Keith Urban takes to the rooftop as he calls on all of his fellow “Wild Hearts” to look up. The upbeat and uplifting single “goes out to the drifters/ And all of the dreamers/ Ready to fly/ All those born to be rock stars/ Keep lifting your guitars/ And painting the sky/ Can you hear me?/ All of you lost ones who aren’t really lost ones/ Keep shining your light/ This goes out to the wild cards, who’s got a wild heart?/ Just like mine.” The video, which Urban premiered Wednesday morning (February 16), brings the “Wild Hearts” together and sees them achieve their dreams of relocating the rooftop rendition to a sold-out stage.
Urban released the hit single in August 2021, cowriting it with Brad Tursi, Jennifer Wayne and Eric Paslay. The release came shortly after Urban teased the new song by posting a throwback photo of himself as a kid playing the guitar on stage. At that time, the country giant noted to fans that it would be “a WILD week,” dedicating the song to “all the drifters and all of the dreamers, ready to fly.” The motivational anthem kicks off with Urban’s recollection of a Johnny Cash show he attended with his late father, remembering his dad watch the legendary musician in awe. Urban previously credited both of his parents with inspiring and supporting his music. Watch his new “Wild Hearts” video here:
