Have you all heard this song? IMO it's a possible #1 on CHR and will IMO at least peak in the 20s on HAC - it's way better than Beautiful Girls (not annoying at all, and has a great "hook" although it's copied (not sampled) from Led Zeppelin's "D'Yer Mak'er" and rearranged a lot)
I hope HAC will give Sean Kingston a chance (after so many HAC listeners didn't like "Beautiful Girls") -

I hated "Beautiful Girls", that song was so suicidal I could never wait for it to be over.
But I have to admit, I like this song! If Elliot Yamin and Rihanna (especially Rihanna) could get thier non-HAC like songs to chart top 30 here, then I don't see why Sean Kingston can't. This song lacks the abnoxious slurring that "Beautiful Girls" had, and I wouldn't mind this going #1 on pop.

I think this song will cross over to HAC but not for a long time - I think it'll be a similar pattern to "S. O. S." by Rihanna and "Hips Don't Lie" by Shakira - once it's a Top 3 CHR (and possibly a #1 IMO) HACs w/o CHRs in their markets will start adding it and it'll spread to other CHR/leaning HACs from there

Sheryl's cover of 'D'yer Maker' was great!
