Sheryl Crow is giving fans another taste of new music ahead of the upcoming release of her new album, Threads, with “Tell Me When It’s Over,” featuring the one and only Chris Stapleton.
Written by Crow and Stapleton, “Tell Me When It’s Over” is a mid-tempo track about the demise of a relationship. “Tell me when it’s over,” Crow croons, “cause I don’t want to be the last to know.”
Stapleton joins Crow throughout the call-and-response chorus.
