I thought this was a strange single choice at first, but with the radio edit and after hearing it on the airwaves several times, it honestly sounds like a smash. Whoever did ultimately pick this as a single knew what they were doing.

I think this finally grew on me. I didn’t care for much of her output aside from “Things A Man Oughta Know,” but this one is a jam.
I think it being so different is kind of it’s appeal. This was the right choice as a single.

Why aren’t there any comments on her new song?
I just remembered she had a new song out and listened to it which was released last month LOL because the music app I use that does not have many songs of Broken Bow artists
Anyway I feel this song’s good but cannot compare to Barbara Mandrell’s classic I always have reserved feelings towards Lainey’s upbeat songs but like it or not I feel Lainey has successfully built her brand the country with a flare thing is really memorable Speaking of brand I feel Megan Moroney has done it too — the emo cowgirl

Anyway I feel this song’s good but cannot compare to Barbara Mandrell’s classic ??? She's talking about this: I understand why it's being compared, just like how "Moonshine" drew comparisons to "Strawberry Wine," but I'm not sure why it matters because once again both songs are amazing and they're compared because they're less frequently recycled themes... than whatever all the men are constantly doing.

Co hosting CCUSA on April 27-28, so her push week will most likely be the week that follows.
I know she'll probably make Mediabase #1, but I'm curious if she will get blocked on BB, because she's a good bit behind in audience to some of the songs ahead of her that I don't think will be dropping by the time her push week comes.

With it being that early I think she easily gets blocked on Billboard, Tyler Hubbard and Jordan Davis are just way too far ahead, (not to mention where does Sam Hunt "Outskirts" fit in as I think that will be a slow faller) and I do think Bailey Zimmerman "Where It Ends" passes her this week as well as that song is really gaining momentum.

I wonder if they’re pushing early to release “Country’s Cool Again” as the next single.

I wonder if they’re pushing early to release “Country’s Cool Again” as the next single. This is the only logical explanation for this because there's really no other reason why this couldn't just naturally hit #1 on both charts in like ~2 months, but moving on from this to new music wouldn't be a bad idea at all to do sooner rather than later, so I don't necessarily blame them.

Not the biggest fan of “Country’s Cool Again,” I actually prefer this one to that one. Add me to the list of hoping her next single is something brand new.

I hope it's not "Country's Cool Again" for the next single as that song almost feels like a novelty/parody (hard to explain why those were the first two words that came to mind) and just doesn't sound great for radio. It's a fine enough song overall, but something about it feels off.

Count me in on the "Country’s Cool Again" hate train; I wanted to like it sooo bad but it’s just complete ass. Hoping for a brand new single to follow this up with.

Oh god, please not "Country's Cool Again". While I find most of Lainey's singles just boring and average, CCA is really awful, imo. I haven't hated any of her radio singles (except "Dirty Looks" was horrendous but that barely counts), but CCA is bad. Ray said it right that it sounds like a novelty song.

Hope this can at least scrape the top 5 when they go for the max push soon, but it barely gained anything this week and got passed by Kenny Chesney, so not exactly looking too promising so far. Such a shame. I fully expected this to add to her #1 totals based on how huge she's become in the format, but alas, guess it wasn't meant to be. The women just can never truly win, even when they're on top.

Eh, I'm okay with this missing #1 as I have been having a bit of burnout on Lainey Wilson and this song has burned out on me pretty quickly. She'll probably have plenty more #1s after this as well.

I think this’ll get there on Mediabase idk. BB I don’t think will happen, but I could see a massive push. Maybe just wishful thinking.

Do you ever wonder if “they” made her too big too fast?!!? Kind of a la Gretchen Wilson. I mean, girl won FVOTY with only two solo singles. Either too big too fast, or just a commentary on the sad state of female artists on the radio right now.
I still look for the day when they give the same attention to Carly, Kelsea, and Maren (if she wants it).

They've done a terrible job at setting this up with good spins going into push week. Has a mere bullet of 36. Her push next week is either going to have to be huge or they are going to have to manipulate the chart to where Tyler Hubbard loses spins, if they want this to hit #1 on Mediabase.

To me it seems like the industry has wanted to make her the it girl and has helped her succeed. Because music is subjective and I find her completely overrated, there are many other ladies I’d rather see get this level of industry support from, so for me I hope the parallels to Grentchen’s career ring true.

I completely agree. There’s no way this is hitting #1 on Billboard. I wonder if this is why Broken Bow has decided to push it much earlier than any of us expected. This must be receiving bad callouts and simply just not connecting so radio doesn’t want to play it anymore.

These push weeks are planned 1-2 months in advance I'm pretty sure. I think they must've thought it would have continued to gain steadily over that time period; whereas it has gained very minimal, letting songs behind it pass, and making the gap between it and the songs ahead grow larger.
