Apparently this is finally getting a crossover push after hints of it coming over the summer - one of the biggest songs (if not #1) on the Alt chart this year goes for HAC adds on October 21, according to R&R.

God no.
Don't give Alt another reason to keep playing this. If this beats Savior's record...

I love the song, but they're only going to send it to Hot AC now?

I love the song, but they're only going to send it to Hot AC now? My thoughts exactly. It's so old, but it just seems timeless, I guess.

this is way late, I don't expect it to do anything and it's really odd that they waited until now for a push. Probably will make it last longer on the Alt charts though, still hanging in at #9 there.

lmao I heard it today on SiriusXM (they played it a bit in the spring) and wondered if it was finally gaining traction.

Don't like this at all. They overplay this where I work and I'm sick of it.

This song and album are fantastic. I'm normally all for alternative crossovers - especially when they're this good - and I recognize that it takes time to build a "case" for marketing a song to pop radio. But man, if they couldn't get their act together on this 6-9 months ago, it's their own damn fault for missing the boat and they need to leave it at Alternative.
With that said, I think this song's true window of opportunity passed a while ago, but it's also better than just about every other song at pop right now. So hell, let the label push it.
