Listen To Blake Shelton’s Personal New Single, ‘Came Here To Forget’

Fans wondering if Blake Shelton would address his personal life in his new music now have the answer.

The superstar’s new single, “Came Here To Forget,”  is his first brand new material since his highly publicized split from Miranda Lambert, and there’s no doubt that the song is about exactly that.

The track, written by Craig Wiseman and Deric Ruttan, also hints at his new relationship with Gwen Stefani, who split from Gavin Rossdale, her husband of 13 years, last year.

“Girl you gettin’ over him, and I’m gettin’ over her,” Shelton sings in the opening line. From then on, it’s clear that “Came Here To Forget” is very personal to Shelton.

“I’ve had a lot of music over the years but I don’t think I’ve ever had a song before that’s such a direct look into my life,” said Shelton of the song when it was announced. “That’s why I’m so excited about this particular song.”

While he didn’t write the song, he sings it with such truth that you would believe he did.

“Came Here To Forget” is the lead single from his upcoming 12th studio album.
