They're still there, though I don't post them every single day (I actually post 13 formats around the board in case you haven't noticed). I take an off day every now and then.

Habits isn't a 'bad' song, it just gets old very quickly. I agree with some of the other members that this song might be placed in the wrong board. Then again, I don't really know what this genre to put it.

I don't really feel like alternative based off what they play can be labeled as a "specific" music genre considering the variety it plays.

They tried a rock version of "Hot N' Cold" too, but obviously that went nowhere.

I was shocked that "I Kissed a Girl" got to the mid 20s, even if it fell like a rock afterwards. I'm holding out hope that this does the same. 8D

Both of my local Alt stations played IKAG regular version. Pretty sure one of them even played 'Hot and Cold' for a minute. And yes both stations love 'Habits,'.

You know Alternative needs to improve when atrocities like this hit the Top 20 while better songs that actually deserve that position struggle at the bottom/don't chart at all.

I gotta feeling that history will repeat itself here and she will be the next big Katy Perry type artist on the charts, only better.

"Atrocities" The song is obviously great. Which are the non-atrocity songs you want to see move up? Until It's Gone, Top Notch, Smooth Sailing, Out of the Black, Who Needs You. And let's not forget the ultimate screwing over of Guilty All the Same, one of the format's all time biggest acts. Even they couldn't get a top 20 (on BB) just on name - with a history like that, they should have debuted high at least. But no, they don't get any benefit from being a core act. And Take Out the Gunman, oh god...

You see, unlike other times when I rant about how I hate how an un-alternative song is doing well because it isn't alternative... I just don't like this song - no matter what genre it classifies as. It's a bad pop song, a bad alternative song, and a bad whatever the fuck song.
