Triple A radio is getting a big hand on this Alternative track, and it appears to be paying off for this Australian garage act.
I seriously seeing this becoming a sleeper hit on AAA in a manner like "Unwell", "Harder To Breathe" or "Closer To You" and eventually crossing over to Hot AC and becoming a small hit there.
Predictions please for Hot AC and AAA.
My Predictions:
AAA: #13 Hot AC: #21 (with Fountains of Wayne-esque longevity)
Sincerely, Noah Eaton

i think this can do better on CHR then AAA and Hot ac.
I think it might peak low on those two formats, if it charts.
Also, are they really cement parking or more like cement trying to be garage. fake garage.

around #15 in the AAA chart... and around the near #40 in th HOT/AC chart. I don't think it's poppy enough to crossover other than the rock formats

Definitely gonna do well IMO. It's the "IPod" song! Seriously, I think that that has helped the song quite a bit. It's done really well on alternative, I think it'll also be 15 or so in the AAA chart, and it'll hit the top 20 in Hot AC.

This could make it to around #20 on Triple A. I don't see it doing anything at Hot AC or CHR/Pop.

Is it just me or does anyone else think the guitar riff in this song sounds a LOT like Matchbox Twenty's "So Sad So Lonely"?

Looks as though Jet have met my prediction on Triple A radio (they may climb back up any moment possibly) and Hot AC is slowly picking Jet up.
My Hot AC station KALC recently added them.

It doesn't sound like a song that my Hot AC station would play, IMO. Did you read the article in the recent Blender Mag about them? The two brothers seem to be very different people. One seems to have his head on pretty straight, for a musician, and the other sound like we might be reading about him in the crime notes of the newspaper. Sounds like they're having fun. Good for them!
