Is it me or is this moving slower than expected? I wish this would have been the first single instead of "I Bet My Life", I think this would have been a bigger lead single (At least on Alternative). I don't think it's moving too slow...gotta take into account the absurd amount of big lead singles being released recently...that slows the rest of the chart down.

I'm afraid this will pull a Coming of Age-Best Friend scenario, altough IBML was bigger than CoA.

They seemed to have lost steam very quickly. I was just looking at the album chart. I'm actually pretty surprised. I guess nothing has been sent to Pop radio yet.

listening to this just now, a part of the song reminded me of Erasure's "A Little Respect"

Sneaking up to the strongest bullet on Alt for a song not in its first tracking week, I think this has a chance to eventually outperform I Bet My Life. I'm personally liking it much better as well. This should have no problem gliding into the Top 10 in a month or so.

Can't tell if this is stalling because stations are still playing I Bet My Life, or if it's stalling because it's getting bad feedback

I burned out on this pretty quick. I guess they will eventually become one hit wonders for me.

This better not be peaking. Also, that audience is really low.

This might be one of those songs that sounds great in surround sound, but cluttered/jumbled/confusing on a car radio - I think that's what some of you guys said about some Naked and Famous tracks that didn't chart well (that had so many synth tracks mixed together that simple radios in cars/at work couldn't handle the sound)

It's doing better on AAA than on Alternative - maybe this would do better on Hot AC?

the Alternative top 13 looks impenetrable right now...14 could be the peak for this

the Alternative top 13 looks impenetrable right now...14 could be the peak for this It picked up 3 more adds this week, so I think it still has a chance at getting further. It just depends on whether other stations decide to keep it or drop it (I hope it's the former though). Also, you'll become a Gold member once you hit 500 posts.

Just listened to this. Thought it was a blatant ripoff of M83's Midnight City.

I think it still has a chance, albeit a shaky one since most of the Top 10 is still pretty strong. It could just be me, but I like this much more than I Bet My Life, so it's sad to see it struggling. I hope this and Little Monster can start their impressive gains again on Alt.

i agree this is better than I Bet My Life, but it doesn't get me excited when i hear it
but hey, there's always a chance this could pull a "Cecilia & The Satellite"

Also take into account that it's Memorial Day weekend, so many songs will be losing spins due to radio stations playing older hits. They'll likely gain back ground by the middle/end of the week.

I'm sad this is not looking like it'll hit the Top 10. I've started to get into this again, so I was at least hoping for Top 10. But yeah, Memorial Day might have to do with its declines this weekend. It could rebound, and I think it will, but not much.
I'll take "I'm So Sorry" or "Dream" as the next single.

Whoever signed off on the decision to release IBML first over this should be dismissed from their position.
