You’ve probably seen your favourite country star forget part of a song, and then fake their way through it without you knowing the difference.

Keith Urban once forgot the guitar solo to “Highway Don’t Care” while he was on stage with Tim McGraw and Taylor Swift at CMA Fest in 2013, but no one knew it.

“I was halfway through the solo and went, ‘Oh, I probably should have practiced this before I got out here’ because I totally forgot it. And I can see the train-wreck look on my face and me trying to look like, ‘I ain’t nothing but a thing.’ But inside I was like, ‘what the hell is going on here?’ And then suddenly all those years of playing clubs comes in handy. And I remember the great phrase, ‘there is no wrong notes, just the look on your face.'”
