New American Idol winner's coronation single. Has a good chance of charting high on both formats.

It's not a pop song at all, so I don't know if CHR stations will play it after they give it the token spins Idol winners get right for their coronation songs after they win.
It's a good song, if a little derivative of Mumford & Sons. But Philip has already said it isn't his first single and that this isn't the type of music he wants to make. So will the label even push it to radio if Philip (who is going in the hospital to get kidney stones out next week) isn't all that enthused about performing it?

The song doesn't suck, which is rare for a coronation song. However, it isn't great, and, as everyone is pointing out, a few artists are doing the same type of thing twenty times better. It'll probably chart in response to its magnificent sales, but will radio want to bring it to the top?

This isn't going to be a radio hit. I'm thinking it'll do well digitally, and may become a very minor hit in terms of airplay. I'm thinking it'll go Top 20 on HAC, Top 20 on AAA (maybe), and scrap the Top 40 on CHR/Pop.
I actually enjoy this song a lot, and I'm surprised how good it is compared to most American Idol coronation songs.

“Home” also opened at No. 2 on the digital songs chart, with 278,000 downloads, right behind Carly Rae Jepsen, whose “Call Me Maybe” holds at No. 1 with 301,000."
Great first week!

Great sales for Philip -- 278K is the most for any Idol coronation's song 1st week sales.
Interestingly, it debuts on the BB Hot 100 at #10 -- which is just one spot higher than where Scotty McCreery's coronation song and Kris Allen's coronation song debuted (both at #11). Philip sold way more than either of those guys did with their coronation songs (Scott y sold abt 177K the 1st wk with I Love You This Big; Kris sold around 136K the first week with NoBo), but "Home" got far fewer spins on the radio than either of those songs.
Not sure what that means -- I'm assuming the big sales will result in the label pushing this hard to radio now (Home got 5 HAC adds this week), but who knows if radio will start spinning it a lot more now. Philip can't go out and promote it, since he's heading to the hospital soon for his kidney surgery.

5 HAC adds this week. Boston and San Fran are also playing it. I don't know why it doesn't have an HAC adds date though. Odd.

Strong update for Phillips. His AI is impressive too. Home might get legs on HAC after all. Not sure why it's released to CHR instead. Do they know something we don't? ???

I really don't get why there are sending this song for CHR adds. It is getting basically no spins from Pop stations. Last week it got 11 monitored CHR spins, and that was like half the number it got the week before.
On the other hand, it is getting a lot of spins on HAC and is already in the the Top 50, but Interscope isn't officially sending it for adds to this format?
Seems like Interscope is going at this backwards

Wow, what a pleasant surprise this is. Very Mumford and Sons-ish.

8 CHR adds so far (all in small markets). Someone should start a thread on this on the CHR thread. ;)

#43 on HAC and rising pretty healthily. I see this as a top ten hit there.

Also #69 on iTunes which is very good considering its limited radio play so far.

I'm kinda getting into this, and I don't usually say this about American Idol artists. The first time I heard it, I thought it was Mumford & Sons.

It sounds just like the Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeroes song of the same name.

I'm surprised this thread was at the bottom of page 4, considering "Home" might top the HAC chart next week.

With Christmas songs now dropping steadily, this slides into the top five on AC. "Somebody That I Used To Know" and "Wide Awake" are still ahead.
