"The Long Way" is a song written and recorded by American country music singer Brett Eldredge for his self-titled third studio album (2017). Matt Rogers co-wrote the song, while Ross Copperman co-produced the song with Eldredge.[1] It was first released digitally on May 12, 2017 as a promotional single for the album.[2] "The Long Way" was serviced to American country radio on August 21, 2017 through Atlantic Records and Warner Music Nashville as the second official single from Brett Eldredge.[3]

Content

"The Long Way" is a midtempo country ballad with influences of pop music.[4] The song is "a look into what I want to find in love," according to a press release from Eldredge.[3] Lyrically, the song describes how a lover can get to know their partner on a deeper level by exploring their history and their hometown.[4] "The Long Way" was written at a time where Eldredge was looking for true love and his cowriter, Matt Rogers, was soon to be married, which inspired the romantic lyrics.[5] Certain details were inspired by the writers' upbringings while others were generalized.[5]

Critical reception

Cillea Houghton of Sounds Like Nashville wrote that "The Long Way" is a "standout track" on the album that "allows his voice to shine," and is a "real charmer."[6] Top Country also labelled the song as a highlight of the album, writing, "the emotional melodies intertwine with the lyrics to make the story come to life, like any perfect country song."[7] Taylor Weatherby of Billboard included "The Long Way" on a list of Eldredge's 10 best songs and wrote, "this love song from his latest record proves that he has quite the range -- while also giving further proof that he’s a king at writing lyrics that make you melt."[8]

Music video

The music video was directed by Jim Shea and premiered on CMT, GAC & CMT Music in October 2017.

Chart performance

"The Long Way" debuted at number 41 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart dated June 3, 2017.[9] The song sold 11,000 copies in its first week, debuting at number 14 on the Country Digital Song Sales component chart.[10] The song re-entered the chart at number 38 for the week of August 26, 2017 and has since reached a peak position of 23.[11] "The Long Way" debuted at number 56 on the Country Airplay chart dated September 9, 2017.[12] The song has sold 137,000 copies in the United States as of March 2018.[13]
