Why do I start what I can't finish?

wow that's really depressing, this song shouldn't have been skipped over for two very mediocre replacements. good thing I don't pay attention to Billboard and look to Mediabase for songs "true" peaks. Yeah. Godsmack I can understand because of their history, and because it's a shitty song, 1 week at the top is fine because it fell hard after. But The Pretty Reckless.... I don't get that at all. Nothing More beat both. Not even close.

Knowing Billboard, "Hater" will probably fly up over all the other deserving songs and hit #1 after 5 weeks of Pretty Reckless.

I know this guy who has a cousin who's girlfriend's dog's previous owner worked in a radio and Billboard is just a bunch of shadowy dudes sitting in a room together mulling over current trends and deciding which song's go #1 He even told me that "My Demons" was gonna hit #1 early next year and stay on top for a new record number of weeks.

K, with all the boycotting that's going on on radio I seriously don't know why Rock stations haven't just started playing Ariana Grande by now.

I credit my roommate who loves rock music. I do like stuff like this if it is quality material. You should check out "Ballast" by Nothing More. I just did, and I felt it would be more appropriate being discussed in here. I actually don't mind this? It isn't bad. It may grow on me.

I feel like Godsmack has been half-assing the last 10 years of their career, at least from a songwriting standpoint. They still work hard and go all out when it comes to touring and putting on a show.

I agree with the Everclear song being better than Korn cause I like Everclear. I also agree that Godsmack put on amazing live shows so they're no slouch in that department.
But This Is The Time is a fantastic song! One of the best to impact Active this year and dare I say best #1 behind Take Out The Gunman
