Carly just uploaded a studio session of It Won't Always Be Like This right at midnight. She looks INCREDIBLE here! I have no idea what the rest of the album sounds like yet, but I'm already like so desperately wanting this one to be her next single at radio. I need this to be a smash and get a nice music video. So, so good.

I am so happy this song is connecting. I absolutely loved her first album, and she is an AMAZING live performer. "Closer To You" has grown on me, but it definitely was not lead single material, and I'm so happy that it appears to have just been a small blip in her career.

Closer To You definitely had no business being a lead single. In fact, this current one would've been a much better choice. So glad it's connecting, and I hope it hits #1 as she deserves! Followed by a second consecutive #1 with It Won't Always Be Like This. .indulgecountry I agree that this song is tailor-made to be a multi-week, perhaps even award-winning, #1 smash. Hoping it's the third official single at radio.

From what I know, this song being recorded with Lee Brice and getting released all developed fairly quickly. It wasn't even in the RadioTraks survey BMLG sent out to radio this past August. It's not a shock that the label thought this song was the one to get Carly another top 10 hit because it stands out so much -- something "Closer to You" just didn't do (it really had no passion from sales and testing, which is why it stalled).
"Halfway Home" is a song on the album I really hope gets released as a single because it's one of the best songs I've heard in the format the past 2-3 years. "It Won't Always Be Like This" would also be a logical, agreeable choice.

This might be my favorite song charting right now (don’t worry, Lady A’s single is #2 lol). I’m elated that this continues to move up the chart rapidly and that country radio seems to genuinely like Carly Pearce. Just a few years ago a song like this wouldn’t have done so well because of how traditional it sounds, but country radio is finally embracing its past as we head into the 2020s. Here’s to a successful next decade for Carly! 🥂

Less than 3 months for this to fly past Closer To You's peak. I still love Closer To You, but it's great to see this one going up the charts so fast.

This is #22 on Mediabase already and it will easily be in the top 20 very soon as Blake/Trace tumble and former #1s go recurrent.

Although the Mediabase chart isn't official until next week, "I Hope You’re Happy Now" moved up four spots from last week to land at #21 on Mediabase. I would expect this song to be Top 20 in a few weeks once all the freefalling songs clear out especially on Mediabase ("Even Though I'm Leaving", "One Man Band", "Remember You Young")

Glad to see that Closer With You was just a hiccup and that this one is flying up the charts. Ecstatic that she's going to possibly hit Top 20! Can't wait to get the album on Valentine's Day

I'm really glad they made this song a duet. It almost feels more heartbreaking that way. I know we've seen two sides of a breakup before, but these two fit so well together. Carly's vocals shine on here much more than on Closer to You. I'm glad that Carly is gaining the traction in her career that she deserves.

"Call Me" is definitely not the best of the 4 songs that we've heard so far, but it's not the worst either imo. It's a cute bop and it's good for tiding us over while we wait for the album to be released.
Of the four pre-release songs it goes "It Won't Always Be Like This" > "I Hope You're Happy Now" > "Call Me" > "Closer To You" for me in terms of preference.

"Call Me" is fine enough. I do think I prefer "Closer To You" as it had a really catchy chorus. Honestly "Call Me" reminds me melodically of a diet version of "Hide The Wine" as a mid to uptempo song that is a bit jarring but also catchy. Still excited for the album and "I Hope You're Happy Now" continues to do very well on the chart as Carly Pearce is at #21 on both Billboard and Mediabase (taking only 12 weeks on Billboard to do so which is amazing) and this song looks like a total lock for at minimum a Top 10 peak.

"Call Me" is like a leftover from the recent Little Big Town since Phillip and Jimi Westbrook wrote this. Also heard some vibe from Train's Call Me Sir.
Alas, 4/4 for me so far ("Call Me is a grower yall). Can't wait for CP2!

"Call Me" is so bad and so was "Closer To You". This single is fine enough, but the real gem is "It Won't Always Be Like This." Wow. Stunner.

"I Hope You're Happy Now" officially becomes Carly's third Top 20 single nudging up a spot to #20 on Mediabase with a healthy bullet of 280 as well. Very excited for this song and hopeful this can hit #1 or at least be a Top 5 single.
Also Big Machine better go for "It Won't Always Be Like This" as the follow-up since that song has award show potential and could definitely connect on a wide scale.
