Can someone offer the cliff-notes of what this means? Carly already has ties with questionable people a la Big Machine. The management she signed with is with Narvel Blackstock, Reba's ex-husband. The son of whom is also Kelly Clarkson's ex-husband... Hence the mention of Reba and Kelly both running away from that family.

I don't like this.... Reba/Kelly ran from that family for a reason. She didn’t…

Reba and Lelly may have left them but they were married to them. I always though they were good managers overall. Unless I had missed something during Reba and Kelly’s exits.

This is absolutely incredible. It has gotten off to a bit of a slow start at radio, but I'm definitely still expecting a major hit for Carly in this one, and I think that the impact will be considerably higher than her last hit too once it really gets going.

Wow. This video of the concert is incredible. Goes to show that once country radio can’t ignore it any longer, it’s going to be MASSIVE. Granted, the song’s been out for nearly a year before being a hit, so her stans were gonna know it verbatim already regardless, but for even more casual fans to know every word when the song JUST went to radio is pretty impressive. Excited to see this song get its wings soon. As an aside…by going through the comments of that reel, I found out that she’s had a new man in her life for over a year now. Was this common knowledge or am I just Patrick Star living under a rock so happy for her either way! (and she definitely scored in the looks department )

I’ve been drooling over Riley for a long time. Big upgrade from Michael, imo 😜

This is her hit. Radio needs to take notice. This song is already gold eligible and only recently became a single.

If this sees a spike today sales wise, GMA would be the reason,

Already debuting on the bubbling under chart, despite still being mid 40s on the airplay chart? Ms. Carly you have a smash on your hands.

I realize the charts are slow, and that this isn't doing bad at all, but...I'm twiddling my thumbs at this taking off. It's just....not moving at the pace I maybe expected....yet.

Maybe some of the men in charge at radio don’t want to play it because they don’t DO those those either 😂🤷🏻♀️

I keep seeing people say this is moving slower than expected but I'm really failing to see that at all. Where were you expecting it to be at this point?

And I don't want to be those people who look ignorant to the reality of the slow country charts. It just feels like the interest in this song is SO strong - as proven by the streams + that video of the crowd singing loudly - that this would maybe move a bit faster than the rest of her singles. Yes it's a 3rd single, but also there's never been organic interest this high for her.

It’s essentially suffering what “Ghost Story” is suffering — being a song that is sung by someone who doesn’t have $1.50 in their jeans. The song will (hopefully) be fine, but we still have so much more work to do towards real and consistent equal airplay. God, I wish this were the 90s

As much as women continue to struggle on purely sexist bases, I don't know if this is totally comparable to Carrie. Carrie is suffering from many different forces (slowly entering legacy status, single only casually impacting in streams/sales, album release date) while Carly's single - which I want to repeat is NOT doing bad, its bullet today proves it - simply isn't moving at the pace that you might expect a song that is connecting as well as this one is. I am not sounding some alarm or hoping people think this song is doomed or anything; it's probably going to be a #1 and a big hit for her in the end. I am just hoping I am not going crazy to think this should be moving a little faster given the organic interest.

I will say this isn't a song I exactly want to hear a lot during the summer months which might explain why it's moving just a touch slower than expected. This isn't exactly a song to be converted during the summer months imo.

Not really WHDD related, but Carly’s been working on her next album and she teased a song that sounds really good. When I shared her teasing WHDD on here when it was still unreleased it aged well, so hoping this one does too.
If I were to guess the title is “Better Off.” Still most likely about Michael, but from a very healed perspective now.

Also hope WHDD starts flying soon, this reluctance from radio is ridiculous.

^ that is gorgeous and SO country sounding. I'm glad she is sticking with the sound of the 29 era.

Whew. These first two demos she's blessed us with are amazing. I am super perched for album 4. I think it'd be super cool if she had a continuation of using her age for the title of the album; at least for the next album, and name it 31 or 32.

That theme has already been claimed by Adele, I would be surprised if she tried to do it as well.

Moves into the top 30 today on the rolling chart; passing, well, the subject of the song, to get there. I have to hope an official music video is on the way soon. It worries me that we haven't gotten one yet. Certainly they would make one, given that this is set up to be one of her more impactful hits, right?
