It “Ain’t a Bad Life” when you have two songs in country’s top 15. Just ask Jordan Davis.
At #12 is his third single from Learn the Hard Way.
“‘Turn This Truck Around’ is one that — I wanted to do it because I felt like it was different,” he tells ABC Audio. “I felt it was something we’ve never released.”
The other is his pal Thomas Rhett’s “Ain’t a Bad Life,” from the deluxe editionof his About a Woman collection.
“Me and Thomas have always talked about doing a song together and this song was perfect for it,” Jordan says. “He played it for me, and I finally pestered him enough to where he allowed me to sing on it.”
“But now they’re both doing great, so it’s really cool to have two songs out working, but man the one with Thomas is special,” he adds.
“Ain’t a Bad Life” is currently at #4 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart.

In recent years, Shaggy has been working with Sting, but his new single features another musical collaborator: Robin Thicke. The two have joined forces for a new single called “Looking Lovely,” which interpolates the classic 1977 Bill Withers song “Lovely Day.” Shaggy said it was his idea to flip the song and put Robin on the record.
“It’s such an iconic track … I’ve been, you know, messing with for a while,” he told ABC Audio, adding, “Once Robin and I had connected and there was this friendship between him and I, I said, ‘Yo, you’d be perfect for this.’ I think his vibe that he’s on, he sings about ladies, and me, I’m ‘Mr. Lover Lover.'”
He laughed, “I just think the whole thing is sexy, man!”
Robin said he initially didn’t want to even consider singing over an iconic track like “Lovely Day,” but Shaggy’s take on it changed his mind.
“As soon as the music kicked in, I was like, ‘Oh, I don’t wanna touch this,'” he told ABC Audio. “But then I heard his voice, and I was, like, his voice makes it fresh. It brings into a new audience into a fresh, youthful feeling. And so it just made it sound brand-new to me. And I was like, ‘O.K., with his voice, it makes [sense].’ If it was just me, I wouldn’t do it.”
The two have now performed the song a few times on TV, including on Live with Kelly & Mark. Will they get together on tour and sing it live? “Well, it’s just the beginning, and we’re both tour junkies,” Robin said. “We both love being out on the road and doing our thing, so we’ll see where the rest of the year takes us, but we’re open to it.”

In the new Ryan Gosling movieProject Hail Mary, the character of Eva Stratt, played by Sandra Hüller, performs a karaoke version of Harry Styles’ debut solo hit, “Sign of the Times.” How did that particular song end up in the movie and its soundtrack? Turns out it was Sandra Hüller’s idea.
In the movie, Sandra’s character sings the song while bidding farewell to her team. In an interview with Rotten Tomatoes, the German actress, who was Oscar-nominated for her role in 2023’s Anatomy of a Fall, explains, “It came from a playlist [of] goodbye songs. So I was looking for something that was, like, a final goodbye to someone — that was the first thing.”
“And then, it was a coincidence, actually, that it was also about space, and going to the sky and all these things,” she adds. “And then I thought, ‘Wow, I didn’t know.’ I know that song, but I never made this connection in my head. … And also, when you sing it, it’s very moving, especially in the last part, where it goes, like, really big.”
“I realized in that moment when I listened to it, like, really, really closely, that it could be for us,” she continues.
She also shared with EWthat she ran the idea by her daughter: “I asked my daughter if it’s actually cool or if it’s just me who finds it cool at almost 48 [years old]. And she approved.”
In the song, Harry sings, “You can’t bribe the door on your way to the sky” and “Just stop your crying, have the time of your life/ breaking through the atmosphere.” In 2017, he told Rolling Stone that the song is written from the point of view of a mother who is dying while giving birth.

Don Cheadle has joined the team for the docuseries Vs. Goliath. Deadline reports he’s been tapped to executive produce the show with nonprofit The Solutions Project, which promotes climate justice.
The series, according to Deadline, “explores stories of everyday people from working-class communities across the U.S. taking bold action against the fossil fuel industry.”
“The climate crisis is not just about science,” Cheadle said in a statement. “It’s about justice, courage, and the people rising up to do what’s needed. Vs. Goliath spotlights communities that are being directly hurt by fossil fuel pollution, and refuse to be invisible. The series makes these communities the heroes of the battle, and stays loyal to participant-driven storytelling. I’m honored to help amplify those voices.”
“We created Vs. Goliath to spotlight the heroes of the environmental justice movement – everyday people standing up to enormous odds,” the production team added. “Having Don Cheadle join us as executive producer, with the incredible support of The Solutions Project, not only validates the urgency of this work, but also brings powerful visibility to the people and stories featured in the series.”

