Waves
Luke Bryan
2021
Annual listening-list association, not an original-release-date field. Original release year reconciled with reviewed recording-specific Artist Essentials evidence in v3.6.
Release: 2021
Release: 2021Source checked
V3.6 reconciles the original release year with the reviewed Artist Essentials entry for this exact retained recording ID. Year precision is used; an album-first release is not silently replaced by a later single, reissue or annual-list year. Waves is a new 2021 track in the expanded Born Here Live Here Die Here program. Its own recording header and the deluxe release date are 2021; the original 2020 album title does not backdate this addition.
The large badge identifies this listening list, not a newly issued recording. Later reissues and renewed chart popularity do not replace an original release date. How years are assigned.
