current single: “DON’T MIND IF I DO” featuring Ella Langley
Riley Green just celebrated winning three CMA Awards with Ella Langey for their song “you look like you love me,” which won Single, Song and Music Video of the Year. Riley knows the fans deserve a ton of credit for the success of “you look like you love me” and their current duet, “Don’t Mind if I Do,” and he believes the CMA Awards are just as much the fans as they are his.
Riley Green – CMA award fans :39
“Well, they’ve gotta feel ownership. I mean, ‘you look like you love me’ was, you know, Ella may have known it was a hit. I certainly didn’t. I thought talking verses was a little too traditional. And I thought it was a cool thing. I thought the chorus was catchy. It stayed in your head. But, you know, we played it on the road, and it became a thing. It was you couldn’t open your phone without hearing it. And then it became a radio hit. ‘Don’t Mind If I Do,’ was kind of the same way. I had no idea it was going to be that. So, I got to watch fans’ excitement when Ella would come out on stage with me when we were on tour together and we would do those songs. And, you know, that doesn’t happen much, for two artists to have two really big songs together while they’re touring together. And we got to do that for the better part of two years. So, definitely fans have ownership in this because they made those songs what they are.”
