Honestly, I’m not very surprised this isn’t doing anything. When this first came out, I thought it was great and a fun way to introduce her solo career with the nostalgia of her biggest hit, but with how heavily this samples the original “If I Die Young”, I’ve burnt out on it and lost interest after only a couple of listens because we’ve heard the chorus of this song for 13 years. So I’m wondering if that’s what is holding it back. Honestly, this would have been smart to release first to generate buzz around her coming back but then pull it for another single that’s fresh. Hoping that’s what they do soon, because with the chart run since it’s debut, I don’t see sustained interest in this.

Probably a zero percent chance this re-enters the chart. This really grew on me and it’s disappointing they dropped it so soon but I guess they knew it had already peaked.

Hopefully this didn't completely derail her momentum, as just about anything else on her EP would make a decent-to-great single! This always seemed like it was intended to be more of a buzz single to me, so hopefully they're planning some kind of legit push for another one.

I think this song is too similar as the original version.
At fist,I love this song instantly because of nostalgia.
Then I got bored very soon because I already listened to the original version too many times with similar lyrics especially the chorus.
I personally think if this one has completely different lyrics it will be better.It's just like I have listened to Kitty Wells' It Wasn't God That Made Honky Tonk Angels too many times before I first listened to Hank Thompson's Wild Side of Life.I don't feel bored because the lyrics are different.

I could 100% be wrong about this, but I don’t think it was song choice that caused her to fail. I think it’s a combo of her age as a female, and the bridges that were burned when she initially left the genre. I love her and her voice and I genuinely hope I’m wrong and her next song connects.
