This is obviously exploding on pop. Pretty normal given the sales it has

Reminds me of how people were quickly dismissing Meghan as a one-hit wonder when AATB first blew up -- and she turned out just fine. It's less that nobody's interested In her and more that not a lot of people know who she is. I'm sure by the time the song finishes its run she'll have a lot of momentum and there might be genuine interest in a follow-up. As her song gets bigger, her EP should start to sell better. Unlike OMI, she's the kind of artist that people will probably show actual interest in. It's just that her song (and public awareness of her) is still in its infancy -- even if it is somewhat generic and middle-of-the-road. To be fair, AATB sounds like a one hit wonder, it's like a second rate Mercy. Meghan was backed by the industry from the very beginning, in fact she was receiving great updates from the very beginning. I agree that Rachel has a lot more chances to have more hits than OMI, anyway being a one hit wonder doesn't depends of talent, Marc Cohn, Duncan Sheik or Shawn Mullings were very talented and they remained a one hit wonder, but at least they had great one hits, there are some people who had several hits and five years later nobody remembers them

Yeah I think being a one hit wonder is very possible for her at this point. They spent TONS of money really pushing Meghan as a star and promoting her before the cd release. She had industry backing that most won't. It was a fabulous marketing campaign, but not every artist will have that. I mean, I am not condemning her to one hit wonderdom yet, but I also wouldn't be shocked if that happened. Right now, I am sure she is happy just to get one hit though and if they work it correctly she will make tons off this to help fund future endeavors even if she doesn't get a bunch of smash hits. BTW I have listened to literally no other songs by her so ignore my entire post if the rest of her music either sucks or is undeniably amazingly catchy

As I've mentioned a few times before, Rachel is a girl and thus radio will almost certainly give her another chance at a hit, compared to the hit-and-miss pattern of boys. Plus she has no obvious one-hit wonder stigmas that acts like OMI, MAGIC!, Gotye had. Pretty much everyone knew they were going to be one-hitters from the start. Rachel sounds and looks like a good long-term investment in the industry -- Meghan's song didn't really start soaring up the CHR charts until a few weeks after it leaped into the Top 10 of iTunes.

I feel like this could very well be her only big hit on pop radio but I can see Rachel having a great Hot AC career. I don't think most of the rest of her music is particularly CHR-ready.
That being said, this girl is such a sweetheart and I want nothing but the best for her.

I see her as being more of a Colbie Caillat, Andy Grammar, Train, Sara B., perhaps now Kelly Clarkson type of artist - maybe an occasional CHR hit, but otherwise does really well on Hot AC with most singles. I think that's evident by the types of artists she tours with (Colbie, Andy, Christina Perri).

Even if she isn't a superstar, I think she should have enough momentum for another hit, even if it won't be as big as "Fight Song". It's just nearly impossible for a female act to be a one-hit wonder this day and age.

Hmmmmmm... this song is growing on me a bit, but I still find it very bland and generic.
