GH fans now know that Steve Burton is back taping all-new episode of General Hospital, and as has been revealed, the character of Jason Morgan will be back on your screens starting with the March 4th episode of the ABC daytime drama series.

When we last saw Jason he was buried under rubble in a cave that collapsed. But, where has he been since then? And when he makes his way back to Port Charles, who would you like to see him romantically involved with?

There had been speculation that he could reignite his relationship with Carly (Laura Wright), who before Sonny (Maurice Benard) arrived back from Nixon Falls, the two were married, or, the besties could just go back to being just that.

Carly has been in a relationship with Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison), but could it be the series will play up that Carly is now torn between the two brothers?

Elsewhere, there is Sam (Kelly Monaco), who was a great love of Jason’s life.  However, now she is with Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), and it has left fans wondering will Lulu eventually coming out of her coma be the trigger that causes a dilemma in their relationship, or could it be Jason’s return and old feelings re-emerging that might spell trouble for them, especially given that Jason is Danny’s father?

Then, there is Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) who shares a deep-rooted past with Jason and the two share a son, Jake. Could it be possible that Liz and Finn’s (Michael Easton) second attempt at a relationship will go bust, thanks to a Jason return? Finally, if not Carly, Sam or Liz, who on the canvas could you see Jason with?

Now weigh-in, who do you think Jason should be with romantically when he finally returns alive and well to Port Charles? Comment below.

Jason and Elizabeth deserve a real chance at a happy ending that combines 2 of the original familes of GH, and reaffirms their longstanding history and importance to the canvas.

sam

Sam

Forever and always
Sam and Jason are soulmates
It may take awhile but they always find a way to be reunited

Of the 3 possibilities presented, only Sam & Dante are in couple that works well on screen. Also, Monaco and Burton fizzled the last time they attempted to re-pair them.

Elizabeth & Finn keep beating a boring dead horse. Becky deserves better. The only thing that will save Finn is a Hayden return.

Since they finally offed Peter, there were a couple candidates for my least favorite character or performer. Coloma’s departure moved that dishonor firmly to CM’s portrayal of Drew. A lot of that is on the writers writing him out of character and siloing him with Carly. Is there anything Pat/Liz can do to salvage this character?

So, if Jason must be paired with one of the 3, Carly seems the most logical.

If Chris & Dan had stayed, an amnesiac Jason Morgan would have been found, thinking he was Jason Quartermaine and falling for Nina.

Hey, Nina is an option and that would completely devastte Carly. Which bring pure delight to revenge-minded Nina!

Yes, that could really stir up some things. Excellent choice.

Nina, don’t even come close to what Steve Burton’s character deserves. She needs to do everyone a favor & leave GH.

Don’t be so mean.

Well, I’m mean too,I guess Nina and Jason would make me sick to my stomach, especially if she keeps making those ugly faces as she did today, yuk!

What about Sasha? She and Cody, are boring..,

I agree

No she doesn’t need to leave, and I would assert that the brilliant, funny and wonderful Nina is too good for monochromatic Jason. Besides, I want an end to the Granny Wars. Carly needs to realize that being a fashion editor of a magazine isn’t her calling and go back to running Kelly’s and give Nina back her magazine.

Whatever you wanna think about Carly, you need to rethink Nina stole crimson like hotel from her also her husband, so Riley probably has the right to try to run the magazine whether she’s good at it or not she’s smart creative and got guts enough to do more than Nina be honest and not deceitful Nina needs to move on enough of Nina, my opinion, and if you notice she’s cooking up some more skins she’s very deceitful her part

So True.Nina is so Vindictive.

I’m really having trouble discerning what you’re trying to say here. It looks like you’re trying to assert that Nina stole Carly’s half of the Metro. That’s emphatically false. Carly lost her half due to her own stupidity. Nina has nothing to do with it. She tried to see back her half, but Carly being Carly, refused. And who the hell is Riley?

Finally! Someone else remembers.

I agree, Harry. I’ve had enough of Carly being excused for every transgression while Nina can get crucified for breaking a nail. And how about that hypocrite Michael, getting comforted and forgiven with “Aww, it’s okay, you just did it because you love your family”. Puke!

Seriously?

Just yesterday, Nina sabotaged a hotel she supposedly half-owns and arguably put all of that hotels tenants at risk, just so she could stick it to Drew and Carly.

And you can bet your soul she’s going to try to use insurance to pay for that, which would be insurance fraud, a felony far more deliberate than the accidental “insider trading” she got all high and mighty about.

It’s too bad Nina wasn’t the one getting the field trip to the Pine Barrens today.

Satan. You have a very distorted perspective of what transpired.

