McEntire, Brooks & Dunn release acoustic "If You See Him, If You See Her"
They teamed up with Dave Cobb to record a stripped-down version of the song.
The original song was the lead single on both Reba's album "If You See Him" and Brooks & Dunn's "If You See Her," released concurrently by different record labels in 1998. The hit held the number one spot for back-to-back weeks. The duet was sparked by their in-demand multi-year tour and marked one of many career collaborations between the two acts, including a Las Vegas residency.
The acoustic version of "If You See Him, If You See Her" is one of 14 tracks from Reba's upcoming album, "Not That Fancy," due Oct. 6. The collection of stripped-down hits will also feature a brand new single "Seven Minutes In Heaven."
The album accompanies McEntire's upcoming book, "Not That Fancy: Simple Lessons on Living, Loving, Eating, and Dusting Off Your Boots." Set to release Oct. 10, the book is an collection of personal stories, photos, lifestyle tips and recipes.

With "My Chains Are Gone," McEntire gives us a selection of songs she – like Underwood – grew up singing. Therefore, she knows them all like the back of her hand, the way ...
The beauty of Reba McEntire's albums flows from her way with a phrase, knowing when to modulate to carry us deeper into sadness or joy and when to pull back when she wants us to listen quietly to the lessons of a tear falling. Her songs can also urge us to scamper across the dance floor to twin fiddles, celebrating the exhilarating freedom of the moment or the satisfaction of breakup from a messy relationship. This album follows the end of McEntire's marriage to her manager. ...
Brooks and Dunn return with the duo's first studio album in a dozen years. Sort of. That's because they revisit a dozen of their hits (leaving a bunch behind) with contemporary country singers.
