I about fell out of my chair when I read this. Best song of 09 in my book.
But wait, it's only their Christian single? Buzzzzzzzz killllllllll. I'm hoping this gets released after "Hero" instead of the rumored "It's Not Me, It's You."

I remember this song being used in a promo for One Life To Live.
speaking of "Hero", now that "Monster" is slowing down, they should release "Hero" to Rock radio in a matter of weeks.

I'm expecting this to be a bigger single than Monster, possibly a re-entry into the Hot 100.

Bigger than "Monster"? That would mean top 5 on Active, I don't think so.

I think this song would be huge if it could have been the lead single off the next album. I think it will still do very well considering it's a third single. I would say that ultimately matching the success of "Hero" on active should be feasible. I imagine that this song will do very well at RateTheMusic.

I think it'll do much better than Monster on Alt and Equal it on Active, it's by far the most solid song from the record and unlike Monster and Hero can't really be accused of plagarism by the Linkin park and TDG fans.

Oh Most definatly, but it was rather annoying having people first accusing the band of Plagarisim for Monster's TDG like themes and then Hero's Linkin Park like intro. Awake And Alive is a song that is so utterly Skillet it could be mistaken for little else and for that reason I'm expecting it to be a huge hit.

I'm disappointed in the stuff from their new album, really. The more they go for "mainstream" crossover, the more they musically go through the motions.

#44 on active and the second highest debuet this week. Expecting this one to rise much faster then "Hero" which spent almost month charting just outside the top 40.

Top 30. This single is really taking off. It's only real contentor at the moment is the new A7F single.

Isn't it a wee bit premature to say that? There are songs that have had small negative bullets that have turned it around and motored up the chart before. "Porn Star Dancing" had a negative bullet for a couple of days in the low 20s if I recall. Look where it is now (unfortunately). I don't think this song is done yet.

3 top 20s is a great accomplishment for a Christian rock band

It's lost 5 stations this week which is never good for a single that's gone for adds as recently as this has.

Do you know how many times those 5 stations had played it the previous week? For all you know, those were test spins or spins on a nationally syndicated rock show like Rockline or Hard Drive XL w/ Lou Brutus that were then allowing the song to get airplay on 5 stations that haven't added the song yet. Granted, I did just get a RateTheMusic survey for the next Skillet single for active rock, so maybe the label is moving on already. Terrible choice if so...they need to milk "Awake And Alive" for everything it's worth because the four songs in that survey were all boring at best and awful at worst. They also had nowhere near the hit potential on active rock that this has.

I'm suprised that they're looking for another already. I expected that they'd release one of the softer songs on the album such as Lucy or Believe to Pop Radio next. I think Lucy has the potential to break the top 40 in the hot 100.

Well they did have another RateTheMusic survey only part of the way through "Hero"'s run on the chart. And that bullet has rebounded today up to -3. Could be positive soon.