Sure….

Nina gets “her” magazine back. Right after Carly gets her hotel & husband back.

Nina tried to sell Carly back her half two times. And sorry, Sonny fell out of love with Carly and in love with Nina. It happens. Carly fits the role of a fashion editor-in-chief as well as she fits in her Kohl’s business fashions- meaning not all.

I agree
I am tried of Nina

Yes get Nina out of here for good

I totally agree Watros is the worst actor I have ever seen not only does she not do the character justice she doesn’t know how to add that little bit of crazy to the character like Stanford did

Donna, what you don’t know about good acting could fill the Pacific Ocean. Watros could give a master class in acting and is revered by her those who know good acting. She employs nuance, quirkiness, subtlety, awkwardness and a comedic flair. Stafford was muggy, over-the-top and basically, was Phyllis from Y&R.

I agree with you Becky does deserve better! Liz/Finn do NOT work! If Frank and the writers don’t plan to reunite Jason and Elizabeth, bring back Lucky or better yet, Franco. I loved Roger and Becky together. Roger had this energy that brought out a different side of Becky H. I loved how FRIZ became a family, much like with Lucky before the writers ruined him. Maybe the new writers can capture a similar family dynamic with Jason and Elizabeth. Bring Hayden back for Fin or better yet, Satan can you take him?

If he has memory loss, he could “jump the fence” and find true love with Brad !

This would be so fun but it will never happen. GH needs some laughs. Brit and Brad are so missed!

I loved Brad and Britt! Best thing about the Nurses Ball!

I doubt that abybody’s going to buy that sexual orientation would be altered by memory loss in 2024. Or at least I would hope not.

Even if Jason were gay, I don’t think I could picture him with Brad. He would get on Jason’s nerves more than Brenda did, back when they were “married” for legal purposes while Luis Alcazar was roaming around Port Charles.

Well.. with all the prior comments on prior stories about a lack of reality in some storylines.. let’s go with it..
And if not a memory loss Satan, tell how you could make someone “jump the fence” ? After all.. I cannot tell you how many times I have been told I am going to be visit you for being gay.

When gays come to Hell they just make the place more fabulous. But there’s nothing mandatory about it, regardless of what the Immoral Minority told you.

Freddie Mercury ain’t here because he’s queer. He’s here because he went to Heaven and got bored. Or that’s what he told me anyway.

Thank you. I look forward to singing a duet with Freddie.

Jason needs someone different. NO do overs.

Oh shut up!

Bring Brit back from the dead

Yes but they buried her.

Yes bring britt back

I’m already getting requests to release Britt Westbourne from Hell and send her back up. Don’t worry, she’s got air conditioning, but I’ll let her go if she’s needed back in Port Charles.

That said though, I don’t think Jason & Sam have had a fair chance under the Valentini regime. ReRon deliberately used his OLTL transplants to drive them apart in 2012, and by the time that was all resolved, they had literally one day together with Baby Danny before Jason was shot and kicked off the docks. And when he came back from Whiny Heiny’s Russian “clinic” in 2017, they never really were given a shot. So I don’t know whether Frank Valentini himself has some sort of hostility towards this former “supercouple”, but obviously the writers he hired in the past certainly did. The new head writers both worked under Bob Guza, so they should remember how to write Jason & Sam as a proper couple. Maybe this is the time to give them a fair chance at a reboot?

As far as Dante goes…. we all know the minute Lulu wakes up from veggieland, he’s going back to her anyway. And it’s way past time for Lulu to rejoin the world of conscious mortals.

I totally agree. Sam is the only person who accepted j
Jason for who he was. They were totally solid, until that crazy storyline divided them!

Totally Agree JASAM

Total agree to Sam

Good point now I agree with Sam and Jason as a couple again. Carly just didn’t even feel right or look right with Jason, but it would really shake things up now with Sonny back home

It might be sad to many gh die hards but my fav couple was Jason and Sam. Jason and Courtney were also my top as well.
After Jason left, I stopped watching and I am now back to watching religiously to get all back into the storylines and wow, there are many changes.

Robin always accepted Jason as Jason Morgan even though she knew and crushed on Jason Quartermaine. I say bring Robin back. Anna could use her right now

I totally agree

Elizabeth please. Her boring relationship with DocDroopy needs to end. YESTERDAY.

The “Lizard” doesnt leave until his dad passes. After that, cut him loose! He is as goofy as Adam Huss. Neither of them can emote feelings. Actors are supposed to do that!

I totally agree! Bring Hayden back for Finn or better yet, write the character and actor off the show. Three characters in and Michael Easton still doesn’t work for GH.

