This one has had such an odd chart run. It had a strong debut at #50 after racking up an impressive amount of adds out the gate, but then it's literally spent the last 4 months bouncing around in the 50s not moving up. I hope that it's finally starting to gain some ground and will at least reach the top 40 for her. Crazy if this is done that it could debut at #50 and then spend 6 months on the charts and yet only come away with a peak of... #48. Yikes. At least it made the tp 10 for her in Canada, which is better than nothing, but yeah, this chart run is a huge disappointment. I see the duet with Brantley Gilbert has seemed to have no effect on her ability to get another solo hit, which is sadly not surprising.

I think she could have another hit in her due to her amazing talent on guitar, beautiful looks, and decent voice but this wasn't really a song I would have used as a radio single. It was a little slow and kinda drags on.

It was a little slow and kinda drags on. I agree. I happen to really like it but it does not strike me as a radio single. I will say, out of all her single choices, "By the Way" and "Criminal" are the only two out of nine that I think were radio ready... She has certainly been given her fair share of unfair treatment (woman, dated Bobby Bones, etc). I don't think she is running out of steam by any means, though. Send a new single.

Well, hopefully the fact that she continues to do so well in Canada means she won't be quietly dropped from her label in the middle of the night for having so many flops on American country radio... Honestly, I think it would be a great idea at this point for them to ditch us and just focus on making her a huge superstar in Canada! They clearly appreciate her like she deserves!

Well she's doing well up there regardless, so I don't think she has anything to gain by them just giving up on her in the states and only focusing on Canadian charts, especially since the impact of a hit single up there is like maybe 1/5th the size of getting one in the U.S. But yeah, the fact that she's been doing well in Canada makes me feel a little more optimistic that she doesn't just get dropped and disappear completely.
