New Dan + Shay single comes out on July 31st. I'm assuming ISPGTB is an acronym ("I Should Probably Go To Bed" is my guess).

I legit thought that was the Vanilla Twilight video. Good guess on the acronym! I hope that's the title. 🤞

Cringe song title. It sounds like a children’s story or something.

This isn't as cringe as something like "Truck Yeah" or "Baby, Lets Lay Down And Dance" or anything. Same. It sounds like an old school country title. Wordy, descriptive, kinda piques your curiosity. It's definitely their most interestingly-named single title to date imo.

I wonder if it’s the same concept as Emerson Drive’s “I Should Be Sleeping.”

Audio: Video premieres tomorrow at Noon CT/ 1 PM ET Opinions? It’s catchy and will crush on the Hot AC charts, but not my favorite from them on first listen. Shay’s voice is great as always.

Initially I’m very underwhelmed. I hope it really grows on me.

I don’t hate it, just underwhelmed. However, this song is a 100% Hot AC fodder. It’s still their usual ballad/midtempo work until that final chorus. When that high note and the beat hit in, it became even more Poppier than it already was.
This might be my two cents but it’s starting to become clear they’re aiming for crossovers instead of making genuinely good songs.

I actually like this, and probably would be listening to this a lot. But do I like it on Country radio? I'm not sure. It's clear it is going for crossovers and I agree would fit in Hot AC. Shay's voice is one of my favorites.

This is disappointing. It’s not that it’s a radical shift in sound from their usual material, which has always leaned Pop, but it’s the absence of the few elements that gave them an organic Pop/Rock sound. This just sounds kind of immature, like it was recorded by Jonas Brothers or 5 Seconds of Summer. It’s not horrible, but they’re capable of so much better.

Probably will grow on me like 99% of songs I don’t initially like, but they could do so much better. They’re approaching the sellout region so I hope they don’t completely abandon their roots with future releases.

This is by far one of the worst singles they’ve released but I don’t hate it.

I just kept waiting for it to jump in tempo, or something. It was so boring.

I was worried about this. I could tell they’ve been aiming more toward the mainstream and crossover success. I don’t fault them there at all. But, what we have here is very boring. It’s like they’re trying to breakthrough without abandoning their sound, which isn’t easy. It just doesn’t work for me. I hope the album is better.

These 2 fools just need to stop sending songs to country radio, they’re an absolute disgrace to the format. Im not sure which song i hate more, this or Hard to Forget(from another disgrace)... its a toss up.

I've listened to it a few times and I already totally forget what it sounded like, other than that it felt pretty slow, boring, and unremarkable. Definitely a bit of a letdown imo after some great singles from them the past few years. Shame because the song title had real promise in my head of being used for something interesting, lol.

This is an absolute snoozer. That 20 second tempo change doesn't save it.

Im not sure which song i hate more, this or Hard to Forget(from another disgrace)... its a toss up. What makes these guys fools? Just because they send it to country radio doesn't mean country radio needs to play it. And in today's country, they are pretty on par with how the format sounds (albeit maybe more popish). Not sure why they're a disgrace.

Im not sure which song i hate more, this or Hard to Forget(from another disgrace)... its a toss up. They’re basically Rascal Flatts as a duo and they are by far a disgrace to the country music genre. Dan + Shay are definitely gonna be Rascal Flatts popular so if you don’t like them you don’t have to listen to them. As long as Shay Mooney is singing I will listen to his voice of gold.
