A lot of boyfriend country on this album (Better With You being my personal fave) but this isn’t bad. Could see it being one of those 50-weeks charting to number one.

Not the best song in the world, but a very nice one and definitely a grower imo

I really like the melody. I am just SO over these snap-clap beats in country however. It needs to go away.
Otherwise, this is nice.

Great choice! I wanted either this or Only You from the album as the next single, so happy for this choice! The melody is beautiful.

Waiting like... half a year to release the follow-up single to their comeback hit ("Just the Way") that actually put them back on the map again, is a rather strange choice. I feel like a lot of the momentum they had from that hit has waned by now, and the album came and went with barely a ripple (and they also waited too long to release it to properly capitalize on their hit single, too). It'll be interesting to see if that last single was just a one-off fluke and they'll slip back into irrelevancy or if they'll actually be able to score another hit. Currently I'm leaning towards the former.

Eh this song is off to a solid start add date wise as it got 30 adds. Not the best ever but a very solid add date given the gap from "Just The Way"

Oh wow this song is definitely off to a very strong start with this debuting 2 weeks after going for adds and the gap between this and "Just The Way". I definitely think the strong start, streams (over 16 million streams on Spotify), and sales (#57 on iTunes Country which is on par with Eric Church "Heart On Fire").
I will say listening to this song is so relaxing and I definitely think this was the perfect follow-up and I am excited to see it do well on the charts

Enters the Mediabase Top 50 at #50 gaining 8 spots this week with a bullet of 59 and has the 4th highest bullet of the singles below the Top 30 on Mediabase only trailing Tim McGraw, Cody Johnson, and Taylor Swift. Definitely think this was the right choice for a single and definitely will expect this to be a big hit next year given the solid start for this song.

Like I said in my 2022 prediction post I genuinely think this will be Parmalee's biggest hit and be even bigger than "Just The Way" as this song has done consistently solid since being released and making Top 40 in 3 months since adds especially for an act like Parmalee is very good indicators for this song.

I really like this song and it is doing pretty well! Still in the 30s but I think it’ll make a slow climb and be a hit in the end.

As this heads to number one, Parmalee's re-accent into country radio's good graces has been one of the most shocking. Before Just the Way, it had been 2015 since they had a top-10 hit.
Please go with Better With You next - massive smash there as well.

Please go with Better With You next - massive smash there as well. As big as this and their last song have been, they still feel like such a faceless band to where despite the high they're currently experiencing with back-to-back smashes, it seems like they'd be just as likely to have their next single be a flop and them go back to irrelevancy. It will be interesting to see if they can keep their momentum going after this. |

They could sit next to me on a train or serve me ice cream at the parlor and I would not recognize any one of them. |

I feel like this and their last singles made enough impact to move the needle for them but it still seems like they’re pretty faceless in the genre. Are they just too generic or it’s more of been there done that type of thing?

I’ve always loved them tho and met them too and they’re super nice. |

I love the concept of this video as it reminds me of the video for LANCO's "Greatest Love Story." |

I saw these guys a handful of years in concert. It’s good to see them get a few more hits after years of not much success.
