Jo Dee Messina covered Megan Moroneyâs breakout single during a recent show, and the Emo Cowgirl shared her reaction.
Messina played âTennessee Orangeâ when she took the stage in Moroneyâs hometown of Douglasville, Georgia, and shared a clip of her performance on TikTok and Instagram on Sunday (August 17). The âHeads Carolina, Tails Californiaâ icon caught Moroneyâs attention. She wrote in the comments that the cover was âamazing đ§Ąđ,â and shared Messinaâs rendition on her instagram story on Monday (August 18).
âI met somebody, and he's got blue eyes/ He opens the door, and he don't make me cry/ He ain't from where we're from, but he feels like home/ Yeah, he's got me doing things I've never done/ In Georgia, they'd call it a âsinâ/ Iâm wearing Tennessee orange for himâ
Moroney released her award-winning breakout single on her powerful debut studio album, Lucky, in 2023. Moroneyâs first record also included âIâm Not Pretty,â the title track, âGirl in the Mirrorâ and more. She followed it with her highly-anticipated sophomore project, Am I Okay?, last summer, and most recently, the reigning Country Music Association New Artist of the Year has delivered â6 Months Later.â Watch Messina's rendition of Moroney's breakout single here:
