get together for an intimate discussion on the song they co-wrote for
“Nashville’s” season premiere, “I Know How To Love You Now.” During this week’s
OTR, the artists and friends talk about how they came up with the song, how the
lyrics were initially introduced during a pivotal moment during the season two
finale, and how the song ultimately ended up contributing to the overall story
line.
“Co-writing, you don’t always know if you’re going to get with the person
someone you can really trust to lay your deep secret stuff out there with,” said
Carter.
“Sometimes you find out ‘Well, I’m not sure how safe or how much I want to lay
bare.’ And I remember very well you started talking about that concept of a
relationship that had not been working for the longest time,” added Esten.
“I wanted the love of my life to say this song to me,” shared Carter.
