"Misery" is a track from Gwen Stefani's upcoming third album This Is What the Truth Feels Like due out March 18 and it may be released as an instant grat in the following weeks if it's considered that it's one of the three songs where its length appears on the pre-order of the album. Also, it's mentioned in the header image from her Twitter account, as you could see below.

I'm pretty sure it will be the third single since it was a contender for single #2. This is my most anticipated song along with Askin 4 It (produced by Stargate).

3 for 3. These earworm choruses are killing me! I can't wait for next Friday. This might be my favorite of the 3. It kinda reminds me of Charli XCX. Based on what I have heard so far, this is my favorite solo album of hers.

It's nice, it reminds me a little bit of Lily Allen's Air Balloon & Charli XCX on the vocals. But MMLY is still my faved so far.

This is just okay. Definitely my least favorite of the 3 tracks released so far.

But they're not moving on already are they? MMLY deserves much better.

Confirmed as the next single off This Is What the Truth Feels Like. Gwen made the announcement that she's going to perform the track on The Voice this Tuesday.

Well that was an obvious single choice. I'm happy with it.

If this isn't received well after The Voice i hope they scrap it. I was hoping for Where Would I Be or Send Me A Picture :/

This is boring and I doubt it will do much (unless there's a viral moment). They should have worked "Truth" to Hot AC and AC hard. She's done at Pop radio.

I like this song a lot, but of the potential singles left on the album, it is definitely the safest. That worries me since UTLY and MMLY were also both safe and neither did as much as it should have. Now would have been the time to at least try "Where Would I Be?" or "Asking 4 It."
Love the idea of pushing a different single at HAC though. That could have worked for her.

I would have preferred "Send Me a Picture" or "Asking 4 It" over this. "Misery" is a good song but it's not that different from "Make Me Like You" so it would have been nice to see Gwen try with a different more fun summery sound. Unfortunately,it doesn't matter what is released as Radio won't take anything higher than top 20 because of her age. If the pop perfection of "Make Me Like You" couldn't break the top 20 then I don't see how "Misery" will even make top 30.

I like this song and I don't think it's a bad choice. I like most of the songs on there. I would have wanted "Where Would I Be" if I had to choose. I really like 8 songs on there including current singles.
There's not many songs on her cd that would be to much of a risque releasing. There probably going with a song that is most accessible to Hot Ac/PoP and then AC.

Although I prefer this to it, Make Me Love You was her best chance at getting a Pop hit off this album imo. They're just better off aiming for HAC traction from this project, that's really the format it's most suited for anyways.

In addition to the performance on The Voice tomorrow night, SNL is re-airing her episode this weekend (where she performed "Make Me Like You" and "Misery"). It's also rumored she pre-taped a performance of "Misery" on Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

Her performance on Stephen Colbert is airing this Friday 4/29 which will make it two televised performances of "Misery" (The Voice and now Stephen Colbert) without a radios add date. Not sure what they are doing with this single.....

Maybe they're abandoning pop radio since MMLY and UTLY were such uphill battles?
