The former monster #1 on Alternative/Modern Rock radio goes for adds to CHR/Top 40 on March 24th.

It's about time! I think "Use Somebody" could be really huge on this format but I think it makes sense to go with this first.

Heh. Reidlos20 asked if this was eligible for the PMB Interactive Top 10 last week and I said no. Guess it finally meets a requirement.

'Use Somebody' will be the huge pop hit, but this will definately go Top 20.

Wow, yeah this is so late. It's already an established rock hit. I would love to see it makes some waves on Pop too. This and "Use Somebody" are both great.

I don't see this peaking too high, but I do see it hanging around for a while in the Upper 20's, seriously until the end of Summer or so. Use Somebody will be good this Fall....man this year's going quick.

It is NEVER late for a good song to chart! This reminds me of Stereophonic's "Dakota"... the vocalist gave me a kind of 80s vibe.

This is currently tagged as "New" in the Cool New Music section (Top 40/Mainstream) in Allaccess.

I don't see much happening for this track. This could go top 40 based on the hype that "Use Somebody" gave the band.

Don't tell me they'll try this again. They already tried it once and it did nothing, that's why they moved onto Use Somebody so quickly.

Sex On Fire is too good a song to flop though. Why not try again now that US did well? Honestly I think out of all their other singles, this has the most chance of getting any kind of follow up success. It is a pure hot song.

This song will do VERY well on the success of Use Somebody. This song is much better for CHR/POP so I see it easily going top 20 and I think it will probably go top 10. If Use Somebody made it to #2 (maybe #1?) then this can do the same if all goes perfectly.

This song is great, but I'm hoping AllAccess is just being screwy. It was kind of late to send it for adds the first time they tried it. Let "Use Somebody" play out and then maybe do a simultaneous release of whatever the follow-up to "Notion" is on Alt?

I think Sex On Fire could be a pretty decent hit.

Ahh yes one of my favorite KOL songs ever!
Coming off of Use Somebody, this should be able to do top 10
