they got in think two charters with the last album, and they've only really made a more "in" sound so I hope this can actually do something

I could see this being huge, and being the song the revitalizes them in the US, kinda like "Do I Wanna Know" did for the Arctic MOnkeys (though it won't be THAT big). The era suits them.

Never liked this band, so I won't really be rooting for this. Although, unlike a lot of you, I think this'll sputter out in the mid-20's; they've never had any overwhelming chart success, and this song just doesn't seem like it's going to change that. Also, it hasn't gotten too much adds in the past couple of weeks.

Also, it hasn't gotten too much adds in the past couple of weeks. I've never been too big on these guys either. This is their first single I've liked this much, and I honestly find all of their previous charting singles to be overrated, with the only decent one being "Naive". I remember when "Always Where I Need To Be" was having it's chart run and reading the top 50 every day I was always like "WTF, this song is terrible! How is it doing this well?" There really is something different about this one though IMO. |

There really is something different about this one though IMO. The 3 singles that did well here ("Naive", "Always Where I Need to Be", and "Junk of the Heart") got on my nerves. I honestly can't believe "Naive" peaked around the Top 20 when it did, lol, and if I'm not mistaken, "Always Where I Need to Be" also peaked around there, but annoyingly stayed there for a while. |

I think the most frustrated I've ever been with The Kooks is when I heard "Do You Wanna" from their 'Konk' album (Always Where I Need To Be's album) and could not for the life of me understand how that, which was by far the best song I've ever heard of theirs (until "Bad Habit"), was never a single. THAT was a song I could've got behind. |

This is one of my favorites alt singles of the year! I hope it gets at least a TOP 20.

i was late to catch on to this song, but i'm loving it...it's still adding a handful of new spins per day but w/ all the juggernauts (DC4C, Awolnation, F+Machine, FooFIghters, Incubus, Offspring), its losing ground...this is the best song these guys have ever released & it NEEDS to at least hit the top 15 before its run is over

I know what you mean. It's sorta a slow burner. I'm kinda debating weather to start charting it or not. It's loss of ground, signals that they might release another single soon.
