Keith Urban<\/a> has now played three shows since his\u00a0divorce\u00a0<\/a>from Nicole Kidman<\/a> went public in late September.<\/p>\n That also makes three shows in a row<\/a> that he’s opted not to play “The Fighter.”<\/p>\n However, he\u00a0has<\/em> played another song that some fans have linked to his split from Kidman.<\/p>\n That’s “You’ll Think of Me,” a track off Urban’s 2002 Golden Road<\/em> album. It\u00a0is perhaps his best-known breakup song.<\/p>\n Read More<\/em>: Keith Urban + Nicole Kidman: Who Gets What in the Divorce?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Urban sang “You’ll Think of Me” during his Oct. 2 performance in Hershey, Pa., which was the first show he played after his divorce news came out.<\/p>\n He also embellished the lyrics, changing “Take your space and take your reasons<\/em>” to “Take your space and your stupid bulls–t reasons<\/em>.”<\/p>\n Was Urban referencing his breakup in the lyric change<\/a>? It’s hard to say.<\/p>\n The singer is a notoriously free-flowing performer, who makes small lyric changes in live performances all the time.<\/p>\n Read More<\/em>: Keith Urban Made 3 Changes to His Tour After Nicole Kidman Split<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n He’s also famous for his passion onstage, so it’s not a huge surprise that he’d be getting into the character of the song as he sang for the crowd.<\/p>\n He’s even changed lyrics in this line of “You’ll Think of Me” in the past. But adding “stupid bulls–t reasons<\/em>” is a little stronger of a change than Urban would typically make.<\/p>\n Some fans thought there was a clear link between the embellishment and Urban’s personal feelings toward his divorce.<\/p>\n “I’ve seen him sing this live before but never with this emotion,” one fan wrote in the comments section of the fan-filmed TikTok video.<\/p>\n “He is hurting,” another said.<\/p>\n “He’s always very passionate when he performs this song. But this was next level,” a third opined.<\/p>\n However, some thought those fans were reading too much into the moment.<\/p>\n “He’s been singing it like that for years, fools,” a commenter said.<\/p>\n “He always add this lyrics…I don’t see what the big deal is,” added another.<\/p>\n The obvious theory is that Urban cut “The Fighter” from his set list in order to avoid feeding the rumor mill.<\/p>\n In the wake of his split from Kidman, public speculation began linking Urban to his multi-instrumentalist Maggie Baugh, an up-and-coming singer-songwriter who’s also done some touring with Urban during his current High and Alive World Tour.<\/p>\n The romance rumors stem from a video of Urban and Baugh onstage together, in which he changed a lyric to sing, “Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player<\/em>.”<\/p>\n Read More<\/em>: Keith Urban + Maggie Baugh: The Truth is Obvious, But Not Convenient<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n There’s really no evidence to suggest that Baugh and Urban are anything more than colleagues.<\/p>\n A closer look at the videos<\/a> — and at Urban’s history of performing the song with a variety of duet partners, including his original recording partner Carrie Underwood<\/a> —\u00a0 make this rumor look even more baseless.<\/p>\n On Saturday (Oct. 4), TMZ<\/a> cited an anonymous source who claimed that Urban excluded “The Fighter” from his set list simply as a way to keep the show fresh, and that he frequently makes changes to his set lists.<\/p>\n That’s true, but “The Fighter” — which ranks No. 22 in Setlist.fm’s list of his most-played songs in his career to date — has been a fixture of Urban’s High and Alive World Tour.<\/p>\n He’s played it 27 times on this tour so far<\/a>, including nearly all of the dates in the weeks before his divorce news broke.<\/p>\n Probably not.<\/p>\n Urban has recorded many songs that he’s said were inspired by Kidman or his marriage, including “Gemini,” “Without You” and “Female.”<\/p>\n Read More<\/em>: The Best Keith Urban Songs About Nicole Kidman<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n He hasn’t played those songs at his recent shows, but in fairness, none of them are part of his current set list.<\/p>\n Across Urban’s live career as a whole, “The Fighter” is his most-played song out of all the songs he’s said Kidman inspired.<\/p>\n After that is “Once in a Lifetime,” which he wrote for Kidman before their wedding. Urban last performed that song in May 2023, according to Setlist.fm<\/a>.<\/p>\n “Without You” hasn’t been a regular part of his set list since late 2023, and another Kidman-inspired song, “Got it Right This Time,” hasn’t shown up much in his live show since 2008.<\/p>\n Simply put, Urban has a lot of hit songs. Many of them are excluded from his set list simply in order to leave enough room for the mega-hits like “Somebody Like You” and “Days Go By.”<\/p>\n Photos of Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman, through their years.
