Big Data's Alt chart-topper and debut single "Dangerous" is now under Cool New Music for pop. You may have also heard it synced in a Taco Bell commercial.

This needs to smash. This is pretty definitively my favorite song of 2014 so far. I would love to see this get a huge Alt -> Pop crossover like Safe and Sound or Pompeii, but that's probably wishful thinking. I'm just happy they sent it, there were some missed opportunities in the past with big Alt hits so I'm ecstatic that this one is getting a chance.

Yeah this has quietly become on of my favorite songs of the year at Alt radio, it's really catchy and has a good balance of rock sound and electronic sound. I could see this being pretty big at CHR radio.

I see this taking off in a couple of months. I think "Riptide" and "Stolen Dance" will get their go on pop radio first. IMO its fate will be determined by its performance on iTunes.

It was added by a station in Portland, Oregon. That's a good start, but I don't think it's enough to put it on the radar.

This is gonna get shunned. I can't believe it's going for adds the same week as Centuries, Take Me To Church, Riptide, and Stolen Dance.

"Take Me To Church" and "Riptide" were pushed back to the 30th. So a probable flop and potentially a #1 smash were moved. The only songs this is up against is "Stolen Dance" and "Centuries". I still don't see "Stolen Dance" smashing right away, I think it'll take time, but "Centuries" might pull in a decent week. I'm guessing maybe 12 for this.

What are their labels thinking? Yeah, check out the September 16th CHR adds on AllAccess. It's literally ONLY those 5 songs. 5 alternative hits going on it, and there's probably only room for like 2 of them because CHR needs room for "MAH ANACONDA DONT WANT NUN UNLESS U GOT BUNS HUN" and "IM SO FANCEH" |

All Access tends to not update their stuff when songs/albums get pushed back or cancelled. |
