253],"class_list":["post-16235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-9-11","tag-keith-urban","tag-september-11"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-12 21:14:42","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country959.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2021\/09\/keith-urban-reflects-on-9-11\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16235","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16235"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16235\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16236,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16235\/revisions\/16236"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16235"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16235"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cjwffm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16235"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
