Riley Green’s Steamy New Song ‘Worst Way’
Riley Green’s follow-up single to “Damn Good Day to Leave” is a steamy little number he wrote all by himself called “Worst Way.” The song is off his Way Out Here EP, which he released back in April of last year, and even though he’s just now officially releasing it to radio, Riley shares how fans have been pretty excited about “Worst Way” since he first shared it online under a different name.
The country star told us, “I’d written a song and recorded years earlier called ‘When She Comes Home Tonight’ that always stood out in my live shows, and it’s kinda that type of song. So, I think I played it and put it on social media maybe, just to video of it, and it blew up.”
He continued, “The reaction to it and a lot of those kind of comments – some inappropriate comments as well. I think maybe I had like a bag in the background and there was a big thing about whether it was somebody’s purse. You know it gave it a whole ‘nother life, so it’s been really cool to see a song do that much on its own. It’s one of the biggest moments in my live show now.”

Green gets a lot of attention from his fans, but over the last couple of years, he has gotten used to playing second fiddle to his dog, Carl, who has almost 90,000 followers on Instagram @carlthecowboycorgi.
Riley told us, “I can tell you I haven’t done an interview in the last year that didn’t involve Carl. People walk into my meet and greets now and look at my feet. They’re just looking for him. Like, I don’t even know if people come to my show to see me anymore. I had no idea what I was getting into when I got him, but he’s just a unique dog.”
He added, “I think he’s a funny lookin’ dog. I think that’s one part of the appeal, but it’s been cool. I mean, it’s a whole ‘nother world on tour that fans are really excited about. Where they used to have signs that said something about me in the crowd, now they’re all about Carl.”