You know, they really make a good pair, both passive, not much emotion , Finn was with what’s her name, Liz’s sister and Anna, both passionate women and Liz’s many lovers, the best being Franco who unwillingly left her when he died, except for Lucky the others were strong, sexy men, a little much for Liz, my opinion. I think Finn is just right for Liz and I like their family dynamics.

Bring Brit back.

Yes Brit

Would love to see him and liz. Definitely not Sam. The storyline would be interesting with Carly. Maybe he regains his memories of who he was before becoming a hitman. Would be great if Robin is called to treat him and they came back together as a couple. Too bad Kimberly retired. Maybe he will come back with someone. Too bad the killed off Britt.

I wish Robin would come back to and then there would be no doubt who he would be with to me Robin always been the love of his life

I never realized Jason slept around so much

He didn’t, really. The only time he really “slept around” was when he was with Robin, shortly after he became Jason Morgan. Robin was his “girlfriend”, in every sense but one – being fairly recently diagnosed with HIV, she didn’t want to expose Jason to that, so they did not have sexual relations. Jason turned to Carly for those “needs” after meeting her at Jake’s bar, where he was living at the time.

Other than that, I can’t remember a time where Jason was anything other than monogamous.

May I vote for Ava to be with Jason?

That’s highly unlikely. Yeah, they were somewhat “bonding” when they met in Heiny’s Russian “clinic” but that was before Ava knew he was Jason, and before Jason knew what Ava had done, especially what she had done to Morgan Corinthos.

Even though Morgan is no more actually dead than Jason was, and I do expect to see him again in 2024, I don’t see Jason forgetting about this and falling for Sam’s auntie Ava.

With 2 return from the dead already penned for 2024 (Jason & Spencer), we’re not going to see Morgan this year. Supposedly, that was one of C&Ds storylines that Frank and the network rejected.

Not saying never, just not in the foreseeable future.

Yeah, I definitely meant late 2024 for the Morgan return. I’m expecting Spencer back in the summer once his Menendez project is done, but the other big return happening soon, other than Jason, should be Lorenzo Alcazar.

He’s still the only name that makes sense for running the Pikeman thing, and though it could have been a brainwashed/programmed Drew who shot up Sonny’s island last week, it’s not at all likely that Drew would be the one taking shots at other mobsters (according to NuJagger’s story) and Curtis was shot long before Drew got his brain messed up in the prison beatdown, so he obviously didn’t do that hit.

And of course Alcazar could be the one who has Morgan stashed away somewhere… just like his brother Luis did with Brenda back in the day. But they could drag that out for months and not have all the “never really dead” guys come back at once.

So, with Alcazar, Morgan, Spencer and Jason, you’re predicting 4 RFD this year? That sounds more like your buddy Ron’s writing than Mulcahey.

Well, the one advantage I have over any of the writers is that I know who actually is dead, and who isn’t. Because – let’s face it – very few residents of Port Charles go to Heaven when they leave the mortal world.

So I know that Jason, Morgan, and Alcazar were never down here, and it’s pretty much an open secret that Spencer’s absence is only temporary.

Alcazar’s return is a no brainer because it’s the only way this year-long buildup with the Pikeman thing could make any sense at all. Morgan being held hostage by Alcazar is pure unholy speculation on my part, but it seems inevitable. My own theory is that Dex was originally going to be a Morgan recast, but somebody at ABC had “inside info” that Good Trouble was getting cancelled soon, so they decided they would hold out for Bryan Craig being available again.

When you whittle out all your schtick, you’d see that all of that happening in one year is highly unlikely (especially with a skilled scribe like Mulcahey taking the reins).

Sonny has too many kids on the canvas, so there’s no need for Morgan for the foreseeable future.

Oh, from your mouth.

Too old for Jason!

Well… considering Ava has already been with Morgan Corinthos, and with Duke’s son Griffin Munro, both of whom were younger than Jason, and was married to Nikolas, who is roughly the same age as Jason… age difference isn’t really the best argument against that coupling.

Though as I said before, there are other reasons why Jason & Ava would never be a couple.

Agree, but I always felt she was too old and just cast her worldly spell on these young men, especially the youngest one, Morgan. Then it looked like Austin was succumbing to her charms as well. She has them all bewitched and bewildered, and Sonny will be next, true to form, if only for some pity sex on her part. It’s only a matter of time.

Maura West is 2 years younger than Steve Burton.

NO, a thousand times No!!!i

I like Sam with Dante and if anyone is going to come between them it should be a revived Lulu. I don’t really care much for Carly and Drew but with Sonny back in PC, I wouldn’t want to see Jason with her, either. Liz deserves better than Jason, even if it is snoozy Finn. Just not Jason. How about they pair him with Liesel Obrecht? She needs a storyline stat! A May-December love.(?)

