If you like Kacey Musgraves for the country singer she used to be, you might as well stop reading. The only thing that links her new pop single to country is the letter ‘o’ that’s in both genres. Which reads as ‘0’. Well, okay, there’s ‘horse’ in the title, but that’s really it.

Talking about her upcoming album Golden Hour (out tomorrow, 30 March) and the disco influences in this single, Musgrave states: “I was on a huge Bee Gees kick whenever I was making this album and I was intrigued by the thought of a world where Bee Gees kind of meets country music. These days I only see music really as falling into two genres, good or bad.”
