I remember being like "WTF" when "Global Concepts" charted. It's a typical house/EDM song.

I actually really enjoyed Global Concepts. DeLong has a really cool live set too. Saw open for TOP last year. Thought the traditional drums/vocals set him apart from the edm label, allowing him to fit in on alt. Hopefully the song is good.

Really liked "Global Concepts" and "Happy," so I'm definitely looking forward to this.

I didn't know the singer of blink-182 was going solo.

Here's the official audio, since it hasn't been posted here yet. Not as good as "Global Concepts" but I'm glad he's finally getting a second hit.

It's not too terrible, but honestly I find this style of Alternative Indie songs more effective with female lead vocals.

This is the type of electronic that should be on Alt, but it's not that great of a song.

This has rapidly and surprisingly grown on me. Though I can get the criticisms of it sounding simpler than "Global Concepts", it's ridiculously catchy and I wouldn't mind seeing it hit Top 10. Alternative radio seems to be really digging it so far so that might not be out of the question.

This and "Global Concepts" are quickly becoming two of my favorites. I'm glad this is having success here, and I hope it can continue to do so.

I'm just glad that one and "Cecilia and The Satellite" jumped over "Budapest"; which I hope fizzles out sooner than later.

The Edge added this...looks like this'll could a random big alternative hit in Canada a la "Budapest." The difference being this is actually pretty good.

I get some Ben Gibbard vibes in the pre chorus.

So this has the strongest bullet on Alternative now, which is pretty surprising. With all of the songs that need to clear out of the Top 10, if this keeps up the pace it has set so far Top 5 should be reachable.

This guy is surprisingly a very strong singer, sounds the same live as his studio recordings

I love this song & it's about to climb to the top spot on my personal chart. I'm not sure if this song would fit on any other format other than Alternative, so I'm seriously hoping it can make the top 10. I guess it all depends on whether Hozier drops faster than DCFC rises up (keeping my fingers crossed)
