Keith Urban expressed his admiration for Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande.

The country singer described the Fortnight crooner as “extraordinary” and also revealed his “obsession” with the 7 Rings songstress.

While conversing with PEOPLE, Urban said, “I mean, God, Taylor's songwriting, it's so extraordinary. There's really no adjectives for it.”

He added, “She's such a great, great writer. So this new album is just more proof of that in really great ways.”

Urban also shared he indulged in Ariana Grande's latest single, We Can't Be Friends, likening it to a drug, while he has been listening to Swift's newest creation, The Tortured Poets Department.

“I don't know what is going on with that song, but I cannot stop playing it. It's like audible heroin. Literally, I have to have another hit,” he said.

The Fighter crooner added, “I play that thing over and over and over.”

Urban shared his affection for the Everyday songstress, “I've always liked Ariana anyway," adding, "She doesn't sound like anyone. It's like Taylor. I like singers that you know their voice immediately, and there’s a lot of other singers that sound like them, but they don't sound like anyone."

He continued, "Ariana has always had that unique vocal gift. On top of that, she's a phenomenal writer and producer. So it was easy for me to stumble upon that new album. I was interested in it before it came out.”

Urban said about Grande’s song, which was released in March, has “some real celestial magic,” adding, “That's my absolute current obsession song right now.”

To note, Keith Urban released his new song Go Home W U featuring Lainey Wilson last Friday.
