Earlier this week, Sugarland announced the release date of their album Bigger, out June 8.  The album is the first in over five years for Sugarland and includes one song co-written by Taylor Swift and Patrick Monahan from the band Train.

Swift approached the duo about writing the song, once she heard Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush were reuniting.

The song is called "Babe" and is rumored to be about a past Swift-relationship, but Nettles told Entertainment Tonight "she didn't ask" who.

Sugarland doesn't normally collaborate with other artists, which is why the group kept this news a secret for as long as possible.

"Babe" is the only song on Bigger not written by Sugarland.

The song released by Sugarland this week is called "Bigger," the title track to their new album.
