I'd rather have "Stolen Dance" stay up there for 10 more weeks than have this hit #1. Hopefully this song gets "taken to church" if you get my drift and we can finish the year with back-to-back Hozier and Foo Fighters. You kidding? I'm hoping this can rise fast enough to take down "Stolen Dance" at the top. Or at least hold off "Take Me to Church" before the Foo Fighters charge in.

Why do I start what I can't finish?

I'd rather have Take Me to Church reach #1 than this. Neither really are #1-worthy IMO, but this isn't that good.

I can't stand this song, this is almost as bad as "Back To The Shack" as far as songs in the top 5 go. I'd love for "Take Me To Church" to clock a week or two in but I don't think Stolen Dance is falling fast enough for it to.

It's been over 5 years since there's been a #1 song I've hated as much as Take Me To Church (Use Somebody). I really don't wanna deal with it hitting the top as well, so go Alt-J go!

I don't understand the concept of hating a song. If I don't like a song, I just don't listen to that song anymore. How can you develop such a strong feeling for a song that you don't like if you don't listen to it? Unless you are being forced to listen to the song...

I like "Take Me to Church" but I'd still rather see this hit #1 and take down Milky Chance in the about 3-week margin it has before the Foos get to the top. It's not Alt-J's best work by any means but as a fan of the band I'm still rooting for them getting their first #1.

I usually have 102.1 the edge or Q92.7 (for active music) streaming whenever I'm not sitting at my computer and listen to it constantly. I switch to spotify when I'm actually on the computer. So yes, I have to deal with songs I dislike unless I go out of my way to change the station, which is a pain in the ass.

Ugh if this hits #1 this'll be my most hated Alt #1 since Fever.

"Use Somebody" is pretty bad mainly cause of the singer's annoying voice, which brings me right back to Alt-J.

There are a few exceptions, but I'm generally not a fan of production that sounds bad and outdated on purpose for some sort of 60s effect. Both Use Somebody And Take Me To Church have that.

I like the instrumental well enough and keep waiting for that turning point where I finally start to like the song as a whole, but I simply can't get past those lyrics. I'm glad the Foos will block this from #1.
