Blake Shelton’s upcoming song “Let Him in Anyway,” from his new album For Recreational Use Only, is already making waves for its emotional depth—so much so that it triggered a real-life health scare. Written by Hardy, Zach Abend, Kyle Clark, and Carson Wallace, the powerful ballad explores grief and the hope of a flawed loved one finding peace in Heaven. Shelton himself was deeply moved by the track, and so was his wife, Gwen Stefani, who cried through multiple listens before an event—prompting Blake to gently urge her to get it together. But the most intense reaction came from Chris Oglesby, Sr. VP of Creative at BMG, who had recently delivered a eulogy for his brother-in-law. After hearing the song, Oglesby became so overwhelmed that he later drove himself to Vanderbilt University Medical Center with what turned out to be a heart attack. He received four stents and is now in better health, crediting the emotional gravity of the song as the final tipping point. Label president Jon Loba joked with Shelton that they were nearly charged with murder, a testament to just how powerful—and potentially heart-wrenching—this song truly is.
