Blake Shelton is gearing up to release the deluxe edition of Body Language later this month and the project will feature four-new tracks, including the song that the country superstar wrote his wife Gwen Stefani as wedding vows. Co-written by Shelton alongside Craig Wiseman, the aforementioned track, "We Can Reach The Stars," will appear as the final track on the deluxe version of the album. The emotional tune was first heard by the guests of Shelton and Stefani's wedding, as the country hitmaker brought everyone, including himself and his wife, to tears with the debut of the song, according to the wedding's officiant, Carson Daly.

The country superstar co-penned the heartwarming track as his wedding vows, and reportedly sang the song to Stefani during their intimate wedding ceremony on July 3 in Oklahoma, in front of the hitmakers closest family and friends.
While the final product created quite a positive stir among country music fans, Shelton confessed that it was a challenging project to take on.
"It's just like pulling teeth for me and something she's always on my case about. So, I started writing this song, and I can only get so far with it, cause I didn't want it to just be something for that moment.
When the two got to work, Shelton was open and transparent about his primary goal. "I wanted something broad, and also specific to Gwen. So, that's what I did," he adds.
During the conversational interview, the beloved country star confirmed that he previously recorded "Reach The Star" in a studio in Nashville.
Radio host, Storme Warren sparked an interesting dialogue about the hard decision on whether or not to keep the song private or to release the potential top-charting hit to the public. Shelton quickly responded with a confident answer.
"I think it's something I want to share because I'm really proud of it.
Arriving on December 3, the deluxe edition of Body Language will feature four new tracks in addition to the album's original 12-songs, including duets with HARDY and Brooks & Dunn.
Body Language has already yielded Platinum-certified No. 1 smash "Happy Anywhere" with Stefani. The deluxe edition also features his brand-new single "Come Back As A Country Boy," which is available now, listen below.
