"When we wrapped the show, we had dinner one night in Nicole and Keith's house in Sydney," Evans recalled in a statement. "After dinner, Nicole was like: 'Right, you're singing, Keith's gonna play the piano. He'll play anything, just tell him the song.' "

"So everybody came around the grand piano in their living room and I sang Adele's 'Make You Feel My Love,' " he continued. "I knew that Nicole loved to sing, so she was joining in."

When it came time to record "Say Something," Evans said he "knew that it would fit Nicole's voice very well" and they could "blend" their voices together. Urban also approved, and Kidman recorded her part in her husband's Nashville studio.

"She was so grateful that I'd asked her. I was, like, 'grateful? You have no idea how grateful I am!'" the "Beauty and the Beast" actor added, saying their collaboration was "really special."
