PHILLIP DESCRIBING SONG
Written by Phillip Phillips & Jon Green and produced by Gregg Wattenberg
*The first single to be released in which Phillip has a writing credit.

Quote:

Where We Came From (Phillip Phillips, Jon Green) - "I wrote this with Jon Green, from London. Such a nice, awesome guy. I showed him an idea I had, a funky guitar part, and I was thinking of making it a bigger song--but once we got to the chorus, he kind of brought it down and made it a little more mellow. And I enjoyed that. It's catchy, but lyrics-wise, it's got some good meaning to it. It's got darker lyrics."

Ehh, not as good as Home and especially GGG

lflmuselp

Nope, not happy. Get Up Get Down, Man on the Moon, Tell me a Story, and Hold On are all better than this song. as a matter of fact, most songs are better than this song. I don't think this song would work well on HAC or Pop.

Luis

Not my favorite track. Let's see what happens.

Ichinaru19

Very surprised at this choice :O Its not a bad choice in my opinion

. Get Up Get Down is an obvious choice above this one so we shall see how this does :P

J03Y

it's a good song but i mean...

Man On The Moon would've been a much better choice

MusicTalker

Hold On was the best choice.

.:Allen:.

He should've gone with Get Up Get Down or So Easy

Crank_It_Up

I was hoping for either Man On The Moon or Get Up Get Down.

GoneHome

at no one liking this choice.

I think it's just way too safe. Get Up Get Down would have been the perfect song to lead up to.

If this gets a pop release I'd be surprised, but hopefully he can reach #1 on AAA again.

ForeverNow90

The flawless "Wanted Is Love" being paid dust

This will flawp

I like the choice. I actually think GGG is the safer choice since everyone thought it would be that. I think they might be looking for this to be a "fall" kind of single :P

Platinum, here we come

This song actually has a much catchier hook than a lot of the others you have mentioned. I think it's probably their safest choice.

I can see it as a fall single, but I'm gonna keep my expectations low so that I can be genuinely surprised if this does well.

This will probably be his first single in which he'll have no support from American Idol (unless this song pulls a Home and smashes for months

)
