It&#8217;s such a joy working with her, and I feel like I&#8217;ve learned a lot in the process. As far as the song, &#8216;Can You Die From A Broken Heart&#8217; is the epitome of what a heartbreak ballad should feel and sound like. The bridge is my favourite part of the song because it&#8217;s so epic with the soaring ohs and feels like it gives the slightest nod to &#8216;I&#8217;m With You&#8217;, which happens to be my favourite Avril song. I think this song will touch hearts in a deep and meaningful way.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;I have always been a huge fan of country music since I was young, and I admire Nate&#8217;s work as an artist,&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em>says Lavigne.&nbsp;<em>&#8220;Earlier this year, we performed our version of &#8216;Bulletproof&#8217; at the ACMs and since then I knew I wanted to do more with Nate because we had the best time. &#8216;Can You Die from a Broken Heart&#8217; is an intense ballad that I think will resonate deeply with people and leave a lasting emotional impact.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, Smith, who is currently is currently on his 2024&nbsp;<em>Through The Smoke<\/em>&nbsp;headline tour in the U.S., was yesterday announced as a main stage artist at next year&#8217;s C2C: Country to Country Festival, performing in London, Glasgow and Belfast, and sharing the stage with&nbsp;<strong>Cody Johnson&nbsp;<\/strong>and<strong>&nbsp;Shaboozey<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; tickets on sale this Friday (Oct 4) at 10am BST:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/c2c-countrytocountry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/c2c-countrytocountry.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 16-track album will also include previously released tracks &#8216;Fix What Your Didn&#8217;t Break&#8217;, &#8216;Wish I Never Felt&#8217;, Smith&#8217;s collaboration with Alesso &#8216;I Like It&#8217;, which is currently Top 10 at Dance radio and has over 120 million global streams, as well as the RIAA certified platinum track &#8216;Bulletproof&#8217;, which broke records and scored Smith his first No. 1 on the UK country radio chart, and his 3rd&nbsp;consecutive multi-week No. 1 on the Mediabase chart.
