I liked the performance on Idol, even though it kind of sounded like he was sick a bit. Maybe too much rehearsing due to the tour coming up or something. Still, the song kicks butt, and I hope it can do well.

Well, I am REALLY glad that Outta My Head has finally managed to enter the Top 50 Hot AC chart :)
After listening to the BTS album for the past four months, I have grown to appreciate how it has done a good job of balancing the 'older' Daughtry sounds with the 'newer' ones; as well as the ballads with the more songs.
In some ways, my top 5 most played songs from the album for the first and second half for this period could attest to how the album has been produced with much thought and intensity then could be blatantly seen and heard:
Nov 11 to Jan 12 1) Start of Something Good 2) Losing My Mind 3) Crawling Back To You 4) Gone Too Soon 5) Break The Spell
Jan 12 to Mar 12 1) Crazy 2) Losing My Mind 3) Spaceship 4) Louder Than Ever 5) Outta My Head
I suppose Daughtry is seeking a sure but steady path for musical growth and branding

^ I hope that I am not coming across as being mean and being too quick to judge or anything like that - BUT I fear that Outta My Head is set to be the very first major bonafide and certifiable Hot AC flop for Daughtry :( Its movement up the Hot AC chart is excruciatingly and painfully slow....
I think that the radio DJs are plain disinterested in spinning it.
I really do not see the MV doing much help... For it is a well known fact that almost all the production values of their MVs are negligible. And don't even mention about the horrendous showing on the single Itune charts ....
I fear that my earlier prediction that it is a DOA single is gaining traction too fast:(
Prove me wrong please!!!!!!!

^ Thanks for the advice:) I guess I am just being paronoid as Outta My Head is just such a huge risk to me in terms of being push as a single!
By the way, the music video is way better than CBTY's so I can see that it would really help to sell the song .

From the music video, you can tell they remixed "Outta My Head" for pop stations. Sad they're not latching on yet.

^ AND it is even sadder when many of the Hot AC radio stations - their usual stronghold - are not really keen about it :( The spins are looking really bad (for Daughtry's standard) and only one Hot AC station has added it for this week! It might be still too early too write it off - but the warning signs are just too obvious to ignore :( Plus the fact that an official add date has yet to be announced ( which is indicative of label support) is equally telling...
On his Twitter account, Chris is unusually 'aggressive' in urging fans to vote for the MV to no 1 on the VH1 top 20 countdown. Perhaps he now knows that Outta My Head is in trouble???? Even if it does get to the top through power voting, i fear it would not really help in generating more spins or better single sales at the end of the day.... It is a good song as an album track but so wrong as a single:(
For those fans who keep supporting for this song to be a single - are you feeling the pain of witnessing the song making its painful crawl up the Hot AC chart which used to be a smooth and speedy ride up to top for their previous singles ????
I really believe that this would be the third and final single from this album!!! And I would be so mad if this is the case - as songs like SOSG, LMM & Crazy if chosen as singles could the 'life savers' which would bring much success!!!!!

As I said earlier, I was sure whatever ended up being released would be the last single regardless. Honestly, I don't think there's a song on the album that can salvage their chances at radio. The damage was really done the last era. That, combined with how dramatically both pop and Hot AC have changed even since they released LTT, and you have the situation that they're in now.
This song might have had a better chance had it been the lead single, and maybe the album as a whole. But leading off with the bland CBTY and that god-awful video for it pretty much doomed this era from the start.

^ Ha after all things considered - I concur fully with your analysis:)
I know I am bitching and bitching about Outta My Head - but I just want to let it all now with full vengeance today and shut it all up henceforth.....
Choosing this song as the follow up after a dismal performance of CBTY - is the most STUPID choice of their career!!!!!!!! It is so obvious that OMH (with its hard edge sound and without a natual musical hook) is going to experience a very very very hard time on the Hot AC chart!!!!! Especially when CBTY has critically damaged their 'credibility' with the HOT AC and AC PDs and DJs...
They should 'repair' it with a 'targeted' single such as Start of Something Good, Losing My Mind or Crazy to bring-in the ROI for all parties concerned. What are they thinking seriously?????!!!!
Honestly, I feel that the band and/or their label could be too complacent : when they produced a very cheap looking music video ( (which is the last thing they should be doing) for the first single for this era:( which was such a turn off for many of their fans!! And therefore contributing to breaking their No 1 run on the VH1 countdown!
And now choosing OMH as the make or break single which make it easier for the Hot AC DJs to not spin it!!! And very soon these DJs would stop spinning those past hits when they start to write them off!
It's like they are trying very hard to kill off any remaining radio presence !!!!
What are they trying to prove for goodness sake???In some way, it could be a display of arrogant on their part that the Hot AC radio would continue to support their singles? If so, nothing is cast in stone!
I feel so sad for this (IMO) top notched band and for this album which has so many great songs (both album tracks and potential singles):(
End of the airing of my own petty grumbling :) I have decided to move on for this issue.,,

One thing to note though is that he got very little promo compared to his other idol RCA peers.

One thing to note though is that he got very little promo compared to his other idol RCA peers. Well, to be honest I think the label was right in not vesting a lot of money in this album. The truth is that this sound is now very dated. Heck, even Nickleback basically flopped on HotAC and Pop this time around. It is what it is. Daughtry was hot for a few years coming up massive exposure on AI combined with a sound that was popular at the time. And people on here probably won't agree with me but I don't see either act being creative or musical enough to change up their sound...to evolve their sound into something new and fresh while still sounding like themselves. I'm not suggesting doing what Train has done because I don't respect that band at all but there's got to be a middle ground somewhere here. We'll see if Matchbox Twenty finds it after being away for years.

^ Could not resist putting in some words: The upcoming tv performance of OMH is completely needless! LoL- the single has stalled on the Hot AC chart and is actually dying now....
Now when I look at the name of this song - the phrase ' retard' always come to mind ....
Next single please!!! Or is there? LOL

"Outta My Head" and interview on "Live with Kelly"
This is an AWESOME song! I love it more every day! And Chris has been so amazing lately in concert and in live appearances. Better than ever, IMHO. Hope it pays off for him.

Seriously :) I am heavily invested in Daughtry - so how they are performing will affect me! I just want the very best for them. Which is why I am very sad and angry when they opted to push OMH as the single for I know it is going to be a killer. So excuse for all my ventings. Can you tell me with straight face that this single is performing just ok?

Regardless, once OMH has ran its doomed course- they need to release (if it is even possible ) Start Something Good as a Hot AC single to salvage whatever that is still remaining .....

I didn't expect this band to fade this fast after the smash that was their debut album.
They aren't even benefitting from their HAC-leaning sound for sales, and they alienated their rock fanbase. It's a shame
