Tied for 6th most added at HAC with 7 more adds. That would be awesome if this went Top 10. I don't pay attention to HAC that much, but when's the last time a ballad like this (stripped down piano) went Top 10 on HAC?

So I PM'd "johnm1120" and asked him about the last time a stripped down piano ballad went Top 10 on HAC and here's what he said..

Hmmm interesting question. For top 10, I think the last one was Sarah McLachlan's I Will Remember You which peaked at #2 in 1999. She also hit #1 with another piano ballad "Angel" earlier that year.

I found one that just missed. In 2005, Sheryl Crow's "Always On Your Side" peaked at #11.

So its been 5 years since one went Top 20 and 11 years since once went Top 10.

Evanescence's "My Immortal", arguably, comes close to the description given the guitar doesn't wail until near the end of the song, which only roars briefly, and the string arrangements are modest.

Namaste,

Heard this one today for the first time. Best song I've heard from a female artist in a long time. I was kinda shocked to find one Pink was the singer. Kudos to her for changing her style while still maintaining her soulful voice.

[Minor Scratch]

Heard this on the radio yesterday for the first time too. It sounds great on there.

Yesterday's update! (Since mediabase hasn't updated yet)

There's nothing behind thats going to pass it anytime soon. There's 2 songs directly above this that are falling as well. I really hope this can go Top 10! But I'm just happy its Top 20!

#120 on itunes!

To be honest, I'm surprised that this is doing this well. A stripped down, beautiful ballad is doing this well in the early summer...kind of unexpected. But this song deserves to be out there, I love it. It's one of my favorites from her. If it keeps moving at this pace, it could make top 10.

I heard this for the 1st time on my hot ac station WDVD & I must say it is very different from everything out there. It's a nice change on her part

The OFFICIAL single cover from her official site...



WTF?!

I wonder if this means they're going to do some sort of actual push? It says it will be available on itunes 6/15. ??? This IS her US website too. And its not her forum, its her official page. lol

[rince25]

I've never been a huge Pink fan but I LOVE this song. It made me buy her album, which I really like as well.


but WTF at that cover!?