The Black Crowes have released a lot of music over their almost 40-year career, but frontman Chris Robinson believes their iconic ballad “She Talks To Angels” is the one song of theirs that will stand the test of time.
In a new interview with New YorkMagazine’s Vulture column, Robinson says one reason is because “[t]hat’s the song really in people’s imagination,” adding it’s a “very inviting song.”
“I wrote that song from a dark romantic perspective as a kid who was yet to really be in the world that much,” he says, adding that when he wrote it he hadn’t yet experienced some of themes the song deals with, like addiction.
“The reason I say that song might resonate longer than any other is because I meet people all the time who say ‘She Talks to Angels’ means so much to them — whether they knew someone like that or have been through something similar personally,” Robinson says. “People share their stories with me about the song a lot, and I always find it to be really poignant and touching.”
“If you’re a songwriter, that’s what you’re shooting for, that soulful connection. It has to exist on some other levels besides just having a nice melody,” he adds. “I mean, when we play the song, we’ll still see people crying. To me, that’s what the song is for.”
“She Talks To Angels” appears on The Black Crowes’ debut album, Shake Your Money Maker, which was released in 1990.
The Black Crowes just released their 10th studio album, A Pound of Feathers. They launch a U.S. tour May 17 in Austin, Texas. A complete list of dates can be found at TheBlackCrowes.com.

Fly the W once more: Weezer is teasing new music.
Rivers Cuomo and company have shared a video on Instagram showing four different symbols drawn on a piece of paper. The clip begins with the famous “Buddy Holly” guitar lick before transitioning into what sounds like a new song in which Cuomo sings, “Shine again.”
You may recall a Weezer post published in February that promised, “Weezer will shine again soon.”
The video ends with Thursday’s date, March 26, appearing on the screen. In its caption, Weezer simply writes, “JOIN US!” along with a link to the band’s website.
Weezer last put out an album in 2021, when they released two records: OK Human and Van Weezer. They also put out four EPs in 2022 as part of their SZNZ project.
While we wait for possibly new Weezer, a past Weezer song is currently having a resurgence. “Go Away,” which originally appeared on the 2015 album Everything Will Be Alright in the End, has entered the Billboard Alternative Airplay chart amid going viral on TikTok.
Justin Timberlake’s 2024 mug shot (Sag Harbor Village Police Department)
Body camera footage has been released from the night Justin Timberlake was arrested in the Hamptons in June 2024 after police suspected the pop singer of driving while intoxicated.
The Sag Harbor Police Department released the video to media outlets, including the Associated Press, which released excerpts.
The video reviewed by ABC News shows an officer stopping Justin on the night of June 18, 2024, after the officer said he saw him veering off to the left and not stopping at a stop sign.
The singer, who identified himself during the stop, told officers he was in the area briefly while on tour. “I’m on a world tour,” he says, later adding, “I’m Justin Timberlake.”
The officer asks to see his ID.
Police then conduct a series of standardized field sobriety tests and, later, ask to administer a breath test. Justin refuses to take the breath test, the video shows.
The body camera footage also captures a woman, identified as a friend of Timberlake’s, pleading with officers not to take him into custody.
“Stop it! No way! Don’t say it!” she says as officers place Timberlake in handcuffs. “You can’t, like, put him in jail,” she says, asking if, instead, she can take him home.
Police decline her requests, stating that Timberlake would be held and processed.
At one point, she references Timberlake’s music while appealing to officers, saying, “You love ‘Bye Bye Bye,’ you’re on ‘SexyBack’ — one favor” and then asking officers if she can ask Justin if he wants his phone.
The footage ends with Timberlake seated in a police vehicle.
The singer pleaded not guilty to charges stemming from the arrest before reaching a plea deal to resolve the case in September 2024. He pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of driving while impaired. He was ordered to pay a fine and perform community service.
As previously reported, earlier this month, Justin sued to stop the release of video footage capturing his arrest, claiming the videos showed him in “an acutely vulnerable state.” The Village of Sag Harbor and Jusitn’s lawyers later reached an agreement to release a redacted version.

