Carrie Underwood’s fourth single from Cry Pretty will be “Drinking Alone.” I jjust wanted to make the thread. I’ll make it pretty later. 😇

THE BILLBOARD #1 IS FINALLY HERS Really couldn't be more excited about this! The performance on 11/13 is going to be legendary! An iconic move by UMG! Praise them and their decision! I really hope we see (as much as possible) BHC-level crossover smash status, as this song as the capability for it. I also hope we see a 2021 Grammy win--Best Country Vocal Performance/Song, Song of the Year, Record of the Year, I'll take anything. By 2021 it will have been 7 years since her last award for SITW.

All right, interesting move by He Who Shall Not Be Named. It'll be a good seller and juice album sales, especially going into the awards show performance and likely Female Vocalist win. Let's see where this goes. Alpha plays the long game. They could go five-deep this era.

Second correct single choice in a row! Let’s hope “Drinking Alone” has a similar chart run to “Southbound” (but all the way to #1 this time please).

Hallelujah!!! This is the perfect choice as the next single, it’ll be a huge hit. Hopefully she gets that BB #1 with this one!

This is sultry, alluring, and truly unlike anything Carrie has released in her 14-year radio career. This is a GROWN WOMAN song, y’all.

YAS! The correct choice! I'm ecstatic for this one to be a radio hit, and definitely rooting for this one to get her back to the top on BB. Really excited to see what she does for the CMA Awards performance of this, too. I hope they channel the same cabaret vibe on the show that she does with it on the tour because it's one of the best moments of the Cry Pretty Tour 360 by far. Fingers crossed that they go all out for the music video too because this song just lends itself so well to something epic and we haven't gotten a truly epic video from her since the Greatest Hits era.

That is definitely one of the strongest cuts from the album. Southbound is definitely good and I get why it was a single. But Drinking Alone is on another level, so I look forward to this!

This was the only correct choice of what was remaining. I hope this song reignites the era when it reaches the mainstream audience that kind have slept on her since album release. This can potentially be a huge hit if all the cards are played right (meaning that they dedicate more than $5 and a iPhone 10 recording device to the music video production).

Hope this one lives up to its potential! Then we may have a shot of single #5.
Also, please please PLEASE, give us the first great music video of this album era!

Best song on the album. So glad that she's likely ending the Cry Pretty era strong.

I liked "Southbound" more, but I like this one more than the first two singles.

Hopefully it gets sent to radio monday and impacts nov 4th. I have a feeling she wants to avoid impacting the same day as runaway june, who impacts with head over heels this coming monday 😊

I haven't been this excited for a single in years! Probably since Blown Away.
This song isn't even my personal Top 3 on the album, but it has smash potential written all over it. I just want Carrie to finally have a career smash that is co-written and co-produced by her!
She has grown SO MUCH as a songwriter, just wish people will take notice of it more, instead of labelling her as just a great singer. The best tracks on this album are co-written by Carrie!

I do hope there is a radio edit to shorten the length of this song just a little because this song clocks in at 4 minutes and 20 seconds which is pretty long for a radio single (most radio singles clock in from 3 to 3 and a half minutes it seems like).

I can hear a chopping of some of the beginning and some of the ending, and an edit that makes the last chorus shorter (as in: "to make me forget that he's gone/we should be drinking alone (that wailing run)."

I can hear a chopping of some of the beginning and some of the ending, and an edit that makes the last chorus shorter (as in: "to make me forget that he's gone/we should be drinking alone (that wailing run)."As long as the bridge remains untouched. I feel those three lines are great!

But but the dobro at the very end is my favorite part lol

I’d rather chop out part of the beginning and the end then lose that wail.
