Not sure if this is the second single or not from Turn Blue. But it just popped in the top 50 on Active.
Top 50 on Active:
68 49 BLACK KEYS Gotta Get Away 107 34 73 0.52

if it isn't the second single, they're going to have a bad time on radio. Weird that it showed up in Active first though.

It's a great, radio-friendly track.
It also sounds a bit more like Kid Rock than I'd imagine anyone from The Black Keys would want to admit.

This is the best song off Turn Blue and the perfect second single choice for them.

This is the only other good song on what is a pretty boring album, I think it's safe to say this is definitely single #2.

I wouldn't mind them only charting on Active from now on, because that album was boring as hell. They got some Lumineers shit going on there with the insomnia cure. |

I know that won't happen, but because all this crap is so boring I have no problem with them being Active's issue this album cycle. |

Gotta Get Away and 10 Lovers are the two best songs on the album in my opinion, so either of those would make for a great 2nd single.

Definitely one of the better ones on the album. I'm not a fan of anything on Turn Blue.

Definitely one of the better ones on the album. I'm not a fan of anything on Turn Blue. I don't even like this one. Or "Fever". Was there even one enjoyable song on the album? Hot Offspring remake at least. |

Splinter gets too much hate tbh, Conspiracy of One was much worse. Good songs on Splinter - The Noose, Race Against Myself, (Can't Get My) Head Around You, Lightning Rod, Spare Me the Details, Da Hui (6) Good songs on Conspiracy of One - Come Out Swinging, Million Miles Away, Denial Revisted, Conspiracy of One (4) Good songs on Turn Blue - uhh... I forgot their names... (3) |

The worst part about "Splinter" is all the songs that didn't even try not to be filler. Neocon, When You're in Prison, The Worst Hangover Ever...even Da Hui, even though it's the best kind of filler, it's still filler.
"Original Prankster" was my jam when it came out and it still is. I don't care if I'm supposed to hate it.

Alot of fans hated it when it came out and still do because of the synthesizer use, but I've always found it to be amazing. |

Oddly enough, my dad's a huge Offspring fan as well. |

"Alot of fans hated it when it came out and still do because of the synthesizer use" Really? The annoying synths were the exact reason I hate the song, plus the lyrics were kinda dumb. I came 9 years too late to the party, though. |

This is actually the Black keys I'm more used to. That Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers vibe is alive and well. A comparison to Kid Rock is also a good call.

This is their best single since "Tighten Up" in my opinion. It's one of the few songs from the new album that doesn't have the psychedelic influences the rest of the album has. I hope this is a 10 week smash hit because I actually feel like this one is worthy of such a feat.

I like this better than "Fever". It's really weird seeing this chart on Active, Mainstream Rock, and AAA, but not Alternative. I'm not sure if this has happened before.
