Little Big Town released the latest song on their highly-anticipated 16-track project, holding out for a âbetter love next timeâ after having bad luck with someone else: âSo, my heart bit the dust/ So, what/ It is what it is, and it ainât what it wasnât/ Oh, well/ What the hell/ Bad luck this time/ Better love next time.â
âBetter Loveâ debuted on Friday (August 12), following the sentimental âRich Manâ (which bandmate Jimi Westbrook has been developing for more than a decade), âAll Summerâ and âHell Yeah.â The bandâs 10th studio album, Mr. Sun, is set to release on September 16. Little Big Town â made up of Westbrook, Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman and Phillip Sweet â created the record during an âunprecedented period,â and now, thereâs a âspecial feelingâ to it,â Sweet previously said. âLife is short; we are here to live it with the ones around us, loving them and ourselves the best we can. All the while, thankful for another turn around the sun.â
