\n\tIf anyone ever wants to question the wisdom of putting out deluxe editions of relatively recent albums, Gracie Abrams<\/a>\u2019 success with a single off one such record should suffice as an explanation for how it can work so well. It\u2019s not as if her \u201cThe Secret of Us\u201d album had exactly done badly when it first arrived; it had debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in June 2024. But she still hadn\u2019t had a top 10 hit on the Hot 100 (or a No. 1 in the U.K. and other countries around the world) until \u201cThat\u2019s So True\u201d arrived in November to wave the flag for the deluxe version. As a song that had become a fan favorite on a few live tryouts. It quickly became the young artist\u2019s signature song.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s nuts,\u201d Abrams told\u00a0Variety. \u201cThe concept of even one person anywhere in the world liking the song as much as I do makes my heart crack open and then grow ten sizes. I\u2019m grateful and I\u2019m in disbelief.\u201d\u00a0She swore how it appeared to the world was not a calculated strategy. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t seem weird for it to have been a deluxe track necessarily, but the entire situation is blowing my mind,\u201d Abrams said. \u201cI can very confidently admit that it wasn\u2019t some master plan. This song fell into the deluxe bucket because we didn\u2019t finish writing it until after I had already turned in the standard edition of the album.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSam Riback, Interscope Geffen A&M\u2019s co-president and head of pop\/rock A&R, said that giving fans a live sneak preview well in advance \u201ccreates that uniquely special bond she has with her fan base where they feel like they get to hear it first. They\u2019re in on it first, before the passive fan may or may not hear it on a playlist. It\u2019s part of the way Gracie is always communicating to her fans via teasing songs on socials or workshopping stuff or playing stuff live. To me, that back and forth dialogue creates this special bond that they\u2019re all in this together, so when it does come out on a Spotify and it does hit No. 1 on the global charts, her fans are already like, \u2018Yeah, duh, I\u2019ve been at this party already\u2019\u201d \u2014 but are still taking a rooting interest in getting everyone else in the door.<\/p>\n
