The label really doesn't seem to have much confidence for her on US radio I have no idea why. She's brilliant.

It's Top 30 on HAC now maybe when reaches Top 20 the label will give this a half-assed attempt at promo for CHR radio.

They should have pushed 'Starry Eyed' first, it's catchier. And also is basically the track which made people take notice of her where I live. I honestly wouldn't know about her or her music if I hadn't heard it on the radio a year ago and thought 'oh wow, what's this?'.
This song as good but doesn't have the same commercial appeal imo.

This is "new" under Cool New Music again--perhaps it's going to get a CHR push now that it's doing moderately well on HAC.

This song is too good not to be a hit. It's been doing moderately well on iTunes too.

Hearing this on the radio right now. It sounds like it could become a hit if given a push.

The label needs to send the Bassnectar remix of the song to radio.

She really has everything going for her to break through in the U.S and surprise smash. Brilliant content, absolute babe, and generally likeable. Once she gets her push, and I really have a feeling she will, as long as her content remains as good as it is we will see really great things from her.

This song is just so pretty. I didn't like most of her album, but I loved this song.

I believe this will be the new pop trend. This song will do fine. I feel like it will be like Fireflies. Take forever to stick but when it does world domination.

^Definitely, I remember 'Bulletproof', 'That's Not My Name' and 'Remedy' has an adds date too. hopefully she got a chance here. Btw, as much as I like this song, I still think that 'Starry Eyed' should be release here even though It was two years ago.

I cannot quit listening to the Bassnectar remix. The original version is awful, but the remix is amazing.

Are they still pushing this album? It's been out for almost 2 years now, is she planning on releasing a new one this year?

I'm glad to see it rising! Hopefully the original rather than the "Bassnectar Remix" is the version that will blow up.

I hope the Bassnectar remix is available to radio, because the original single mix is kind of boring compared to the remix. I'd have sent the remix instead.

This is the first song I like from Ellie. Wasn't feeling her previous singles at all.