Amanda Peet is opening up about her breast cancer diagnosis, which she learned of around the same time both of her parents were in hospice care.
In a personal essay published Saturday in The New Yorker, the actress detailed the difficult period, sharing that she had long been monitored closely due to having “dense” and “busy” breasts, which require extra screening.
“I had been seeing a breast surgeon every six months for checkups,” she wrote.
After a routine scan in late August showed an unusual ultrasound result, Peet said her doctor performed a biopsy that detected a tumor, which “appeared” small but required an MRI to determine “the extent of the disease.”
As she began planning the next steps in her treatment, Peet said her parents — who were “long divorced” and lived on “opposite coasts” — both entered hospice care. Her father died suddenly before she was able to reach him.
“Our mother’s had started in June, but our father’s was only a week in, so we hadn’t expected him to go first,” she wrote. “I flew to New York. I didn’t make it before my father took his last breath, but I got to see his body before it was taken from his apartment.”
Peet, who is married to David Benioff and shares three children with him, said that upon returning to Los Angeles, she learned her stage 1 cancer was “hormone-receptor-positive” and “HER2-negative,” news that briefly made her feel “happier than I’d been pre-diagnosis, when I was just a regular person who didn’t have cancer.”
“But after about 10 minutes, I remembered that I still needed the MRI and regressed to baseline terror,” she wrote, explaining that her doctor told her the radiologist would also examine her lymph nodes and “the left side for any surprise findings,” with results expected within a week.
“It was dawning on me that cancer diagnoses come in a slow drip,” she wrote.
Doctors later found another mass in her breast that was determined to be benign, and she said her treatment would include a lumpectomy and radiation.
Concluding her essay, Peet shared tender moments of a bittersweet farewell with her mother, who had battled Parkinson’s disease, recalling the final moments they shared together.
“The morphine was taking forever to kick in, and she was looking at the ceiling and whimpering, so I climbed onto her rented hospital bed to get in her line of vision,” she wrote. “We locked eyes and she quieted down, and then she and I continued to stare at each other for what felt like several minutes.”
She added, “I wasn’t sure whether my mom knew that she was looking at me or whether I was just a constellation of interesting, disembodied shapes. I said ‘howdy doodle’ — that’s how she often greeted me. But then I realized that she was communing without words, and I followed suit. Time was running out, and, besides, I had already told her everything.”

(ORLANDO, Fla.) — President Donald Trump said Sunday that he’s sending Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to U.S. airports to assist Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers amid the ongoing Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown.
“On Monday, ICE will be going to airports to help our wonderful TSA Agents who have stayed on the job despite the fact that the Radical Left Democrats, who are only focused on protecting hard line criminals who have entered our Country illegally, are endangering the USA by holding back the money that was long ago agreed to with signed and sealed contracts, and all,” Trump said in a post on his social media platform.
On Saturday, the president said he was ready to deploy ICE agents if Democrats didn’t “immediately sign an agreement” to end the shutdown.
Trump said that operations would include immigration enforcement. It’s not currently clear what security roles, exactly, ICE agents will take on in airports.
The White House referred ABC News back to the president’s post when asked what capacity Americans can expect to see ICE operating in at airports.
Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, said Sunday that he was working with acting ICE Administrator Todd Lyons on plans that would “free up TSA agents for specialized tasks, like passenger and bag screening” and hopes to have final details together by the end of the day.
“We’re simply there to help TSA do their job in areas that don’t need their specialized expertise, such as, you know, screening through the x-ray machine, not trained on that, we won’t do that,” Homan told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “But there are roles we can play to release TSA officers from the non significant role, such as guarding an exit, so they can get back to the scanning machines and move people quicker.”
Trump’s statements come after Democrats on Friday blocked legislation to reopen DHS for the fifth time since the partial shutdown began in mid-February.
Democrats have demanded changes to policy surrounding ICE and Customs and Border Protection in exchange for votes to fund all of the department. Republicans, meanwhile, have rejected Democratic efforts to fund other agencies in DHS like the Coast Guard, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
Thousands of TSA employees have now missed their first full paychecks, and travelers are facing long lines at airports around the country.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries blasted the plan to send ICE agents to airports.
“The last thing that the American people need are for untrained ICE agents to be deployed at airports all across the country, potentially to brutalize or, in some instances, kill them,” Jeffries told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We’ve already seen how ICE conducts itself. These are untrained individuals when it comes to doing the current job that they have for the most part, let alone deploying them in close exposure in highly sensitive situations at airports across the country.”
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy on Sunday appeared to suggest that ICE agents would do more than Homan outlined, saying that ICE could be used to support airport screening.
“They run those same type of security machines at the southern border, right? Packages come through or people come through. They run similar assets,” Duffy said on ABC News’ “This Week,” adding that “even administratively they’ll be helpful.”
“But again, we have ICE agents who are trained and can provide assistance to agents,” Duffy said.
On Saturday, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., also urged Democrats to agree to a funding deal.
“At some point, the Democrats are going to have to take yes for an answer. I know they think this is politically good for them. It is not,” Thune said.
A bipartisan group of lawmakers has met behind closed doors with Homan throughout the week. The latest meeting concluded late Friday night.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, in speech on the Senate floor on Saturday, urged Republicans to support a Democratic effort to fund TSA while other negotiations continue.
“It is unacceptable for workers and travelers and entire airports to get taken hostage in political games, but that’s what the Republicans are doing,” Schumer, D-N.Y., said.
“It is unacceptable to say we will only pay TSA workers if it is attached to a bill that funds ICE with no reforms, but that’s what the Republicans have been doing. Democrats want to pay TSA workers ASAP, with no strings attached,” Schumer added.
