Miranda Lambert just reminded the country world why she’s a force you can’t ignore.
At Morgan Wallen’s I’m The Problem Tour stop in Miami on July 11, the crowd expected Wallen’s usual rowdy setlist. What they didn’t expect was Lambert stepping into the spotlight with a guitar in hand, dressed in her fringed tee, denim mini skirt, and white cowboy hat — and rewriting one of Wallen’s biggest ballads, “Thought You Should Know.”
Originally written as Wallen’s tribute to his mom, Lambert co-wrote the song with Wallen and Nicolle Galyon in 2021. But this night, she subtly flipped a lyric from “You’ve been losing sleep since ’93” to “’83” — the year she was born — instantly making the song her own. Fans erupted, calling the performance “a blessing,” and social media exploded with demands for a studio version.
The magic of the moment wasn’t just in the tweak. It was Lambert reclaiming a song she helped create, reminding everyone that behind the stadium anthems and fireball-soaked party hits, she’s still one of country’s most powerful storytellers. Her stripped-down, emotional delivery stood in stark contrast to Wallen’s high-octane tour vibe, and the crowd felt every word.
“She wasn’t trying to outshine Morgan,” one fan wrote. “But she owned it.”
For now, there’s no confirmation if Lambert will officially record her version, but one thing’s clear: she turned an already beloved hit into something deeply personal. Wallen may have sung it for his mama, but Lambert gave it a new soul — and her fans are calling it nothing short of unforgettable.
