I really enjoyed his performance on Idol last night! He sounded and looked fantastic. I'm totally now on board with loving this song after seeing him perform it live!
The first song I ever heard of Keith's had banjo in it and that's what attracted me to his music. Somebody Like You! When I hear that song and the banjo cranked up, it just makes me happy! When my Granddaughter was 3, SLY was the only song we could play when she was in the car! She would sing her little heart out with that song!

How many singles do you think this album will have? Especially since THREE will have peaked by the time the album comes out? well, "Wasted Time" will still be lingering in the top 10 probably, but it will be almost 6-7 weeks old.

Somebody Like You was the first Keith song I've ever heard as well!! Gosh, so many years ago... lol I'm thinking there will be a bunch of singles off of this album considering the situation. It'll be interesting to see what they do. At this rate though and seeing Keith usually takes a long time to put albums out, he's gonna have to get right back in the studio after Ripcord is released

I would expect 6 or 7 as well, considering single #3 will be approaching the top 15 (most likely) when the album comes out, and Keith is still an A-lister. I would say though, that if single 5 or 6 falters, there won't be a follow-up.

The song is now #11 on iTunes. I believe that is the highest it has been so far.
Break On Me is #72 and John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16 is #88.

"Wasted Time" is the most added song on Mediabase this week with at least 127 adds.

After his ACM performance, WT was #2 on ITunes, but I think it's around 5 right now. Unfortunately, I imagine 2 is probably as high as it will go.

She's talking about country specifically, not all genre.

I don't understand how it hasn't hit #1. Sure, he's an "older artist" as far as digital sales/iTunes go (yadda yadda), but definitely frustrating! Awesome that it debuted within the top 30 though. I saw in my email from Country Aircheck that said #1 media base most added and "biggest impact of his career" with 137 stations on board the first week. That however, is nothing to complain about!

Country songs rarely make the top 10 on iTunes. It got to #11 I Beieve which is incredible. Plus he is performing it tonight on the idol finale

It hasn't hit #1 because when it comes to what people are in general talking about "Humble and Kind" and Chris Stapleton. So the whole older artist thing doesn't exactly work when Tim McGraw is ruling it on iTunes, This song will definitely be a huge smash hit. But at this point I just want to hear how pop Keith Urban got on this album because none of the three songs released so far seem to bare much resemblance of Keith Urban the last couple of album eras. But I must be crazy since I don't like this song since it doesn't sound very country or good to me.

From the hints Keith has given, I'm making a wild guess that he is singing "Stop Dragging My Heart Around" with Carrie Underwood tonight. He said it was someone who he toured with years ago and it was a song that sang together then.
I remember them performing that song and it was so good! Hope I've guessed right!

I wonder when Keith will be releasing the video to WT! I know he has already filmed it, so anxiously waiting to see it. I'm loving this song more and more.

Country or not, this is a perfect summer song. Can't wait to hear it on the radio while cruising in the car with the windows down.

I have a friend who liked Keith as an Idol judge but was never into country music. After his Idol performance she said Wasted Time "sounds like summer". This song got stuck in my head pretty fast after just a couple listens. Absolutely love it!

GUYS. Attended the listening party here in Nashville last night and all i can say is HOT DAMN. Heard the album from start to finish... Lot of ballads, a lot of different sounds - the production doesn't really sound anything like Fuse, BUT it's definitely different for Keith. He's got a couple that are flat out jams, the duet with Carrie is SUPER catchy and surely will be released as a single, the duet with Pitbul isn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I'm not saying country radio lol but they definitely won't be releasing it as a single anyways. He did a stripped down acoustic version of it and the lyrics are amazing. Some of the songs lyric's on this album are crazy good and that is saying a lot because Keith's always had amazing lyrics. Anyways, I think it's absolutely outstanding, but it's very rare for me to not like something he records. And I'll be honest, it doesn't sound all that country, but NOT in a bad way... I was expecting worse. Trust me, the songs are AMAZING!!
Thinking that this single is my favorite off the album but that'll probably change by the week, come May 6th, lol

I'm just delighted that the release date is right around the corner for one of the format's beacons of consistency for some 15 years!!!!
The song is terrific, and multiple weeks at #1 would be downright wonderful.

If I had to pick singles 4,5,6 from the Ripcord project, The Fighter (Duet with Carrie) Blue ain't your color Boy Gets a Truck. Oddly, they're sequenced together on back half of album with "Break On Me."
