I watched the video. After, I realized I was so focused on the visual that I couldn't recall (no pun) the song - at all. That's rarely happened.
I'll give it a few streams this weekend, but I view this 35-minute era as early promo for Wicked. Now if Wicked 1 bombs, it's going to be a rough spell for AG.

I wasn't impressed with this at first, but it opened up from the second listen onwards. I really like the lowkey vocal here too and I'm glad she doesn't go on loud runs or anything like that. She sounds so pretty that the track just glides. Possibly too much to really work as a single, but I'm enjoying this way more than the lead.

Well the video is fantastic and I LOVE the Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind reference throughout (pretty much a direct copy) as it's one of my favorite movies, but I feel the video is much stronger than the song itself. I do enjoy the song for what it is moreso than the first single, but is it a banger? No. I certainly get they were going for with the dichotomy of the upbeat production paired with the heartbreaking message, but it didn't quite carry the emotional wallop it needed to ala "Dancing On My Own", as others have previously highlighted. It's absolutely her emotionless vocal delivery that falls short. Her voice isn't particularly one that exudes much soul or emotion in my opinion, although it is technically-speaking a marvel. It feels slightly dated too. Like I could imagine this on Kelly Clarkson's 2015 album Piece By Piece.

This is pretty. It doesn't grab me as a second single.
I would have gone with "The Boy Is Mine" and cast Barry Keoghan in the video.

So they've stopped pushing 'Yes, And?'... and they didn't get this a premiere deal? What are they doing...

Feel like "True Story" would be a great follow-up to this!

I like this. I think it may be a grower for me. As of now “Bye” and “Yes And” are my two favorites from this album.

I do really like this, however I think a final chorus that brought the synths from the background right to the forefront with some punchier vocals would have made it great. That payoff before going right back down for i wish i hated you would have been a really strong moment.

The video was beautiful. The song sounds fresh & delicate (gives me the same kind of emotion as "One Last Time"). I'm so rooting for this!
Also sort of unrelated but I loved her acting in this. It made me straight up sad.

My friend and I saw the video last night during our pregame before the actual pregame and we both cried.
I already enjoyed the song when I had my initial listen to the album, but it wasn’t my favorite…until the video. Rooting for it to absolutely SMASH the charts.

The production is lush and I really love her restraint with the vocals on this. The video hits hard and may be too personal for many. I could almost feel her aching desperation.

I hope this goes top 5 on pop In a perfect world this goes top 3 on pop and she follows it up with Supernatural and The Boy Is Mine and both become multi-week number one smashes.

It’s growing on me since the first listen. I wanted a bit more first listen, but I’m starting to like it. Favorite part of the song is the chorus, specifically “I’ll wait for your love..” 👍
