Did he switch labels? Last song just peaked at the top and was on BMLG.

Oops that's just my bad copy-pasting.

Out now.

Not that Chris Janson is some savant when it comes to country music or radio releases, but this was the best they could come up with? This just doesn't sound like something country radio would play and doesn't sound that good regardless. 

[Kanenrá:ke]

I don’t hate it, but this is going to age badly. It’s nothing more than radio filler and not particularly interesting. He’s always been particularly good at elevating material I would’ve hated from others, though only to a meh level this time.

Good fucking lord... this is HORRENDOUS. One of the absolute worst country songs I've heard in a hot minute, and to know it's not coming from some random no-name artist but someone who's given us things like "Holdin' Her" in the past and serviceable radio bops like "Buy Me a Boat" or "Fix a Drink." This is just utterly embarrassing. It straight up sounds like a parody song written by AI. Not a single aspect of this track is even tolerable: the lyrics, melody, production... it's all so, so bad. I am actually left in shock rn, lol. I wasn't excepting this to be the follow-up to "All I Need Is You," which was a total nothing of a song and radio hit, but it was at least just your standard inoffensive fluff. But this? Holy shit, lmao. Hopefully this is the final snuff on the torch that is Chris Janson's radio career because we've moved past the need for this bro-country cliche-sounding hot garbage.

I don't dislike this, but I wish he had stayed with more mature sound, such as All I Need Is You/Bye Mom. And the melody is definitely weaker than his other up-tempo songs as well. Not the best song to continue the momentum he got back with AINIY after several flops.  

[George Strait Junkie]

Uh what the hell is this. so Chris skips the rest of the album which had actual bangers like Hank The Hell… & Get It Right. over this bland pile of garbage. yeah ok what ever. hope this fails hard. the production is just bad. and, the lyrics I mean did a six grader write this.

Helped by the hourly debut this is the most added with 94 adds/total stations this week. I still don't hear what is so special about this, but country radio will country radio.

@ me totally missing RaeLynn had a hand in writing this until she posted on IG about it.

I'm sure T-Hubb did most of the work on this though.

I’m not surprised it’s awful since RaeLynn, Chris Jansen and Tyler Hubbard are all atrocious artists but this is soooo bad it’s funny. I was laughing out loud. Watching him in the studio with his hand gestures trying to make this seem serious was hilarious in itself let alone kicking it off with “yeah baby”. Hahaha

Debut at #29 on Billboard's Country Airplay chart this week.

The Rock starring in the music video for this is the most wtf-worthy thing I could've imagined.
