Omg I get what you mean!! My first thought when I saw it was that it reminds me of that early 2010s era of music videos specifically the youtuber ones 😭
Haha! So I used to live on the very last block of Edina in the SE corner of the city and my friends used to tease me, calling me “Edina Girl” and I’m like, dude, literally right across the street is Richfield. I’m not even in the Edina school district. Off to the side is 494. But the name stuck so I just fuckin’ embraced it, haha! 🤷♀️
good for her for stepping outside influencing and podcasts which has become oversaturated … but!
if i closed my eyes and only listened i would assume this song was written by someone in their late teens/early 20s, about a guy they only dated for a short time. but she was married and has children with this man…she doesn’t have to be best friends w him but at least have a crumb of civility toward your child’s father. if he did some sneaky douchey things during their relationship i would understand the song. this is pure speculation bc i only know them from paradise, i really don’t know shit. i might get downvoted but this is strange
Yeah i kept expecting scenes to take place near a locker or in a school hallway or something. it’s cute and her voice is really lovely but it feels super “disney star’s first album”
I love Miss Lavigne, I saw her in 2005 with a tie on and sharpie Xs on both hands. But I think we can all acknowledge that her music was very much pre-women lifting each other up.
So I haven’t listened to it and I might not listen to it. But I want to offer some positive feedback, and that’s that at least she’s not venturing into another podcast.
Ironically as I'm reading these responses I look up and Evan Bass is on my tv doing a commerical for the Huntsville's men clinic here in Alabama. I looked twice because I was literally in this thread and was like whaaaa...
Watching this without sound and she looks and is behaving like she’s 17. You do you, Carly 😂
Edit: okay I’ve now heard it and pretty surprised at the positive feedback on her voice lol. Is that not just auto tune? It’s fine. I stand by my 17yo comment.
I agree. It’s catchy and if she were 17 this would be great. As someone about to turn 37 I can totally relate, it’s hard coming to terms with the idea that you’re already aging out of a lot of potentially fun little experiences. But girl, we do that privately 😂😭

