Monty Powell talked to The Boot about his latest No. 1 hit with Keith Urban, 'Sweet Thing.' Powell and Urban have been writing together for 15 years and have celebrated several big hits together. The two were honored with a party celebrating 'Sweet Thing' Thursday in Nashville.We spent the morning working on a song that frankly really wasn't great. We really tried hard to have a break through on it, and it wasn't happening. We were both kinda tired and grumpy and we were hungry so we just said, 'Let's go get some lunch.'
[Keith] had shown up at the house in his brand-new Mustang that his wife, Nicole Kidman, had given him as a gift. I was like, 'This car is spectacular, let's go in it.' We went driving around and got some lunch and then we drove [around] for a little bit because we were having such a good time.
We came back to the house and instead of even revisiting the song we had started that morning, Keith just started playing this rift on the guitar that is now the 'Sweet Thing' rift at the top. I just started singing this lyric about the car and the first date he had with Nicole. The song just started flowing so I really have to thank the car for giving us the inspiration for this one.
