The new one isn't bad either, although I do have much distaste for that banjo or whatever it is during the chorus. However, the main drag about these two releases is that BOTH songs FAIL to hit even the 3 minute mark! After 7 years, her first two singles have been nothing but glorified interludes!  For me they aren't even worth listening to because just as the song has begun, it's over already.

I felt the same way but listening to All About You actually feels like a proper 4 minute song despite it being under 3 minutes whereas with CTS it DOES feel like it's song length. I guess it's because AAY sounds more..."rounded" and complete that it makes me forget that it's so short. Either way, if AAY is any indication how her album is going to sound like (A little Taylor Swift mixed with The Lumineers) then I'm all for it
