Radio is sleeping on this one. It is doing well in callouts and sales and she is coming off three hits in a row. This should easily hit top 20 instead of struggling here. I am sure it will plug along though until it does hit top 15/20.
I may be biased because my evidence is purely anecdotal, but almost everyone I know who likes Meghan is older. Like, my mom and dad like her lol. I hear her being played in Zumba classes that are mostly soccer moms. I run a writing workshop with mostly older ladies and they all love her. I am sure a lot of young people like her, but I definitely don't think of her main fanbase as being just teenage girls.
I hope she does get a lot of nominations this year. She is talented and unique in the pop world and she will hopefully be rewarded for that.

I hear her being played in Zumba classes that are mostly soccer moms. My friend was at a class similar to that (but more specific on diets and weight loss) and she said one woman had AATB as her ringtone. I agree, I don't actually think her main demographic is teenage girls. It seems people just assume since she is female, young and makes catchy pop songs that it automatically is. I really hope this can reach top 10 on at least the Hot 100 with its sales. Streaming seems to be a bit weak, too, though. #91 on Spotify. I actually find it really catchy, I don't understand why radio (even HAC and AC) seem to be slow with this. At least it is still chugging along!

That just sounds stupid. She was nominated for her own song that she recorded last year. Then why wasn't nominated last year. Am I missing something???? Her debut album wasn't released until January of this year, which falls in the eligibility period. Only AATB (the single) was eligible for last year's Grammys. You can't get nominated for BNA until you've released your debut album, which is why Rachel Platten and Charlie Puth will not be considered for this year. When year did they change the rules and for who LoL? Because Clive Davis was fuming years ago because they didn't allow Whitney in the "BNA" category. I believe it was due because she guested on a Paul Jabara song in 1983/4 I believe and or because she did a duet with Teddy Pendegrass for his album called "Hold Me" which they included on her debut as well.

The rule was changed after Lady Gaga was deemed ineligible a few years back. "Just Dance" had been nominated the year prior, which kept her out of the Best New Artist race in what was clearly her breakout year.

I have gotten so many emails from her label about this song and its every progress. They really want this to be the ballad of the winter.
I'm not sure how the sales and airplay peaks will align for this, but either way it'll be a nice way to cap a successful debut rather than the non-event that was Dear Future Husband.

This is going top 10 on the Hot 100! Yeah, it seems so... eventually! Maybe her label actually WANT this song to take off slow so it peaks around Christmas.

Amazing performance! They are both very good live (although if I remember, the last time they performed they were even better)

I'm happy for her. I kinda lost interest in her after DFH, but I'm pleasantly surprised both singles after DFH have gotten decent peaks. She really is a dark horse. It's crazy that she's still releasing songs from the same album that AATB was on. Seems like ages ago. It's been a huge era for her, and for a debut artist in general. I think she's here to stay.

She is talented and unique in the pop world and she will hopefully be rewarded for that. I was at one of her concerts, and the audience was heavily comprised of girls who seemed to be in the 9-16 demographic (and their parents). Her whole "queen" gimmick is tailored to the same group (she usually invites a little kid up on stage to dance with her). I've read some reviews that shared a similar assessment of her audience, so this wasn't an anomaly.
