Taylor Releases New Year’s Day To Country Radio

Recommended Posts

Taylor is releasing New Years Day as an official country radio single! Kind of shocked by this, I’m hoping it smashes and crosses over to adult pop too

 

Taylor Swift is returning to country radio

Hot on the heels of her CMA Awards win, Taylor Swift is giving country radio another go. 

The pop star's label, Big Machine Label Group, has just serviced her song "New Year's Day" to country radio 

It's been three years since Swift last charted on country radio: "Shake It Off" peaked at #58 on Billboard's Country Airplay chart in 2014. 

"New Year's Day," a spare piano ballad, is the final track on Swift's new album, "Reputation."

Earlier this week, she performed it on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon." 

While the hip-hop-flavored "Reputation" finds Swift worlds removed from country music, she's had surprising success in the genre this month.

On Nov. 8, she won the CMA Award for Song of the Year for "Better Man," which she wrote for country group Little Big Town.

interesting1 I have to re-listen to New Years Day to know what to think about this to be honest.

I don’t see a hint of country in it besides the fact it’s an understated ballad

I did not pick up any “country” vibes from NYD but ok girl get your coin!

Yeah I don’t get it at all but maybe it’s a way to have it grow as a potential future crops over single

Exactly. But, w/e, I guess. 

 

She should have just saved it for pop radio later on.

She also released Shake It Off to country radio last era so like... I think her judgment with her Original Genre has shaken quite a bit. Hahaha.
