For Shelton, it's "Nobody But You" as the single
The pair will sing "Nobody But You" at the upcoming GRAMMY awards.
The song, written by Ross Copperman, Shane McAnally, Josh Osborne and Tommy Lee James, is one of four new tracks on Shelton's recently released "Fully Loaded: God's Country.
"I was at The Voice compound, and Shane McAnally is on Songland, so they were there doing some cross-promotion. Shane came to my trailer and said, 'Man, I got a song for you,'" Shelton said. "I knew he had Gwen's number from a write, so I told him to send it to her as I was being called to set. I actually got the song twice because my producer Scott Hendricks emailed it to me right after. Then one day I was driving with Gwen and I said, "Hey let's listen to that song from Shane because Scott sent it to me too - it must be pretty incredible."
"When I heard it, I was just floored. I realized how important that song was for me and where I am in my life right now. I just think it's magical. I literally think it's important of a song as I've ever recorded."
Shelton is gearing up for season 18 of The Voice while prepping for more than a month on the road: his "Friends and Heroes 2020" tour begins Thursday, Feb. 13 in Portland, Ore.. Special guest Lauren Alaina will join him on the 16-date run in addition to appearances by The Bellamy Brothers, John Anderson and Trace Adkins.

CD reviews for Blake Shelton
Blake Shelton has been openly critical of the traditional album format. "Fully Loaded: God's Country" is his fourth greatest hits album and third in the "Loaded" series. In an effort to release music more often, he packages five new songs with seven of previously released material that has received considerable airplay and time on the charts.
if you're looking for the fresh stuff, this is essentially an EP spearheaded by the Platinum lead single "God's Country. ...
Blake Shelton's 11th studio album finds The Voice advisor in a contented, one might even say homey, frame of mind. The opening track and first single "I'll Name the Dogs" sets the tone. It's a rollicking ode to domesticity that manages to make household chore distribution ("You find the spot and I'll find the money / You be the pretty and I'll be the funny") both romantic and amusing. The beat switches to hip-hop on "Money," but the sentiment ...
This six-song "Blake Shelton Live EP" seems a little odd. It's not as though Shelton had an especially noteworthy tour to document. Besides, at only six songs long, it's a relatively short document, anyhow. While it may be little more than a post-it note of a project, though, it also packs a powerful punch.
