I could be wrong, though. I am about 99% sure that neither "See You Again" or "Wine After Whiskey" will become singles, though. |

I think single #4 will be one of these 4: One Way Ticket, Leave Love Alone, Cupid or Nobody Ever Told You.

Out of those four, I'd pick Leave Love Alone. It's definitely a foot tapper. Cupid and OWT are just annoying to me, and I don't see them being received all that well. But, what do I know?

Carrie did do the floating stage last night, and here was the set list:
1) Good Girl
2) Undo It
3) Wasted
4) I Told You So
5) Two Black Cadillacs
----costume change----
6) Last Name
7) Temporary Home
8) Jesus, Take the Wheel
9) Cowboy Casanova
----costume change----
Floating stage:
10) Get Out of This Town
11) Nobody Ever Told You
12) All-American Girl
13) One Way Ticket
----costume change----
14) Leave Love Alone
15) Flat on the Floor
16) Remind Me
17) Cupid's Got a Shotgun
18) Before He Cheats
----costume change----
Encore:
19) I Know You Won't

So the songs that were cut are: Sweet Emotion, Crazy Dreams, Thank God For Hometowns, Do You Think About Me (3 of those were previously sung on the floating stage). Song added: Flat On the Floor.

Following the albums numerical logic, See You Again just might be the 4th single. Also,
she never sings it live. Jmo

It's also the most "country" song of the four. Considering none of the first three singles have been country in any real way, I think it's important she release something that is next. |

I'm hearing it's in the running. I'm gonna need your sources so I can tell them not to. All four of those options would be so damn poor in comparison to the opportunities Carrie has with releasing "Do You Think About Me", "Wine After Whiskey", "Good in Goodbye", or "See You Again". Granted, the latter 3 probably wouldn't ever get released anyways because she isn't performing any of them live on tour, but those four would be her best options, in my opinion. I just do not want to see "Nobody Ever Told You" released to radio. |

^My source is a PD from one of the Radio stations in Nashville. They were asked to give feedback on those 4 songs. It doesn't mean any of them will be a single but apparently they are getting feedback on those 4.

If they want to release a happy, upbeat one, then go with "Do You Think About Me", which is a much better song and seems to be a fan favorite. |

I've been wanting OWT as a single since the album came out! Hopefully that's the next one. Spring is coming soon, so she could be the first of this years artists to release a warmer weather song!

I can't see a ballad being next, after Blown Away and TBC were released back-to-back. My gut is telling me the next single is "Cupid's Got a Shotgun", and then probably "One Way Ticket" as the final single.

I'm on the OWT bandwagon. I think it's the perfect summer song and would do really well. Out of the four that layne mentioned, OWT is definitely the best choice. Nobody Ever Told You has a nice, summery production that has a different sound to it compared to the rest of country radio, but the lyrics and melody are just way too generic. No way should it be released. Cupid is a good country-sounding song, but something about that song slightly irritates me (I think it's the overly loud production). Leave Love Alone is an excellent foot-tapper, but the lack of a real chorus and tons of repetition may cause the song to burn on listeners very fast.
I know OWT isn't everyone's cup of tea on this board, but it's a fun summery song that is not meant to be taken seriously. The melody is infectious, and it's a different sound for Carrie. I think it should be the next single. Two Black Cadillacs should peak around March, and OWT would be released just in time for Spring. By the time OWT peaks, we would be well into summer.
I'm hoping Arista will release 5 singles this time around and release either Do You Think About Me or Wine After Whiskey as the final single. That would be an almost perfect album era. It's disheartening to see Do You Think About Me left off the spring leg of the tour, but it probably isn't a good concert song, especially it being slow and one that most of the audience probably doesn't know. Maybe it will still get released, and Carrie can then add the song to a future tour.
I'm not going to even mention See You Again.....(guess I just did, huh?).

^^That's probably why she put DYTAM in the flying stage set. People can be distracted by the spectacle while still enjoying the song.
Anyways, that really sucks that those are the four songs sent out for opinions from radio PDs. Out of those, I'd prefer either "One Way Ticket" or "Leave Love Alone", but I'm not crazy about either one compared to...the rest of the album (minus TGFH and WAY).

^Well I'm speculating that those 4 are being considered for the 4th single. The PD didn't say it was feedback for the next single but just said "feedback". It's possible they have already chosen the next single and were getting feedback for the 5th single. I just can't really see OWT being released at the end of summer though so if it's being considered I think it would be for the next single. That's just my opinion. Plus, I can't see them going with a slow ballad during the summer.

From the start I've been on the "One Way Ticket" bandwagon. It's my favorite song on the album. I think it would smash, but I totally see how it's a 'take it or leave it' kind of song. I'd love to see OWT and WAW in that order. I think WAW would be the perfect album era closer.

