And then I realized I can\u2019t alienate people that are still heartbroken. I still gotta write that song. And just because I\u2019m not going through it, I gotta draw from past heartbreak and remember what it felt like. And for me, the hardest thing I ever went through was when my wife and I broke up for two years when I first moved to Nashville, because there was a big part of me that always knew we weren\u2019t supposed to be broken up. I was supposed to be with her. And so, I actually draw from heartbreak with my wife years ago, in order to write songs.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Brett Young will be playing the Colosseum at Caesars Windsor on Thursday, June 19th.<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"insta-iframe\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DKawGXBMAR8\/embed\/captioned\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display:inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height:0;\"  class=\"mce_SELRES_start\"><\/span><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Brett Young says his wife inspires bother his happy songs and his heartbreak songs.
