Audiences in the United States and the United Kingdom had very different reactions to Jason Aldean and Carrie Underwood’s “If I Didn’t Love You.”

Jason Aldean and Carrie Underwood collaborated on a ballad called “If I Didn’t Love You.” Subsequently, Aldean was convinced the song would “go down as one of the biggest duets in country music.” Notably, the song’s video won multiple CMT Awards.

How ‘If I Didn’t Love You’ came to be

As per a 2022 CMT News story, Kurt Allison, Tully Kennedy, John Morgan, and Lydia Vaughan co-stated “In the event that I Didn’t Cherish You.” Aldean felt it would work with Underwood’s voice. Luckily, she had no new music on her timetable.

“Her voice was the one I heard on the melody,” Aldean said. “I sent it to Carrie and she needed to hear a variant of it with my voice on it. So I ran into the studio and tossed a vocal on it, sent it back, and was like, ‘alright, presently what is your take?'”

What Jason Aldean considered Carrie Underwood’s vocals on the track

Aldean had major areas of strength for a to the melody. “From the second she came in and began singing on it, me and [my producer] were like, ‘Heavenly [moly], this will be great. We thought it would have been great, yet this will be extraordinary,” he said. “I think this will go down as quite possibly of the greatest two part harmony in blue grass music. I’m truly pleased to be a piece of it.”

Underwood examined her response to the track. “I said, ‘It’s this tune they sent over that perhaps I’ll sing with Jason,'” she made sense of. “He goes, ‘It’s great.’ I was like, ‘I know.'”

“If I Didn’t Love You” became one of the biggest hits in Underwood’s career. It peaked at No. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100, staying on the chart for 25 weeks. Only three of Aldean’s songs — “Dirt Road Anthem,” “Take a Little Ride,” and “Burnin’ It Down” — charted higher.

“If I Didn’t Love You” appeared on Aldean’s album Macon, Georgia. The album peaked at No. 8 on the Billboard 200, remaining on the chart for 12 weeks.

On the other hand, “If I Didn’t Love You” wasn’t as popular in the United Kingdom. According to The Official Charts Company, the song did not chart in the U.K. None of Aldean’s songs or albums charted there.

Regardless, the song’s video won critical acclaim. Billboard reports the video won the CMT Music Awards for Video of the Year and Collaborative Video of the Year. Aldean had lots of faith in “If I Didn’t Love You” and the song became a major hit.
