Sunshine Coast singer-songwriter Taylor Moss is making the country industry and music fans stand up and take notice with her new single, You Ain’t Getting A Song, racking up the accolades on release day, April 9.
Moss ups the ante and brings the sass with her new single, ’You Ain’t Getting A Song’, which has debuted at No. 5 on the iTunes Country Songs Chart, been added to iHeart Radio Country Australia, is No. 1 on the Apple Music Aussie Country playlist, No. 3 on the Apple Music Today’s Country playlist, and No. 3 on Spotify’s Fresh Country playlist.
You Ain’t Getting A Song is the follow-up to ’Ain’t No Girly Girl’, which has racked up nearly one million streams, and the new single looks to be following its footsteps.
An ex-boyfriend inspired her to pen the song, after he demanded Moss promise not to write a song about him when they broke up.
“I said I was a songwriter, what do you think I’m going to do?” she laughed.
“The problem was… I had nothing to write about because our relationship wasn’t overly amazing and we had very different interests.”
It appears that some boyfriends just aren’t worth writing a song about, even if you are one of Australia’s freshest young singer/songwriters.
Having road tested the new song live, Moss said ‘You Aint Getting A Song’ was already turning into a genuine crowd pleaser.
“People seem to love it because it’s sassy and to the point because we’ve all had someone we’ve realised wasn’t worth it in the end,” she said.
“Both ’Ain’t No Girly Girl’, and ’You Ain’t Getting A Song’ have strong women-empowering messages and both were crafted by the same team.
The song was produced by pop legend Stuart Stuart and written by Taylor and her frequent collaborator Jesse Emmanuel (Hinterland).
Moss said this was a message she wanted to spread through her music.
“I want girls to feel inspired and strong by this new single, but I also hope the boys can singalong and get with the humour too” she said.
And what happens if the ex texts Moss when he hears the song?
“If he texts asking if the song is about him, I’m gonna flick him the Spotify link to ’You’re So Vain’.”
’Ain’t No Girly Girl’ remains in the top 20 of the Fresh Country Spotify playlist. Taylor was the Playlist Cover Star for three weeks.
