Never would've guessed six years ago she'd be sending singles to Alt. But I guess it isn't that far off from what's on the chart.

Love her. Her cover of Rancid's Fall Back Down is essential. This is more poppy and electronic, thus I am surprised that it isn't getting a pop push first.

She hasn't exactly made waves in America yet, but I heard the Rancid cover and I was hooked. I don't care how "un-alternative" this it. She needs to smash, even if this isn't her best song. |

If Chvrches can chart, so should this IMO |

It may not be her song, and I do of course like her solo stuff, but I must say my favourite Lights song is definitely "Every Day" by Ten Second Epic Ft. Lights
Good ol' CanCon alternative-leaning pop-punk band at work

I saw Lights when she was the opener for an opener for some band I've forgotten and no one's ever heard of anyway, like 8 years ago. She was easily the hottest musician I'd ever seen perform in my life, which helped me forgive her for constantly saying "My name is Lights". I found out later that her name, legally, is Lights, and that's just weird, but it's OK.
I thought for sure she had at least a minor US pop hit, but I'm not seeing any evidence of it.

This fits Alternative now. A few years ago, probably not. I agree though that if groups like Chvrches and The Broods can chart, this might as well too. I find this song better than anything I've heard from either one of them as well.

It's just this song is her poppiest, but if CHVRCHES can nearly approach the top 10, then this isn't that big off a stretch. I agree that this song in particular fits in well with Pop, but she's appreciated in the metal and hardcore scene because of how hot she is, and she's married to fucking Beau Bokan from blessthefall for god's sake. |
