As "Break Mine" descends upon country radio, Brothers Osborne are breaking down the meaning behind their half-romantic and half-aching new single.
"It's a song about relationships that are kind of on the rocks and you're telling someone, 'Look, if you just want to have [a] one-night stand and you want to break my heart, that's fine. Bring it,'" John explains. "That's the general crux of the song."
"Yeah, like I'm not afraid of this," TJ adds. "Whether this goes on forever, good. If it doesn't, then if you're looking for a heart to break, then break mine. Let's do this."

Speaking of Kelly Clarkson, the pop superstar recently covered Reba McEntire's "Till You Love Me" on her talk show's Kellyoke segment. If you missed it, you can head over to YouTube to watch it.
Scotty McCreery's highs and lows take center stage in a new backstage video shared by the Grand Ole Opry.
Recorded at the historic venue, Scotty reflected on his career trajectory, post-Idol life, the career-changing "Five More Minutes" and being inducted into the Opry by his hero Josh Turner and country icon Randy Travis.
"To be able to come back [to the Grand Ole Opry] over and over and over over the years and play this stage, and it's always felt like home, they really are so welcoming and so warm here. Now, it's like, 'Oh, this actually is home,'" Scotty says in the interview.
Reflecting on life advice he'd give his son, the "Cab in a Solo" singer shares, "My biggest thing for Avery with all this going on is when he grows up, I'll tell him, 'This is daddy's dream and he accomplished his dream. So buddy, whatever your dream is, chase that, too, because it can come true.'"
"I'm extremely grateful to sing country music for a living, to have this stage to play at and to be welcomed into this family," Scotty adds.
The video features Parker fully in his element onstage at a sold-out headlining show at Texas' Moody Center, but the focal person is not him — it's his mother.
Besides performance footage, the video interweaves heartfelt photos and clips of Parker and his mom from over the years, including them dancing together on Parker's wedding day.
Though Parker didn't write "Things I Never Told You," he says its storyline resonated with him.
"My buddy Taylor Phillips sent this song to me one day. He wrote it with Lynn Hutton and Monty Criswell and just one time through…I didn’t even listen to the whole song, but halfway through after the first chorus, I said, 'I’m in. I’m singing that song,'" Parker shares.
"It reminded me so much of my mom and I knew she would love to hear it," the Texas native recalls. "I didn’t tell her anything about it. I had her come to one of [our] tour rehearsals this year and played it for her there, full band with the whole production and everything and an empty amphitheater. It was kind of cool."
He adds, "I cut that just for her and thought it was such an amazing song."
You can find "Things I Never Told You" on Parker's latest album, Never Enough, out now.
