Huge European hit last year, now crossing over to Alt in the US. Impacts June 10, according to Republic Playbook.

This will definitely do well in the US but it will take a long time and I'm thinking it will peak much higher at Pop than Alternative.

omg It's doing really well in Australia right now too which is a good sign for potential. I can't see US success as easily/quickly (the obstacle being I don't think it fits in well enough on Alt and, Nico & Vinz excluded, CHR are really not open enough to Europe hits without a consistent push and waiting forever) but like allow that I think it should get there eventually. Regardless I'm really glad this has a US release; since radio are too stubborn to pick up Europe hits on their own (see the super obvious hit that is Rather Be [not talking about Alt here]) the next best thing is bombarding them with adds dates Also just noticed Milky Chance's album has been removed from US iTunes (it was there a couple days ago); presuming the single and/or album pre-order will be put back shortly like in other countries. Whether or not that actually matters I like that they went to the effort of it.

Interesting sound. I see this doing well on Alternative and AAA. I want to compare it a bit to a less folky Avicii song.

YES! I have shown this to every one of my friends and they all universally love it, added it to their summer playlists, etc. Really excited for people to love this. Must thank allow that for showing it to me knowing I would love it.

Glad to see this one getting a shot at US success, I've enjoyed it quite a bit. I see it maybe getting a similar pop run to "Love Me Again". Not sure what it's going to do on Alternative, probably stands a better chance on AAA then Alt. Pop crossover is guaranteed.

Heard this on American radio for the first time today! (Sirius XM count right?)
Seems the US radio edit is slightly (barely) different but still sounds perfect. More convinced than ever that this will make inroads here.

Chorus is great - verses lack spark. Should be fine here on alternative, but I could see that slowing an eventual pop run.