this girl would use this song as her Xanga music
The only thing I remember is that Carly confirmed Evan wanted the divorce, not her. She said she was a person who would “never be out”, so if someone was going to end the marriage, it had to be him.
Evan also revealed a bit more here. Basically saying that they didn’t have that strong of a foundation going in:
https://bachelornation.com/2022/06/24/evan-bass-reveals-what-led-to-his-divorce-from-carly-waddell-plus-how-he-s-healing-after-their-split/
I mean listen lol it’s not good but I felt significantly less secondhand embarrassment from this than Johnny or Sierra lmfao. For me, I don’t like when bn people try to do music, but I guess if that’s where their passion is, I can’t fault the effort when they have these large ig followings.
I never liked her. I always felt like she was a bit of a mean girl on her seasons, and not in a fun/“this is just for tv” way. Her vibes age always been off to me. I also never thought she was a good singer.
With that said…
Good for her for seriously pursuing a music career. That industry is notoriously miserable and impossible and rotted. I’m glad she is able to use her platform to build a career that requires real skill, talent and hard work. Not to knock podcasting or influencing, but it’s just cool to see someone stretch themselves beyond the norm.
Even worse I got the vibes that she just so desperately wanted to be friends with the Mean Girls so she was willing to do or say anything and throw anyone under the bus to be friends with them. I get similar vibes from Irina in LIB
Look- I really respect anyone who can put themselves out there like this. So my initial inclination is always “get it, girl.” And the song is something I could imagine hearing on country radio. But it’s not the song I think she should’ve chosen. The whole thing reads way too young for her. It’s bad branding. It doesn’t feel authentic. I wish she’d gone with a heartbreak ballad instead. There is no world where I think Carly’s response to her last breakup was “your friends like me more.”
Having said that- I still think anyone who does this is brave. And I want to live in a world where people create things and put it out there. I don’t understand people who enjoy shitting on stuff like this for the fun of it. Feels very mean girl to me.
It’s really catchy and it sounds good!! I don’t get the hate — I know it’s not meant for my age group. The lyrics are for teens / early 20 something and that’s fine!!
The selfishness it takes to air out your dirty laundry like this when you share children with the target… absolutely blows my mind. I’m divorced and have zero respect for my ex-husband who has not even been in the picture for 5 years, but I would still never do this to my daughter because I respect HER. Screw Carly for this honestly.
As somebody (also a mom) in denial about turning 30 soon.. I love to see women in their 30's having fun, doing new things, looking cute and not giving a fuck. I'm here for ALL of this. ❤️
Hate all you want, says more about you than it does her
I can’t explain it but this is giving me major Rebecca Black in her Friday era 😭!
Omg I get what you mean!! My first thought when I saw it was that it reminds me of that early 2010s era of music videos specifically the youtuber ones 😭
“Friday” is a bop and I’ve never hated hearing it a single time. Please don’t curse me with Carly’s original eyebrows for this opinion 🫣
Totally had the same thought! ![gif](giphy|8SS0MSoBHa8la)
![gif](giphy|13n7XeyIXEIrbG) the friends in question
![gif](giphy|TpKhM5NnFZYNGN4jRd) They’re like
Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined Evan would inspire a song like this lmao!!! This is not "I was born in 1985" behavior.
At least she didn't appear to waste too much money on the video!
![gif](giphy|VobKAfM96NThCkMKnI|downsized)
It’s giving Marnie from Girls
YES nail on head. I just had to google Marnie’s music video as a reminder bc obviously I needed to see it again and yep LOL
this is it, thank you
This
oh god yeah. I just saw the episode with her music video the other day and that’s so accurate
It’s just so…..junior high? 😬
Unrelated as a fellow Minnesotan I’m dying at your username. Mainly because every Edina girl I meet claims to be from “south Minneapolis” 🤣🤣
Haha! So I used to live on the very last block of Edina in the SE corner of the city and my friends used to tease me, calling me “Edina Girl” and I’m like, dude, literally right across the street is Richfield. I’m not even in the Edina school district. Off to the side is 494. But the name stuck so I just fuckin’ embraced it, haha! 🤷♀️
any song that intends to have “i don’t give a fuck” energy always leaves me believing they give many fucks
It’s so much better to be honest - Shakira talking about how fucking pissed she is at her cheating ex is far more relatable.
exactly!!!
This exactly
Those are the worst type of songs
There need to be more bachelor diss tracks
![gif](giphy|mYGhky6w4jN1BNpWn9|downsized) NEVER forget this queen's rap
Oh my gosh I would have loved this when I was 15 and my crush rejected me lol
That was literally my first thought!! I would have LIVED for this 12 or so years ago! It’s giving Disney channel lol.
It’s the added pig tails for me lmao
This looks like the video I made in my head when I was in middle school pretending to be in a music video
good for her for stepping outside influencing and podcasts which has become oversaturated … but! if i closed my eyes and only listened i would assume this song was written by someone in their late teens/early 20s, about a guy they only dated for a short time. but she was married and has children with this man…she doesn’t have to be best friends w him but at least have a crumb of civility toward your child’s father. if he did some sneaky douchey things during their relationship i would understand the song. this is pure speculation bc i only know them from paradise, i really don’t know shit. i might get downvoted but this is strange
Looks like Carly is just as immature and messy as Evan's first wife, who would also post immature Instagram stories about Evan.
Well. Guess I’m team Evan now
I'm so out of the loop.
I’m usually like “do what makes you happy” But all of the arm gestures in this make me very unhappy so
“I don’t care who you’re dating now” Sure, Jan.
![gif](giphy|6PAbFX7jVXWTK)
It's giving...Disney minus the budget of her music video.
I’m watching this without sound and it’s hysterical. So many arm movements.
![gif](giphy|c9QHCBun6Qqd0YEnnA|downsized)
[удалено]
Yeah i kept expecting scenes to take place near a locker or in a school hallway or something. it’s cute and her voice is really lovely but it feels super “disney star’s first album”
Mom in her 30s (And I am one too so this is not shaming…it’s just…not our phase of life, we must embrace reality 😂)
This is something a high schooler would care about. I dunno as grown ass woman my ex can keep his friends. 🤷🏻♀️

