Interesting facts and trivia about When Someone Stops Loving You. By Songfacts®.

This mournful acoustic guitar-based waltz is about the shattering pain resulting from a love gone wrong. However, instead of focusing on the heartbreak the song talks about how the world is still spinning, while you are struggling to get through the day. When someone stops loving you It don't make the evening news It don't keep the sun from rising, clock from winding, heart from beating Even when you want it to When someone stops loving you Despite the fact that everything seems to stop for the person experiencing the end of a relationship, everyone else is carrying on just like nothing has changed.

Jimi Westbrook takes the lead vocal, one of three The Breaker tracks where he is the main singer. The others are "Night on Our Side" and "Rollin.'"

The song was written by Hillary Lindsey, Lori McKenna and Chase McGill, two-thirds of the writing team that created Little Big Town's smash hit "Girl Crush." "We love the song," Karen Fairchild told reporters. "It was [recorded] probably towards the last third of the record that we made with Jay Joyce. We do like a good 6/8 country ballad. It's nice to hear Jimi step out there, and it's such a beautiful lyric."
