Hopefully this is another big hit for Keith. This is definitely my favorite track off Fuse.

Perfect choice. Not my favorite album of Keith Urban's, but so far they've been doing a good job of picking singles from it. This oughta be another big hit for him and it's one of my favorites on the record as well, so I'm excited for it's release.

I was not as big a fan of this album as others were. But this is one of the exceptions. "Cop Car" has the uniqueness and feel (Along with the easy to remember title) to become a huge hit for Keith. It was a no brainer for a third single. I imagine this to wind up in the top 5 on the 2014 year end chart. This is my favorite Keith song since "Til Summer Comes Around" which I found to be in his top three or four songs he has ever recorded. Good choice by his label.

Co-written by Matt Jenkins ("King Of The Castle, "Bad As I Want To"). He also helped write "Runnin Out Of Air" by Love and Theft, and "Stripes" by Brandy Clark.

Great choice. I can see this being a pretty big hit throughout the winter.

This was a no brainer to be a winter ballad single. Come spring they will probably release another up tempo like She's my 11 or Red Camaro(numerous choices actually).
Although I really hope the Eric Church duet can single.
At any rate- I would have been shocked if this wasn't a single-it should zip right up there.

Yes! First Keith Urban single I like since Without You. Should be another number 1 for him.

So thankful for this single release. The charts have really been starved for deep, meaningful ballads lately. This has been a disappointingly "shallow" winter in terms of the selection of music currently being played on the radio. Even ballads like "Sweet Annie" and "Don't Let Me Be Lonely" have pretty vague lyrics and are pretty difficult for me to get into. This is really well-written, easily among my top 10 favorite Keith Urban singles to date.

Yay! So glad this is official now. Definitely one of the main standouts on the album and will indubitably be a #1 hit by the end of the winter months.

I didn't like the direction he took on this album, but I love this song. Definitely his best single since 'Til Summer Comes Along, and of his very best of his career. It will be nice to have a superstar release to root for at the start of the year.

I guess I'm in the minority here. Upon first listen to the album, I found this song to be rather boring. After listening to it again...
...I still find it pretty 'blah'.

If Cop Car does better than George Strait's latest, he (Strait) should title his song I Got A Cop Car.

Since there was no real official image, I cobbled this together from the Aircheck ad.  |

Yes! First Keith Urban single I like since Without You. Should be another number 1 for him. Funny, since that's the only single of his besides "You're My Better Half" that I didn't like. I just found "Without You" incredibly clichéd lyrically, and its melody more monotonous than any of Casey Beathard's super-limited melodies. I absolutely loved this entire album, though. |

There is only 1 song on FUSE that I don't care for and that is Even The Stars Fall For You! The rest of the album I really love.

Easily the best song on an otherwise underwhelming album. Should easily hit #1. Glad it was chosen next.

I absolutely love this song. I'm usually middle of the road with keith urban releases. I kinda burned quickly on we were us and a little bit of everything was kinda just there I didn't hate it but didn't like it. This to me feelsike something I have heard from urban since stupid boy which is a masterpiece of a song. Lyrically it's great and urban draws the most out of it he can just telling an amazing sorry. This should in my opinion be a smash multi week number 1

This song debuts at #58 on the 1/4 Billboard chart. Haven't seen the audience total, but probably it will be somewhere between 800k and 1.1 million, probably toward the low end of that range.
It's a hit!

This song is spectacularly good. I want it to win some ACMs if possible.

Official Single Cover: Nothing special. I wished they used the image that was in the Country Update last week. Nah, this just means that the label hasn't actually created an official single cover yet (in which case, Taste Of Country will often use these "CD Pro" images in their reviews). It's quite possible that they'll use the Aircheck image or maybe there will just be no single cover, or perhaps an 'unofficial' one. |