Agreed that Liesl is missed. Jason, unless there’s a significant memory loss, would never get with the woman who held Robin captive.

Sam

Liz!

Brit is my choice too, I loved those two together. I did not like Jason & Carly together, or Liz & Jason. Sam & Jason were great other in the early years, but the last reunion fell flat for me. If Brit can’t come back ( why did they kill her?!), then someone like her would be my choice.

People forget that they killed her because she had already started on another show, as a dead firefighters widow on Emergency.

Liz it should have always been her she brought the best out in him but because of inside politics it will be the playboy bunny or the horse who does nothing but yell can’t stand the actress in this role

Are you seriously referring to one of the actresses on the show as a horse? Have some class please.

Who is the horse? None of the actresses resemble a horse unless you’re counting Cody’s co- star who lives in the Q stables.

That poor horse just stands there, being fed carrots, I’ve never heard one whiney out of him,never mind a yell.Maybe you’re thinking of the one in the straw the other day with Scott.

I hope he gets back with sam and lives happily ever after

GH should hook up Jason with Lucas Jones!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Well, even if it were possible for a guy who’s pushing 50 to suddenly change his sexual orientation, can you imagine him hooking up with a guy who is the brother of both Sam and Carly??

While the concept of Lucas with Jason is extremely farcical it would complete the ludicrousness of 1. Carly being with all three Q brothers and 2. Both Sam & Dante as well as Elizabeth & Franco sharing siblings (Leo, Kristina for the first, Steven Lars for the second) – who themselves are not related.

Don’t forget that Elizabeth was with both Lucky & Nikolas. And so was her older sister Sarah back in the day, I think (Fuzzy Devil Memory, that was almost 30 years ago)

And wasn’t Elizabeth also briefly with AJ the last time he escaped from Hell… and then was with Drew, when she thought he was Jason.

And Sam being with Sonny, Ric, and Dante over the years.

Honorable mention to Maxie & Georgie both crushing on their cousin Lucas back when they were teenagers… and before they knew he was gay. Of course nothing ever actually happened there, just a little weird that they were even thinking about it.

Satan.. I have known a few straight men who claim.. they just turned gay. No joke.. seriously married to women..then just one day.. decided they were gay..

Being a long term observer of humanity, I’ve seen pretty much everything you mortals can do with, and to each other, and in this case, what mortals can do to themselves when they live in the closet for years or even decades, because of what religious pressure, or family pressure or whatever has done to them. So it’s not a matter of them changing as much as it is just being tired of lying about it, especially to themselves, if that’s the case.

With Jason though, there’s never been an indication of anything in his closet but a spare leather jacket and his “box of pain”.

My point exactly. And to use your words ” but a spare leather jacket” what better example than the leather men of 70’s San Francisco, not to mention the Village People.. and all the leather bars… could swear I saw him hiding in the dark corners in the back room.

I’ve heard about women who’ve been so mistreated by a man that they went the other way, but guess that’s different.

soap operas for the most part are made up.. so is a lot of the banter. Always sorry to hear of any person mistreating another person.

Always be kind.

Don’t need a lesson in kindness, but thanks and was just making an observation I’ve mostly seen on TV and heard about.

The line between fantasy and reality aways appears very blurred

Please, please, someone else!!

ME!

omg I didn’t miss him at all, so I don’t really care, just please don’t turn this into the Carly sonny Jason sam show, this foursome is so boring together .

I vote for Liz just to get her out of Finn hell. He’s like watching paint dry.

At least he truly cares for and is good to her. She could do a hell of a lot worse. Then again, I don’t think she’s the prize everyone else does.

Carly

Please put him with someone else, anyone but those 3, no offense but those relationships feel very played out, Jason needs a new woman who’s willing to put up with him and the life he chose.

There you go. Someone new.

Jason is coming back for his wife Carly Morgan super couple they needs to bring them back and stick it to Sonny which he should of done long time ago. Sonny always kept them apart for to long. Get rid of him and make Jason the new bad a** mafia with Carly…lady boss. Liz n Sam are to boring people for Jason. We all been waiting for the dynamic duo back together.

No no no no. Port Charles has passed everyone one of their characters around one big Orgy. Try something different

I don’t understand the fascination with SB because he was JFP’s pet and brought him to YR and was miserable flop. First acting style isn’t what YR fans wanted so I assume (never watched him on GH) he brought over Jason to YR. Not my cup of tea but whatever network you watch you have those type of actors on all soaps. Can we Danny from YR…Yuck! or Devon…

Someone else!

