Poor Hilary, she has a hit on her hands yet no one not even her team or RCA are acknowledging this :(

Apparently the album is out next month?
What in the EVERLOVING FU Ck, I had a feeling she would get lost in RCA's huge ass roster. How disappointing. No expectations anymore...

I just heard back from my RCA contact, there is indeed plans to send this to POP
Hey Josh,
The plan is to build a base at Hot AC before launching at pop. We want to make sure the song has a firm foundation before making the jump.
Best,
T
Thank god, they at least have some plan to send this to POP.

Sparks is still not Top 50 on HAC. Push this harder so we can have it on Pop!

But like - in what world is Hilary Duff a Hot AC artist/is this a Hot AC song? Don't understand this strategy at all, except perhaps they find the market easier to crack?

This doesn't sound "mature" enough to be a HOTAC kinda thing at all. This is a summery pop bop. I bet this would make some good dance remixes. Alias and Bimbo Jones please.

Her team is as stupid as Britney's how the hell can a dance song sung by Lizzy McGuire's character climb on the HAC charts quickly? SEND THE DAMN SONG TO POP ALREADY !!!!

No matter what, Hilary will never go quickly up on HOT AC radio unless she would get an "On The Verge" deal. She is more Pop than HOT AC.

This really doesn't really sound like something HAC would play, but her label probably thinks, Inoffensive fun = HAC, which is true to some extent, but the format also has a more organic sound to it, which this simply lacks.

Her label probably think HAC will play this because Tay's Shake It Off is multi week #1 there (And it redefine corny). And look, Honey I'm Good is top 10 here!

RCA should hire most of us to replace half of them, we could make them do so much better universally

In what universe is Hilary or this song HAC!?! If they're trying to say they're waiting for it to become a HAC hit before they send it to CHR, they should just come right out and say they have no plans for a real push. This is a total summer bop, and that video looks flawless (assuming we ever get it). UGH.

For true pop acts that don't already have any significant track record on HAC, they seem to need to smash on pop first before being picked up by HAC... so their strategy is probably going to hinder this song. I'd like to be wrong tho. :)

Hilary is still under 30 which makes her still marketable for the pop audience. The focus of this to the hot ac format is very strange to me.

The video is out tomorrow, based off some cryptic tweets on her Twitter.

It's like watching one of those ridiculous MTV dating/reality shows that took over the station in the early 2000s...
Hilary's "real" parts are good tho.

She's on "Ellen" today. Does anyone know if she will be performing??? I'm thinking it's new because Jane Fonda is also on and I just saw her on a couple of talk shows recently.

While I was disappointed at first with the MV, I think we all had bigger expectations than reality. My cousin saw the video and didn't have any build up for it. She said she loved it and thought it was cute.
Did she have a great director? Yes. Did she look great? Yes. Did she execute the video of the year? No.
But at least she made a video that's relate-able to mass amount of people and it relates to the song as well.
Just thought I'd throw my two cents in cause I saw everyone on ATRL freaking out. Surprisingly, it's not too bad here though.

It does look like she's performing on Ellen today. Hopefully there's a different cut of the video

Gee, could she not have added so much of the dating aspect in the video. Wanted more of the song without it being talked over.

There has got to be a second video with all of that interview/Tinder/date stuff taken out! There just has to be! Right? Right?! RIGHT?! Half of the song you can't even hear! It would be a massive mistake on everyone's part if there was not another video with all of that taken out.
Currently #405 on iTunes. We'll see what happens.
