Artist: Morgan Wallen f/ ERNEST Single: Cowgirls Album: One Thing At A Time Label: Big Loud Records/Mercury Records/Republic Records Impact Date: April 15th, 2024 (Country Aircheck weekly) Writers: Ashley Gorley, Ernest Keith Smith, James Maddocks, Milan Modi, Rocky Block, Ryan Vojtesak
8th (!) radio single from One Thing At A Time, which was previously teased as a potential single by Morgan himself. For the impact date, USRadioUpdater says April 8th but Musicrow website says April 15th. I listed both for now. EDIT: Edited Country Aircheck weekly also shows April 15th, so I believe it's the adds date.

I'm not the biggest fan of the song itself, but this does make sense since this has always connected really well among all the songs from the album. Also I don’t mind Ernest getting a radio hit.

I love this song and given the recent adds at radio I was expecting it to be picked next. I hope they try crossing over with this song but I for sure see a hit at country radio.

*Proceeds to release everything except "98 Braves." I hate it.
As for the song, I don't care for it, and really don't understand many peoples take that he "saved" country music, as songs like this don't sound remotely country at all.
Heres hoping "98 Braves" sees the light of day, cause I kinda feel like he's going to start releasing new songs from a forthcoming project, like he did with "You Proof" and "Thought You Should Know."

Well here we go. Given it’s streaming is still strong alongside the fact it charted for 20 weeks on that alone this was an obvious choice and it should be huge. A shame that it’s also one of his worst songs but what can you do?

I'm not a big fan of this one at all, definitely my least favorite of the album's singles thus far with ease, but this is going to be huge and was not only expected but a totally logical choice. I just hope they push this as a crossover hit because it would be silly if they don't at least attempt to give this the "Last Night" treatment.

I surely preferred 98 Braves, but this one is still quite catchy and glad that they are still sticking to the loaded album, instead of moving on to Spin You Around. Also, ERNEST deserves a hit!

It may be a while until Post releases his country album, but curious what their plans are with that considering the Post/Morgan song garned a huge amount of interest.

I can't help but find this pretty catchy. I love ERNEST, and I think he and Morgan Wallen actually work great together.

"You Proof" is so old atp that I forgot it was part of this era, lol. This one is better than that one at least.

I like the song but I wouldn’t rank it even in the top half of this album. I much rather have preferred “‘98 Braves”, “Tennessee Numbers” or “Whiskey Friends”.

I don’t mind this, but it’s probably my least favourite single so far. Disappointed that they didn’t go with “‘98 Braves”, but hopefully it’s next.

I mean we can never be 100% certain until it actually happens, but several months back he basically said that song + "Cowgirls" would be singles and now here we are, so... all signs point to it.

Best for last I guess? The only reason I can think of for choosing this mess over "98 Braves" next for radio. I will riot if that's not next.

I mean "'98 Braves" is clearly the better song, but "Cowgirls" being a single was a no-brainer given how big its already been without being pushed. It has almost twice as many streams on Spotify currently than "Braves" does, and it's got the crossover potential angle that we saw with "Last Night" and "Thinkin Bout Me." He seems to be pivoting back and forth between the two ends of the spectrum with the singles by sprinkling songs like "Everything I Love" and "Man Made a Bar" in between the poppier tunes, so I'm hopeful that "Braves" will come out in a few months and continue the trend.

Honestly Tennessee Numbers is a song i would really like for him to push. I doubt it’ll do aswell as the other singles but it would be one of his better ones thus far.

This should reenter the Hot 100 this week, no? I think with its steady streaming, increase in radio audience, and Taylor album bomb songs decreasing, this should have enough to be back in the Top 50.

As a huge Ernest fan, I'm definitely rooting for this song to do well, mostly for his sake. Cowgirls has definitely grown on me a lot, as I didn't like it at all upon release, but it's still nowhere near either artist's best work
Not surprised they released this as a single now, since Ernest just released his new album around the same time. Definitely sense some cross promoting going on here.
Would've much rather Flower Shops been the huge hit, but I guess I'll take what I can get

98 Braves will be the final single once this peaks. I concur with everyone saying it's the better song but you have to be smart since Earnest just dropped an album and the streams for this picked up in recent weeks
