The story behind the song

"Stupid Boy" was written by Dave Berg, Deanna Bryant, and Sarah Buxton. Sarah Buxton originally recorded the song before Keith Urban included his version on his 2006 album Love, Pain & the Whole Crazy Thing. Urban's then-wife, Nicole Kidman, suggested he record the song. He noted that the song's subject matter contrasted with the album's first single, "Once in a Lifetime." The song is described as a ballad about men foolishly breaking the hearts of women they love.
