Very interested in see how this song does. Definitely been a semi decent hit without going to country radio (over 8 million views on YouTube and toppped Sirius XM Top 30 I think).

Woooo, I’ve heard this on The Highway. Very strong single for Gabby. I would not be surprised to see this catch fire.

I can’t wait to see this go in front of a entire new audience. It did so well without free radio. She is releasing another song called the good ones Friday If you want to check it out. It has four adds already.

Cautiously optimistic because she's a female and we know how that goes but this song totally sounds like a smash. It's been doing really well without terrestrial radio.

Happy to finally see a thread for this song. This song has been selling like crazy and was #3 on iTunes at one point, not to mention strong streams, YouTube views, and it's catchy as heck. It has the recipe for a big hit and Gabby just exudes confidence. I would love to see radio throw her a bone and take this up the chart like they did with Kelsea way back.

Does anyone know how long she has been on her radio tour? I'm assuming she has had one, right?

Glad this is getting a push, it’s a really great song and deserves a chance. I don’t care for this girl’s voice, but I hope this can do something for her because it’s really, really good.

“I Hope” this is a huge hit. I love the song and the vibe. I think she sounds great on it.

I feel like Gabby has more star potential and hype coming off of Idol (even a whole year later) than anyone since Scotty and Lauren's season. I am excited and nervous for this chart run!

The song itself is surprisingly not bad! Personally, I find her vocals a bit grating, particularly in the second verse; too nasally and unsupported for my taste. We’ll see how this fares at radio.

It's crazy to see Gabby doing so well. She went to my school's rival school, but she performed for us back in middle school.

That is what is so great about the music industry. You never know when someone will be the next big artist and you can say you saw them when....

Gabby has been named radio Disney’s next big thing. She is going to get some nice promotion out of it.

I liked her on AI last year, i think maybe a tad overhyped(getting a CU jr label) but in general i enjoyed her run. For this song though i totally agree with you! I want to like this, but her voice just grates at me on this. I have tried but i just can't get into it, unfortunately. Hopefully i'll like her next song better🤷♂️

I think they might be looking at it as a single in the future because she is shooting a video for it.

Another early add last week bringing her to three stations before the add date. Looks good, excited for tomorrow. Huge add date including Morgan Wallen and Eli Young Band who are both coming off #1s, so I imagine this will rake in the third most adds though I could see Gabby possibly passing Eli Young Band for 2nd.

She has 6 on mediabase. I can’t wait until this afternoon to see how many she gets.

This got 23 adds today. Morgan Wallen was number one with 36. I think it is a good and respectable start for this.

Low adds across the board, including Wallen and especially Eli Young Band (20). 29 total stations looks good, but certainly not as many as I had anticipated. I wonder if the huge add date caused all the songs to take a hit.

Outdoing Eli Young Band on adds date strikes me as fairly promising, even with not the greatest numbers. I knew Morgan Wallen would do the best since he's continuing to build hype with each of his releases. Excited to see how this one does, because I can see it being something that will get the attention of possibly some bigger stations to get it off to a slightly quicker start. She seems to have at least a fair amount of buzz around her.

Not for this single, but she put out a music video today for "The Good Ones":

The Highway has been playing The Good Ones - I like her vocals so much more on that one, even though I Hope is a total earworm.

Noticed this song is creeping up on charting. It was second up on New & Active this week. Not moving as fast as I had expected... I hope this doesn’t pull a “Next Boyfriend” where there was all this initial hype and then no real breakthrough.

I'm surprised there is no much talk about this here since it's a song by a woman. Either way, this appeared to be top 50 now. Since it's still one of my favorite songs of the year, I hope it becomes a big hit next year.