JASAM ALWAYS

Someone new for sure

No one.give him a chance to get used to being back in PC. Maybe someone new

Carly

I think that Ava is available. Resurrect the Jerome Family crime syndicate!

Not the same old romances. Bring in a new girl.

Carly her and sonny have got back together to many times. It will be be a love that has been festering for years. They have both been waiting it will be a new story line at least

Jason should be with Carly

Jason could be with the face of deception! She needs action not Cody…then Elizabeth and put Finn back with Anna, the new chief of police. Nina needs to be with Cassadine and his crazy daughter.

Jason – the face of Deception? That was a good chuckle.

Cody’s storyline has stalled due to Mac’s absence due to the actor’s health concerns… but I so hope Cody is featured more.

Sorry. Sasha is way too young for Jason.

Bring back Britt. Her crazy mother is working on a poison cure. Or just bring in a new character.

No put him with someone else.

Someone else

Jason should get a fresh start&be with someone he hasn’t been with yet. Unless they would bring Britt back too,I really liked them together ❤️ &they were just getting started! Anything is possible in the soap world. JUST PLEASE DONT PUT HIM WITH CARLY!!!! SHE DOSENT DESERVE HIM!!! SHE acts like she’s so wonderful but she’s a back stabing b#*C! if there ever was one,and come on Jason…ditch Carly as the “best friend ” already!!! Shes substituting your brother for you since you’ve been gone dude!

No, I think Sam and Jason makes a wonderful couple not Elizabeth nor Carly Carly belongs to sunny my opinion which makes a great episode. I would love to see that happen. I’ve been a follower for more than 10 years that’s the reunion I’m looking for..

I think Jason and Carly should get back together!

Jason is always better alone if he going be with some one let it be someone new he don’t need go back to anyone he be busy cleaning up port Charles messes

Jason and Sam

I would like to have Jason and Carly together. I would like to have Ava with sonny, and Nina with Valentin.

Rebecca needs to stay with Fin and Dante needs to stay with Sam.

I know bring brit back for Jason.

Jason and Ava thats a no.

Britt!

I was a Jason/Elizabeth fan and Jason/Sam fan too. But I would like to see GH give Jason and Elizabeth a real chance if for nothing more than to breakup Elizabeth and Finn. Someone needs to save her from the bore that is Finn. I agree that Becky H deserves better. Stop wasting her on Finn stories. As much as I would love to see them together, I would just as excited for GH to bring back Franco or Lucky if JJ would return. #SaveLiz

I think Jason come back for Sam or Carly he still married with carly

I’d like him paired with an acting coach. Steve Burton is not acting, just playing a more toxic version of himself.

SAM!!!

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

Published

on

By

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).

On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..

In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”

GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW

So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!

FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD

As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and  and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”

Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.

So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

‘General Hospital’ Alum Chad Duell Announces Upcoming Release of His First Single, ‘If You Need Me’

Published

In a surprise move, Daytime Emmy winner, Chad Duell (ex-Michael Corinthos, GH) is getting ready to unveil a new chapter of his career in music.

The former GH star, where he played the son of Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) for 15 years, has announced his new single, “If You Need Me” will drop on Friday, June 26. The single is now available for pre-order on Spotify and major music streaming platforms and is distributed by DistroKid.

Taking to his Instagram story over the weekend, to announce the pre-save of his new single, Chad expressed, “I’ll make a full post about what I’ve been up to and my music once it goes live next week, but you can pre-save my first single so it goes straight to your Spotify once it drops next week.”

SINCE LEAVING GENERAL HOSPITAL

Previously, since his departure from the ABC soap opera. Chad starred alongside Zach Mendez in the world premiere of of Yum Yum at Annapolis, a new play written by Bruce Reisman. Duell last appeared on General Hospital on the January 21, 2025 episode.

The part was recast with Rory Gibson who debuted as the new Michael in May of 2025 during the Nurses’ Ball episodes and who has remained in the role since that time.

In an interview earlier this year on The Able Show, Duell said on his decision to exit the soap opera, “I was blessed to be part of that (show) for as long as I have, but what happens sometimes is if you’re doing the same thing, especially in a creative field for such a long time, you can get a little burnt out in a way. It can make you a little depressed, so that’s kind of what happened. On top of that, I had other things going on in my life at the time. My father passed away recently and I just needed a reset. So, I stepped away. A lot of times you have to go through some stuff to really step into that next level. I needed to kind of feel uncomfortable.”

So, what type of musical genre will Chad’s new song be? Country? Pop? Rock? Dance/Club? Something else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below, and if you are eager to hear the new single next week via the comment section below.
