 Artist: RaeLynn Single: "Love Triangle" Writers: RaeLynn, Nicolle Galyon, and Jimmy Robbins Label: Warner Bros. Records/Warner Music Nashville/WMN Promotion Release Date: July 11 Impact Date: August 1 Source: The Tennessean
RaeLynn competed on season 2 of The Voice. She was on Blake Shelton's team and made it as far as the quarterfinals, after which she signed with BMLG's Valory imprint. She released 2 singles for the label, "God Made Girls" and "For A Boy", and an EP titled Me. "God Made Girls" was selected for iHeartRadio's On The Verge program in 2014; it went on to peak at #16 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart and #7 on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart. "For A Boy" was released in March 2015 and peaked at #58 on Billboard Country Airplay. RaeLynn quietly parted ways with BMLG earlier this year. RaeLynn signed with Warner Music Nashville this week, and multiple outlets are reporting that "Love Triangle" will be her first single for the label. |

All i can say is - finally!!!!!
Glad she signed with a label who isnt afraid to let her show her true self.
All that bmlg crap driven by Scotty B and his ilk never really let her shine.

Wow, this is great. She finally doesn't sound like a chipmunk, and she's not being horribly misogynistic.

She probably has the worst-sounding voice I have ever heard in my life. I feel like I'll hate everything she does because of that.

For me a unique voice is a welcomed change of pace. For example I like Tucker Bethard and his voice. Its just my opinion, and I respect your opinion, but I think if you give her and her voice a chance it could grow on you. I could be wrong though. |

MR Upset about Maddie and Tae's "slow stall" too? That label let her develop instead of dropping a project willie nilly. That makes sense to me. Sometimes stuff just doesn't work. |

I've been familiar with her voice for years now, but it has yet to grow on me. Its her tone and delivery. Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me. It does just go back to personal preference, and I tried to word my original post in a way that didn't make it sound like my distaste for her voice translated to me saying that she isn't talented. |

YES!!while her voice is not my favourite thing I really like this song, and I hope radio gives her a chance with this.

Songwriters are RaeLynn, Nicolle Galyon and Jimmy Robbins (who I'm guessing will produce the record).
I understand why some people have a hard time listening to her but I really enjoy her voice, her twang reminds me of Kellie Pickler and even Dolly sometimes. But it's not and "easy" voice to listen to, so it's really polarizing.
But I think she came a long way vocally and has really improved. And I love her personality, so I really wish her the best. Let's see how everything unfolds. (It seems I finish every post trying to be positive about female singers' future. It's time I'm right.)

This is an incredible song (going off the live performances I've seen and what I assume is just the unfinished demo[?] in the first post), and I am so, so excited that RaeLynn is at a new label home and the song I've been waiting for a studio version of for almost 2 years is going to not only be out soon, but it'll be her new single. Mind blown at how awesome this news is for me. I've been looking forward to this for quite some time and I couldn't be more excited. I hope this one does well and I can *finally* get my hands on that debut album I've been dying to see released!

There's a few live performances of Love Triangle on YouTube. Here's slightly higher quality version of one. |

I have had this song from an EP that was given to us media types back before her EP (it was the only one not on the EP when that came out). It's currently on my country radio playlist on my iPod. Sounds fantastic on that.

Man, I can't wait for this! Glad to see that it's coming out next month! Definitely one of my most anticipated releases of the year so far, for sure.  |

This song is so real and realistic. I personally think the production is perfect.
If radio will play this, and that is a big IF, this could be the song that finally gives us a RaeLynn album.

How do you go from a piece of crap like "God Made Girls" to an exceptional, detailed, relatable ballad like this? It's like Warner turned her into a completely different artist. This is almost as dramatic a transformation as Kellie Pickler after she had all the "dumb blonde" sucked out of her.

This is one of those cases where in the hands of a better vocalist I'd probably like it a lot. As it is, I like it a little as a whole towards this. I think the production is really good (and country) and the lyrics are very well written. However, Raelynn applies just way too much twang for me to enjoy completely (also the way she pronoun Triangle makes me cringe).
But, I will say that this is a lot better than her first single, which I hated, for blatant sexism and the followup was just way too overproduced.

I love love love this! Oh I hope this hits and hits hard! She's already shown she can sell really well so now that she has a song that shouldn't be polarizing I think she has a much better chance to break out.
I wonder why Valory didn't think this was a hit?

What is this song about? I can't make out all the words, but I enjoy it. Far and away her best single released.
