Keith Urban thanks wife Nicole Kidman for inspiring the No. 1 song 'The Fighter'
Keith Urban also thanked Carrie Underwood, his collaborator on the song, for being "so real and vulnerable" in the duet
Keith Urban is grateful to his wife - and his muse - Nicole Kidman for being the inspiration behind his song 'The Fighter' on which he collaborated with singer Carrie Underwood and American songwriter busbee (Michael James Ryan Busbee). The trio met at the Back Corner, Nashville on Monday to celebrate their chart-topping, CMA-nominated duet, about which busbee said, "It was one of those natural days, We walked into a room and we were able to pull stuff out of the sky. That was one of those days."
Urban on his part thanked Kidman for helping him conceive the song during one of their conversations before they got married. The singer revealed that in the conversation he was trying to assure the actress that he was a "good bet."
