Got 8 more pop adds this week, so I'm hoping to see that bullet increase more!

This may be moving way too damn slow on the Pop chart, but it's reached a new peak of #17 on the Hot 100 in it's 21st charting week there!

It's doing well given no adds date or push to pop at all. :)

It's great that this song has now reached #17 on the Hot 100. I knew it would see a nice rise on the chart when I saw its sales start to substantially increase last week.
Regardless of what happens, at least fun. has now achieved another top 20 hit.

FUN. - Some Nights: 23.510 (+ 0.807)
This is starting to get bigger updates. Maybe something is finally starting to happen with this song and its airplay.
It is also currently #6 on the iTunes chart.

I think best possible scenario is that the sales remain in #5-#7 range until the airplay pick up by 1.000-1.500 daily, and as it reach the top 20 performing, doing some promo to climb to #1 or at least #2, and the airplay will have to rise quickly (I hope). Or it can just explode (what I doubt) like We Are Young and the airplay will pick up slowly, and it's iTunes position could be much lover than now. The first version could give it some longevity. Ok, I wont start complaining like I did during the digital explode of Call Me Maybe, or Fun.s 1billionth week selling +300k, that the radio doesn't want to play the songs that the public want to listen to.

^It's not radio's fault when the label refuses to push the song to the format.

^It's not radio's fault when the label refuses to push the song to the format. I realize that, but isn't it also true that individual CHR stations could add this song on their own, without waiting for an adds date? Of course. 20 of them have already done so. No big stations so far but nevertheless... And I just answered my own question.

But unless they all pay attention to the charts and what other stations do, a few stations adding a song isn't going to do much most of the time, without an adds date or a push. Could it happen? Yes, but likely won't get too far.

Exactly. This has gotten 53/155 adds on the format so far; which is one third of the panel. That's a significant portion of the panel adding the song without a clue as to whether the song will be going to the format or not. That's a pretty proactive stance.

Top 5 on iTunes now? There should be no 2nd guessing w/officially sending this to radio.

I'm over this song now but I hope it gets huge! I'll just choose my own album track as single #3 while I wait.

I'll agree that Carry On seems the logical route for a third single even though I don't really care for it.
This has been tied with Jason Aldean on iTunes for a few hours. I expect it to be #4 by the end of the night. I wish they would put some effort into promoting this song, but with them not even giving it an Adds Date I guess I'll just have to accept that this is going about everything solo. And it's doing a great job at that.

I think Carry On is the only other song that stands even the slightest chance of being a single. Nothing else sounds radio friendly at all to me.

I always found All Alright and All Alone more accessible than Why Am I The One. But honestly Some Nights is the only song on the album that I really, really like.

We Are Young grew on me, but I'm still not a big fan. The rest of the album is forgetable to me. Although Carry On may be a safe choice, I don't think it's worth releasing another single. These two singles have performed greatly overall. End the era on a high note.
