The sad thing is that "Footprints On The Moon" was the most obvious single choice for me from Gabby's album vs Maren's situation where she definitely didn't pick the most obvious single (justice for "All My Favorite People" and "A Song For Everything'!).
I'm really not a fan of Gabby, but it does suck to see her current single flopping because for me it's her best single yet and has such a great chorus.

Don’t get me started on “A Song For Everything.” Lol. That might be one of my favorite things she’s ever done and was screaming to be picked as a single (because it was a for sure #1 hit waiting to happen), but was left on the table.

She's in a great spot regardless of how this one does. She is definitely competing more with herself for airplay at this point than she is with other songs, and even with "Footprints" possibly flopping, they can quietly sweep it under the rug and launch a new lead single from her in 2022 and I'm sure it would take off pretty quick. It's sad to see this one not doing very well because it was one of the best jams on her debut album, but she had back-to-back singles that were the biggest hits of 2020 and 2021, respectively, so this one being a miss isn't really something that I see affecting her much.

I do think whatever released from the album was probably gonna struggle regardless.
I will say if the lead single to her next album struggles like this one (I don't think it will but just in case it does) then I think some red flags could be raised for Gabby Barrett's longevity.

I'm giving this a month until i'll give up on it and call it a flop. Okay I gave it 4.5 months. And I never heard it on the radio once. I turned on Music Choice for a few hours last week and heard it twice.

I do agree with Ray that almost anything she would have released to follow up her first two singles most likely wouldn’t have done well. They were so undeniably big that they were much more focused on those than this one.
I think a good duet with a male would definitely help set her back up for her next era. That’s probably the direction I would go for the lead off the next project.

Yeah, I enjoy Ingrid’s music (not quiet a stan like you but still like her a lot) and even I don’t know why they aren’t pushing that duet. It’s funny because Sam Hunt would’ve been the person I thought would be a good duet partner for Gabby since he has that country r&b sound as well.

I am still truly baffled Gabby's team didn't try crossover with "The Good Ones". It screams HAC hit to me.
I am not on board that this song is done yet, but -and I won't rehash what's been said above- she's gonna be fine......unless her team mismanages her next project. I have a secret worry she's going to try to go the "Got Me" route with a lead.

Deluxe edition of Goldmine drops next month. The updated album cover looks MUCH better than the original imo.

100% agree about the cover. The original one was horrible lol.
Also, I’m glad she finally performed FOTM, but it definitely sounded very similar to the studio version lol.

Gabbys released a new song from the deluxe album called pick md up. Very country sounding. I really like it.

I like the new song from the deluxe. Only thing I’ll nit pick is I wish she sang “up” and “truck” differently in the chorus, but other than that a solid deluxe edition song. I really like the production on it.

The new deluxe track definitely sounds like the most authentic song we've gotten thus far from Gabby and while the production actually fits her voice for once, the song is so boring. I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll ever get on board with her. This song is just another generic cut for me.

Okay, I was NOT expecting Gabby to slap me in the face with steel guitar like that about half a second into "Pick Me Up"!!! This is the countriest her production has ever sounded, and I am really digging it!!

^ While I agree “Footprints” should be pulled; I think it should be in the next month or two and just move on to the new era. Releasing the new one would put her back from releasing a new album until 2023, which would really hurt her momentum if the song didn’t take off. Whereas she can move onto a new era Q1 of next year and it will be like “Footprints” never happened, since she’s still riding the incredible high of the first two singles.
It really does baffle me that radio didn’t warm up to this one though. I think it is the 3rd strongest song in the album only trailing behind the first two singles.

"Pick Me Up" sounds like a smash. They should've just not even bothered with a deluxe edition of the debut album and just held off until early 2022 and dropped that as the lead-off to her sophomore project. That song has been stuck in my head and on repeat since I first listened to it. Easily one of the best things she's put out so far, which is saying a lot because her material thus far has been fantastic.

This was finally added to Hot Country’s playlist on Spotify, so expect an extreme increase in streaming numbers for this. Maybe it can get the ball rolling to at least secure a top 20 peak.

If the label still pushing it top 20 still seems possible to me. Even her two #1s took forever to climb the charts. Anyone know where this is on the charts?
