Content


"Can't Shake You" is a midtempo ballad about a male who, despite breaking up, cannot "shake" the memory of a former lover.[1] The lyric features the male's perspective on the first verse, which is sung by Tom Gossin, and a female perspective sung by Rachel Reinert on the second.

Co-writer James T. Slater said that he had the song's piano intro for nearly a year before collaborating with Stephanie Bentley and Tom Gossin. He told Taste of Country that the song's idea came after recalling that an ex-girlfriend still had possessions left at his house from two years prior.[2]


Critical reception


Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song 4 stars out of 5, saying that it "may be the most vulnerable moment" on the album. He also thought that the production and sound helped the band distinguish its sound from that of Lady Antebellum.[3]


Music video


TK McKamy directed the song's music video, which was filmed at Silverado's bar in Nashville.[4][5]
