Content
"Between the Devil and Me" was written by Harley Allen and Carson Chamberlain, the same two songwriters who wrote the title track to Everything I Love. The song is a mid-tempo ballad in which the male narrator describes the sexual temptation of an extramarital affair,[1] by saying that "she's all I see / Between the devil and me."
Critical reception
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic said that although the song had "a bit of post-Garth bombast" and "touches on the anthemic sounds of modern country", it still had Jackson's "true country spin and heart."[2] Entertainment Weekly critic Alanna Nash also cited the song as a standout, saying that Jackson made the song "throb with anxiety."[1]
