Sam Hunt stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Oct. 28 to perform his new single, “Breaking Up Was Easy in the ’90s.”

Penned by Sam, Chris LaCorte, Zach Crowell, Josh Osborne and Ernest K. Smith, “Breaking Up Was Easy in the ’90s” is currently No. 37 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart after three weeks. The tune is featured on Sam’s No. 1 sophomore album, Southside, which was released in April 2020.

The new breakup song has Sam yearning for the days before smartphones and social media, as he croons the chorus: “I’m sick of sitting at the house / Dying on my phone / Wishin’ I was somewhere I could be alone / Try to let you go but somethin’ always reminds me / I bet breaking up was easy in the ’90s.”
