Solid choice, but was rooting for "Cold".

My third favorite on the album behind the title track and “You Should Probably Leave,” but I’m not sure I see it becoming a big hit.

I know this song is doing well since the album release but it's still an odd radio single choice. Would rather have Cold or Arkansas as single, especially that this could be the final single of the album (probably will peak around second anniversary of the album).

This makes sense. It’s a nice simple pleasant tune that seems to be connecting already. Would have preferred something uptempo like “Devil Always Made Me Think Twice” but this was one of the top single options.

Solid choice, but was rooting for "Cold". I like "Joy Of My Life" as well, but I was also hoping for "Cold" to be the next country radio single. |

This might be my favorite Stapleton song that has been sent to radio. I just really dig the vibe.

Sorry for double post, but Cold debuts at #1 on Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart. (Surprised it is not considered recurrent by Billboard.)

"Cold" was never an official single at radio so it's not really eligible for "recurrent" status. Same with "Tennessee Whiskey," even if the latter one gets airplay equivalent to such a thing. |

I grew to love “Starting Over” and loved “You Should Probably Leave” almost instantly, but this isn’t doing anything for me. I would have much rather seen them send out “Maggie’s Song,” which is my favorite thing from him to date.

I heard a radio interview where Chris said that the label wanted “Maggie’s Song” as the current single but Chris told them no because he gets very emotional singing it and doesn’t want to play it every night in concert.

25 weeks on the chart and just barely scraping the top 30.. Maybe Country radio just isn't super into this sleepy AC song?

This never felt extremely radio friendly to me. Probably just a top 20 hit to keep him out there before moving on to a album era early next year.

I’m sure this is mostly a placeholder at this point. Looking back, “Maggie’s Song” probably would have been a better choice, as it at least maybe would have streamed better. Hopefully Chris has a couple more uptempo songs on his next album that can fit radio, this past album was a little sleepy despite being really good.

By definition of the recurrent rules, this should go recurrent later today on Mediabase. "Joy of My Life" has been without a bullet for three straight weeks.
It barely missed being rewarded with a bullet last Sunday/Monday. Lost over 100 spins and 900k in total audience this week.

It's my least favorite from him to radio and I really think they messed up not sending "Maggie's Song" out! |

I know that Chris refused to release that one to radio, but there had to have been better options than this one. It’s a nice song, but quite boring. Even giving “Cold” a country radio release would have made more sense. |
