94.9 WQMX

Whether this song is your cup of tea or not, there is no denying that it’s one of the biggest country hits of this century.  Gabby was on American Idol and did quite well, and this was her debut single.  The version of the song you know was not its original intent. Gabby had a bad high school breakup and wanted to write a song about a heartbroken young women.  But as the rewrites continued it became more and more revengeful, ending up being an angry anthem for those scorned.  This was a number one country and did exceedingly well in other formats as well with various forms and remixes.  It became one of the biggest hits of that year, or any year,  selling over 8 million copies and was loved by its core audience.  Many feel this is one of the best revenge song ever.   This is hit and miss depending on your age, point of view, and your inner being.  BUT there is no doubt this struck a sharp chord with millions and catapulted her greatly to start her career. This is the very definition of a major hit record.
