This one is a little boring, and with its cliche’ lyric and plodding pace, seems more like album filler. Keeping things slow for the radio releases this time out, ‘I Can’t Get Over You’ would be the fourth single. The mournful waltz seemed tailor made for Dunn’s smooth tenor. This tune finds the narrator observing the number of marriages breaking up, and finally concludes, ‘ It’s my belief, pride if the chief cause/In the decline of husbands and wives‘. A cover of Roger Miller’s country and pop hit from 1966, ‘Husbands and Wives’ was the third consecutive #1 from the set. Melodic and melancholy, it continued the style the pair had set for themselves, and sailed to the #1 spot as well.

A fifth single release would fail to crack the top 40 – the first of their career – and so far the only release – to do so.Īfter the chart-topping title track, the mid-tempo ‘How Long Gone’ was sent to radio. The Brooks & Dunn disc would bow at a #4 peak on the Country Albums chart and eventually sell two million copies – on the strength of three chart-topping singles and a fourth top 5. Reba would call hers If You See Him and the duo’s would be billed If You See Her. Likewise, both albums were released on the same day. I’m not sure a duo had ever taken on another star pairing for a single release in country music’s history, but Brooks & Dunn did just that with the release of the single.

I’ve always been impressed with the album-counterpart idea, and given the success both acts had I’m surprised the idea hasn’t been repeated.

Recording that duet set the wheels in motion for another national tour pairing between the redhead and the pair of cowpokes, plus it set the stage for a really innovative cross-label promotion of the albums that would contain the song, now titled ‘If You See Him, If You See Her’. When they found out what happened, they decided to do the song a duet between the two acts, becoming a sort of trio at the end. Reba and Kix Brooks both heard a song called ‘If You See Him’ (or maybe it was called ‘If You See Her’ and Reba intended to change the lyric – that part I don’t know) and put it on hold, unbeknownst to each other. In early 1998, both acts were working on new albums. But that 1997 tour was supposed to be a one time deal, and besides, Ronnie Dunn already had a duet partner at the time. Between them, they possess two of the finest voices in modern country music. But Reba and Ronnie’s take on the Cindy Walker classic was really the highlight of the evening. At the end of that tour, Reba and Ronnie Dunn would perform ‘You Don’t Know Me’ as a duet before being joined onstage by Kix Brooks for a song I think was called ‘Cotton Fields’. One night Reba would open for Brooks & Dunn and the next night they’d switch. Brooks & Dunn spent 1997 on tour together with Reba McEntire as co-headliners.
