ShootingStar Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 i like this a lot, the production gives me classic carrie vibes. not expecting it to smash but it doesn't really matter.
Mezik Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 So, this is the same song writing team that wrote Crazy Angels. As well, last year there were rumours sparking that Carrie’s team was in talks to secure Mackenzie Porter’s ‘Pickup’ as a single. Between this being thematically similar to ‘Ghost Story’ and what I said above, I bet this song didn’t make the final track list for D&R… All I can say is.. her team screwed up. They shouldn’t have put ‘Ghost Story’ on the album at all, as this song is far superior lyrically and would’ve had a full album of Carrie co writes. Like, even when promoting ‘Ghost Story’ in radio interviews Carrie sounded miserable talking about this song and I’m starting to think it’s because she knew this was better.

Don’t forget them choosing hate my heart over crazy angels as a single it’s hard out here for Carrie Stans
goldstargay Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Who is managing her? This whole era could have been a MOMENT but it was fumbled at every turn

Maybe her label put their foot down and told her she had to record more commercial music? I mean, Arista Nashville was sh*t from Blown Away on, but Capitol Nashville takes the cake right now. She needs new management, too.
Rylary Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 I feel like she too makes some weird choices - she loves pink champagne but chose not to sing it in this current tour. Something must have happened with her management team for her to deliberately not sing this. Same goes for Velvet Heartbreak
GVet Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Solid song; miles better than the singles this era. In terms of management, I firmly believe she has creative control and chose these singles herself. Wasn’t that the big thing in her switching labels?

Home girl needs to not be allowed to make her own decisions. Ghost Story wasn’t her choice. She said the label made her release it because it was the most “typical Carrie” sounding song.

Tylerbv Posted March 11, 2023 Author Posted March 11, 2023 Spotify fully updated - 214k streams. Honestly much better than expected for a random dropped single with shitty playlisting.

Bentley Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 Her and her team have fumbled the bag ever since the storyteller era Burn should have been the lead
Right Now Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 I really can’t stop listening to this now. What an instant smash. I need them to PUSH. Not necessarily drop HMH, but just send this too and see what happens.
Frozen99 Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 she's really so lost, storyteller was amazing, cry pretty was pretty darn good.. then from rhinos i kept only garden and now this song.. how basic and boring
Tylerbv Posted March 12, 2023 Author Posted March 12, 2023 Still unsure what the plan for this is. I do think it has radio and crossover appeal but they probably will keep pushing HMH, which probably won’t reach top 10 on radio or chart on the H100
Tylerbv Posted March 12, 2023 Author Posted March 12, 2023 Day 1: 214k Day 2: 154k Not amazing but not bad considering the shitty playlisting. Should drop a lot day 3 since it's Sunday.