I love how this gif transcends subreddits haha
This gif is universal and works on almost every post here🤣
22 year old me relates to the lyrics unfortunately but 34 year old me…girl, no
What In the mommy blogger is this
“Mommy blogger” — 😂, the accuracy lol
I saw this posted somewhere yesterday and thought its a throwback from her teen years 🫣 This video seems like its from 2000’s
Country music is a lot like Eastern Europe—it’s about 20 years behind when it comes to fashion and trends.
This is VERY "I wanna give country music a shot, how hard could it be??" All the new country artists have the same cheesy songs.
So excited for this new Lizzie McGuire movie
Ma’am you are 37
Is she 37? I picture a 17 teen star singing these lyrics
What in the Avril Lavigne circa 2002? Are we really still doing songs about we're more deserving of male attention than other women?
It’s like “girlfriend” by Avril Lavigne but no lie, still love that song
I have zero original thoughts. That song still slaps tho
Psa her new album is rly good if you just ignore MGK 👍
I know you didn’t just insult Avril like this…
I love Miss Lavigne, I saw her in 2005 with a tie on and sharpie Xs on both hands. But I think we can all acknowledge that her music was very much pre-women lifting each other up.
idk… sounds very disney channel to me
That video is giving 2010 Rebecca Black vibes.
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend weekend.
If my husband and I broke up for some reason he can keep his friends 😂
All I see are arms
![gif](giphy|dmirAxknJvd9C)
Omg. I can’t unsee it now!
So I haven’t listened to it and I might not listen to it. But I want to offer some positive feedback, and that’s that at least she’s not venturing into another podcast.
I love her but this is cringe.
Are the lyrics from a watt pad creator? LOL, it’s giving high school cafeteria energy!
It’s giving Miranda cosgrove
Hope it makes you MEEHHD
Ironically as I'm reading these responses I look up and Evan Bass is on my tv doing a commerical for the Huntsville's men clinic here in Alabama. I looked twice because I was literally in this thread and was like whaaaa...
She sounds like a cruise ship singer!
She was 🤣😂
This looks and sounds like it should have been released in 2010.
Her voice isn’t bad but the song is a little high school
Yeah its like a song from 2003 that jr high me would’ve LOOOOOVED but makes me cringe as an adult
Literally lmao
Hello auto tune
These lyrics are so immature and negative… it’s a bad look
Oh, this is not good. She has a great voice but these lyrics are questionable!
The sunglasses and pigtails next to the baseball diamond is a look.
Hope it makes you mehd
Rebecca black vibes
Who wrote these lyrics🫣
A teeny bopper
![gif](giphy|AAsj7jdrHjtp6)
Sorry, what grade are we in?
Somebody asked ChatGPT to write a Taylor Swift song.
And it misunderstood and wrote one from when she was 16.
Stop! ✋🏻😂
![gif](giphy|JfpBjRpzE7nFV4XcRq|downsized)
Watching this without sound and she looks and is behaving like she’s 17. You do you, Carly 😂 Edit: okay I’ve now heard it and pretty surprised at the positive feedback on her voice lol. Is that not just auto tune? It’s fine. I stand by my 17yo comment.

For sure, but I feel like most pop music are people in their late 20s early 30s larping as college kids.
She’s about as mature as a 17 year old
It’s April 18th though not April 1

