Why do I have a feeling this is gonna make an appearance on Buckley's worst of 2022 list?
It's alright but "Bad For Me" was better.

This song is slowly (…but surely) taking off, the streams speaks for itself. I just find it baffling how Meghan promoted this on TikTok, doing the heavy-lifting for her label and they still couldn’t even get this on. Today's Top Hits. Some labels truly are useless. Let’s hope that changes this week

There we go! Imo, her team is using the right tools to pump the single.

I don't like this at all, "BFM" deserved better. But it would be cool if she managed another hit.

This is cute.. I’m actually not as much into her debut era which this reminds me of. I love a lot of her material from her second album on. I’m a fan of hers so I did add it but it probably won’t stick around to long with me. Things could change I could just be comparing it to the stuff I Loved of hers from the past few years or eras and was hoping for songs more like that.

I loved a lot of Meghan’s stuff post Title but clearly there was such a demand for her doo wop stuff. This is a very strong album regardless, hopefully it grows on you, I know you’ve been a big Meghan supporter here over the years.

Up to 97k tiktok vids. A smash incoming. Mind you, she will be owning this doo-wop sound for years for sure.

Yeah there's definitely buzz about it. If her label was smart they would add it to Today's Top Hits and get her to do multiple live performances concurrently, this might be her only chance to get a hit after Thank You.

It's fine. I like the instrumental but the lyrics, especially in the verses, sound like demo lyrics. I still hope it is a hit for her though

There we go! Imo, her team is using the right tools to pump the single. Absolutely. Regardless of how folks feel about this, her team put some EFFORT into this roll out and it’s definitely working, especially for a “b-artist” like Meghan. Her lead single with Teddy Swims (big ups for her giving him more mainstream presence btw) went as high as it possibly could on Hot AC without chr support so I’m not concluding where it finished is where they expected. This looks like it’s getting much more of a crossover/multi format push and i kinda like the push the first single to the core format (hot ac) giving it solid streams but then going for the multi format hit next during release week for Album longevity.

This is a very strong album regardless, hopefully it grows on you, I know you’ve been a big Meghan supporter here over the years. I agree it is a strong album. Nothing is bad, especially if your fully into that sound. I do really like “Takin It Back, Shook, Dance About It, Breezy, first single Bad For Me and Lucky” There’s a mix that was recently released of “Bad For Me” that has a slightly stronger beat that I really like as well. I don’t hate the Doo Wop sound and it’s always catchy it’s just not my thing fully. However being a big Meghan fan I have been adding songs to different playlists etc and “Made You Look” is on one so who knows it could end up being a favorite???

I would love to see Meghan score another hit, but did it really have to be this one? It's a decent album track, but there's like 4 more viral worthy tracks on her new album.

This is a total bop. Glad to see it showing signs of potentially making at least a little splash for her!

I had the same thought too originally. And there are definitely better tracks on the album. But beware: if you give this enough spins you WILL get addicted to it.

They need to pipe this into every department store across the country ASAP; the increase in foot traffic as the holidays approach would do wonders for her Shazams and streams.
