"Ain't No Love in Oklahoma" is a song recorded by American country music singer Luke Combs. It was released on May 20, 2024, as the lead single from Twisters: The Album , the soundtrack album for the 2024 movie Twisters . [1] Combs co-wrote the song with Jessi Alexander and Jonathan Singleton, and co-produced it with Singleton and Chip Matthews.
Combs co-wrote the song with Jessi Alexander and Jonathan Singleton specifically for the film Twisters , [2] a present-day chapter of the 1996 film Twister . [3] Described as a "country-rocker", the lyrics describe both the dangers of storm chasing and the thrill of the chase. [4] In an interview with Audacy, Inc., Combs said that "this song is about everything that I think this movie is about. High-energy, high-octane, I think the song really musically matches that vibe. It's really sort of abstract, lyrically speaking, I think that was done intentionally. We were really just trying to sonically match the vibe that they were looking for with this film." [5]
The music video for "Ain't No Love in Oklahoma" was directed by Alex Bittan and premiered on May 16, 2024. [6] The video features footage from Twisters interspersed with stormy performance footage of Combs singing the song. [2] The video also features a cameo from NASCAR driver John Hunter Nemechek. [7]
"Ain't No Love in Oklahoma" debuted at number 24 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart week dated May 25, 2024. [8] It reached number one in September 2024, giving Combs his 18th number one hit on the chart. [9]
