Bryan released two versions of the song: the original single version and a completely different version which features just his vocals and piano. He had first released snippets of the song via social media in December 2021. Bryan also released a music video for the song containing "crowd sourced footage shot by fans" that "captures the raw and unfiltered emotion" of the song experience.


      Critical reception


      The New York Times wrote that the song "has become his most recognizable hit since his early songs." Rolling Stone editors described "Z&E's version" as "a heartbreaking single full of the genre's signature soul, stripped down to only an acoustic guitar and a harmonica." BroadwayWorld described the song as "Bryan laying himself bare, willing himself to believe there's a chance of survival for an all-but-doomed relationship."

      "Something in the Orange" is Bryan's first entry on the Billboard Hot 100, debuting on the chart dated May 7, 2022, and later peaking at number 10.
