Keith Urban is currently completing the Australian leg of his epic Graffiti U World Tour. Urban decided to invite special guest Julia Michaels to join him Down Under, and she has been nothing short of spectacular! Perhaps the 25-year-old is best known for her lovely collaboration on “Lie To Me” with 5 Seconds Of Summer, but Michaels kicked off her careering by writing songs for pop stars Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez. Since, Michaels has earned the honor of singing at the 2016 Summer Olympics and opening for Maroon 5! Her talents were not overlooked.
When Keith Urban started work on his latest record, Graffiti U, he asked Michaels to co-write “Gemini,” a lovely song about his wife. However, Urban was not done working with the Iowa native. “He said, ‘I have this other song that I really love that I’m working on. Can you come and see if this is something you want to do?'” Michaels told Radio Disney. “I was like, ‘Yeah, definitely!’ And it’s basically done. I’m like, ‘What are you talking about? This is amazing!'”
To thank Michaels, the country star had a Steinway piano delivered to her house. “I was in shock. I think I hugged it for an hour,” Michaels said. The bond between Urban and Michaels is tight. Now, the duo are rocking venues performing their own version of “Lie To Me.”

“Lie To Me” Lyrics
I saw you looking brand new overnight
I caught you looking too, but you didn’t look twice
You look happy, oh, mmm
You look happy, oh
Flashing back to New York City
Changing flights so you stay with me
Remember thinking that I got this right
Now I wish we never met
Cause you’re too hard to forget
While I’m cleaning up your mess
I know he’s taking off your dress
I know that you don’t, but if I ask you if you love me
I hope you lie, lie, lie, lie, lie to me
It’s 3 AM and the moonlight’s testing me (ah)
I know that you’ve been holding on to someone else
And now I can’t sleep (ah)
I ain’t happy, oh
I ain’t too happy, ohhh
Flashing back to New York City
I was done but you undid me
Classic me to run when it feels right
Now I wish we never met
Cause you’re too hard to forget
While he’s taking off my dress
I know she’s laying on your chest
And I know that you don’t, but if I ask you if you love me
I hope you lie, lie, lie, lie, lie to me
Singing, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Li-li-lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
Li-li-lie, lie, lie, lie, lie
And I know that you don’t, but if I ask you if you love me
I hope you lie, lie, lie, lie, lie to me