Do You Think About Me doesn't have a chance of being the next single? Brb, crying.

The trouble with "One Way Ticket" is that it is stuck in the no-man's land between goofy novelty and would-be party anthem. I think that I would like it better with a messier production and even goofier lyrics. It starts off promisingly enough with the line about feeling "like a fish on a hook/like a bug on dirty windshield" (Carrie's delivery on that line is nice). But ultimately, it never feels right for Carrie to be calling for us to "tell the bossman where he can stick it," and lines like "it matters where you're going, not where you've been" feel forced. Despite the margaritas that Carrie brought in for the studio session, "One Way Ticket" ultimately feels too stiff and starched.
I also think OWT's smash potential is being heavily overestimated by some here. After the breakthroughs of Jake Owen, Little Big Town, and Florida-Georgia Line with summer tracks, I think there will be a number of different releases attempting "song of the summer" status, resulting in a crowded field and diminished returns for all but the one song that does cut through. I don't think "One Way Ticket" is the song that will cut through; it lacks the freshness and quirk of "Pontoon" and it lacks the production-enhanced hookiness of "Barefoot Blue Jean Night." I'm not sure which song will emerge from the pack, but Luke Bryan will be releasing a new single in April, and he has built his emerging superstardom on frat boy country anthems. Brad Paisley's likely next single appears to have a summer theme. Kenny Chesney is already on the charts with his party song. Florida-Georgia Line is breaking through with an album full of practically nothing but party songs.
I understand that Carrie is the only female in the lot, but that doesn't address the disconnect between her natural style and this song. There is also the possibility of Kacey Musgraves releasing "Blowin' Smoke" (which picks up on the idea of a diner employee who has run off from her job and is once again quite a bit stronger as a composition than "One Way Ticket") as her follow-up single to consider. I realize Carrie is the established radio star -- I'm not saying that the crowded field would prevent "One Way Ticket" from hitting #1. But I am saying that as a not terribly distinguished song in a crowded field, it is less likely to be a strong impact track.
I also think it would be a shame and waste to follow three singles that earned critical acclaim for their adventurousness with one of the album's weakest tracks (that also happens to be the album's most critically reviled song). "Cupid's Got a Shotgun" is a silly song that is quite cleverly written, and it received a great reception to a crowd previously unfamiliar with it when Carrie performed it at the iheartradio show in New York City. "Do You Think About Me" has such a sweet, engaging melody with well-written lyrics and a sweet vocal performance to match, and it is a breezy enough track to go over well during the spring and summer. "Wine After Whiskey" is probably the ballad on the album with the strongest hook, while "Good in Goodbye" features the album's standout vocal, in no small part, I think, because it is the only personal song on Blown Away. "Good in Goodbye" admittedly lacks a strong melodic hook, but it has a way of sneaking up on and grabbing me whenever it comes up.
Perhaps the latter two aren't in the single conversation at all, but I would pick the remaining singles from the album from those four tracks. Unfortunately for me, those of you rooting for "One Way Ticket" are much likelier to get your way.

Completely agree with everything you said about "One Way Ticket". I just don't see it being a big hit at all. It's always been one of my least favorites on the album and I'll be highly disappointed if it's a single. I do think it will be the next single if it's being planned as a single at some point though. I can't see it being released in October(ish) as the 5th single. It's got summer-only potential for the most part.
The songs I'd love to see released as the next two singles are "Do You Think About Me" (obviously), and "Wine After Whiskey" as those are lyrically, the best two songs on the album left. I wouldn't be opposed to "Good In Goodbye" either because I know a ton of people who love that song because it relates to them.
If the next single is only between "Nobody Ever Told You", "Leave Love Alone", "Cupid's Got a Shotgun", or "One Way Ticket" I really don't care what they choose as long as its not OWT. The other three are just strong album tracks, imo. I'd probably pick "Leave Love Alone" out of the three though, but it's likely the only singles that will be released in the future from BA will be Carrie co-writes so it'll be one of the other 3.
If in fact DYTAM is not released as a single, that will mark the 4th consecutive album where my favorite song isn't released as a single (Starts With Goodbye, I Know You Won't, Someday When I Stop Loving You, Do You Think About Me). It's a curse I unfortunately have.

I agree that if "One Way Ticket" will be released, it will be next. It needs to peak during the summer. I disagree, though, that it won't be a huge hit. I think it has the potential to be a big summer radio hit and a big digital seller - however, I don't think it will necessarily sell albums.
"Do You Think About Me" would be a great choice for spring/summer, but my hopes for it being a single have gone from 90% to about 5% with the recent tour set list changes.