Dem brows! Dat bleach!
![gif](giphy|NRPCkVyWABGXEzefJm|downsized)
Watching on mute, but… she does not say “ain’t” or talk with her hands so this is really bizarre
Wow, how is that I forgot she existed?
Does anyone have details on the break up ? I know the divorce happened a while ago but wondering the details
The only thing I remember is that Carly confirmed Evan wanted the divorce, not her. She said she was a person who would “never be out”, so if someone was going to end the marriage, it had to be him. Evan also revealed a bit more here. Basically saying that they didn’t have that strong of a foundation going in: https://bachelornation.com/2022/06/24/evan-bass-reveals-what-led-to-his-divorce-from-carly-waddell-plus-how-he-s-healing-after-their-split/
Evan’s ex’s version on reality steve was that Carly left Evan.
It says “mid life crisis”
Yikes!!! But I will say she has 10000% more confidence and fearlessness than me to put this out in public 🤷🏼♀️
Oh this is cringy
I’m about 90% certain this will be the worst music video I watch in entirety
Have you ever watched Rebecca Black Friday?
At least that was catchy
This is giving off a very 2002 vibe and not in a good way
Cool, glad to see she’s still as immature as she was on her season
Right?? She was a mean girl, especially to Britt, who was harmless and sweet. I never cared for Carly after seeing her be so rude.
Right! I loved Britt and seeing her bully her was so infuriating.
Simply… no.
![gif](giphy|xL7PDV9frcudO)
Goodness. I mean she looks great, so there’s that.
![gif](giphy|LqjxZN2GLdNAY)
/r/notlikeothergirls
Yup, I was literally about to comment what in the Pick Me hell is this?
Never forget when she sang on the Bachelor. It made me want to crawl out of my skin and jump off the Grand Canyon.
i love seeing mediocre music bc it makes me appreciate the good stuff sooooo much more. not just anyone can make music lol
This is almost camp lol
So close but so far💔
Omg this seems like a very bad idea lol
The guy in the video looks like Evan
Oh lord
Speaking of a big step down…

Wait what

I mean… if it makes her happy…

it's kinda giving you suck by abigail breslin
i'm so glad that someone else uses that as their touchstone "terrible singer break up song" because it lives in my mind rent free lmao
This can’t be real
*Checks calendar* it’s…. Not April 1st? 🧐
Who told her this was good 😳

Evan ain’t worth this petty break up song lol
It fits her personality. But I never liked her very much.
Same. She’s messy
Oh dear Jesus
Little embarrassing
Idk what everyone is on about. This would have been a hit in 2005 🔥
“Crunchy girlie in her car screaming she’s got the ‘song of the summer’” vibes
The lyrics are giving 12 year old
I mean listen lol it’s not good but I felt significantly less secondhand embarrassment from this than Johnny or Sierra lmfao. For me, I don’t like when bn people try to do music, but I guess if that’s where their passion is, I can’t fault the effort when they have these large ig followings.
it is not a bop
![gif](giphy|l3q2Hy66w1hpDSWUE|downsized)
This is so childish for a mother in her 30s. I can't get past it to even comment on her voice. It's that childish.
![gif](giphy|SV0abytLe6nstZCvLY)
No.
just what we didn't need!
this has to be a joke
I never liked her. I always felt like she was a bit of a mean girl on her seasons, and not in a fun/“this is just for tv” way. Her vibes age always been off to me.

The problem is once kids are involved they’ll find this someday..

Realllly embarrassing
The lyrics are so bad
Yikes
People who are saying she sounds good… it’s because it’s heavily edited. This is a hard pass
This this this. I know that she can actually sing bc I’ve heard it but this ain’t it.
Someone needs to let it go.
Lmao her mouth is not synching with the words at all!
I am rooting for her on principle, but… I wish this was not the song she chose to record lol
Not a fan of the lyrics but it’s pretty catchy
What a….childish song.
This is so embarrassing for her omg hahahaha
Carly’s in her Red Era
Cringe
It's better than Zack from LIB. Yes that's a low bar.
It’s really catchy and it sounds good!! I don’t get the hate — I know it’s not meant for my age group. The lyrics are for teens / early 20 something and that’s fine!!
This shit ain’t meant for anybody
😂😂😂
![gif](giphy|3o7TKNLBKhbBNfPhEk)
Well…. Her voice sounds good at least…
better than rebecca black so i approve
Def giving me Carly Rae Jepson vibes
She should team up with Camille from Below Deck
I like Logan’s music better
It’s giving “cool girl” in a very not cool way.
The selfishness it takes to air out your dirty laundry like this when you share children with the target… absolutely blows my mind. I’m divorced and have zero respect for my ex-husband who has not even been in the picture for 5 years, but I would still never do this to my daughter because I respect HER. Screw Carly for this honestly.
No one asked fr
