Riley Green is one of the genre’s most eligible bachelors. While fans speculate about whom the singer may or may not be dating, Green fuels their romantic fantasy with each release.
During the 2025 CMA Awards, Green spiked his certified lover boy meter by a few hay stacks. With a supporting band, Green brought his crooning single “Worst Way” to a crowd of potential suitors.
“Tonight, I ain’t bringin’ no wine / Tonight, I ain’t bringin’ no roses / Talkin’ would take too much time, I think I just better show you / Just turn the lights down, let’s get right down to it / As soon as I walk in the door / I don’t wanna be out of line, but girl, I can’t wait anymore / I want you in the worst way, my hands are needin’ your hips / Want the first taste of whiskey to be off your lips,” sang Green.
As the camera panned through the crowd, it was made abundantly clear that the record, which initially appeared on his 2024 EP Way Out Here, has staying power.
