Just when we thought the final chapter had closed on Florida Georgia Line, the duo adds an epilogue with “Life,” an unreleased song. The song is on their upcoming 18-track Greatest Hits record. “Life” is one of three songs on the new set of tunes that has never been released, along with “Invisible” and “Rendezvous,” which features Lele Pons.
Although there is new music from FGL, both Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley remain firm in their decision to leave their joint careers behind, in favor of each of them creating their own music. FGL performed their final show together in August, which officially marked the end of an era for them and their fans.
“I just want to take a second because I don’t want this moment to get lost tonight,” Hubbard said from the stage (via Country Now). “I want to express our gratitude, from BK and myself, from the bottom of our heart, for the last 12 years of our life that you guys have allowed us to do what we love. You’ve enabled us to chase this crazy dream of writing songs and playing shows and hoping somebody will show up to listen, so thank you guys. It really, really means the world to us.”
While a reunion someday certainly isn’t out of the question, Hubbard says for now they need to focus just on their own music.
“That was a question that we talked about prior, actually, because at the beginning he really wanted to do both,” Hubbard said. “And I thought about it and slept on it. We talked to life coaches. It wasn’t just an overnight decision, but I came to the conclusion that for me, whatever it was that I was doing, I wanted to give it 100 percent. And I felt like it was only fair for BK. to give himself 100 percent if he was going to do this, step out and do the solo thing.”
“Life” is currently available here. Greatest Hits will be available on vinyl at Target on October 28 (here), digitally on November 9, and as a CD on November 11. Preorder is available here.
