Aly & AJ - Potential Breakup Song (explicit)

[Penelope]

Off the back of it becoming a huge hit on TikTok (whatever THAT means), they've released a mildly remixed version of it with three (3) swears included and YES I'll now be streaming it like it's a new release all over again - and YOU WILL TOO!

 

[GNL]

Is this the greatest song of all time? Possibly.

Top 20 on US Spotify! There is a lot of nostalgia for this song but I was not expecting that

That's amazing. I know their current direction is quite different but if it opens some ears to the new material that would be something.

I kind of feel like they're going to remain limited to mostly gay fans (in a CRJ way). Like all of the best artists

 

[Logic?]

A REMARKABLE pop song and a 10/10 make no mistake.

Nice to see the girls have lead songwriting credits too. Getting paid 13 years later

Primarily millennial gays n girls. It wasn't really much of a hit first time round.

IT WAS IN MY HEART

absolutely not known at all

I didn't know it until many years after the fact. it will be interesting to see how it does. it's a great song and because I'm not tied to the original this version feels much beefier.

I've been wrong (every time) before, but I think this could be an actual hit again.

It made sense for the rerecording not to stray from the original too much but I am loving this live arrangement. That banshee-esque first verse, and then it properly goes off:

I was about to come in and call you a horrible liar, it was a top 10 hit, then saw it got to...number 22.

I'm shocked, I seem to recall this being all over the place at the time. I could have sworn it did well, it certainly felt like a hit. But then I was young and had a clear memory in 2007
