It looks as if Elle King's breakout single will cross to pop next, with a couple adds on it so far and HITS suggesting a push is on the way.

Yes! This is #1 on Triple A right now. Still gaining on HOT AC. Hopefully it can do something on Pop.

Love this song. Bought it right after I heard it the first time. I predicted several months ago that it would be a smash.

First time hearing this, instantly sounds like a big hit. The whole track just works and it's bursting with energy. She kind of rubs me the wrong way though.

Finally! Have been waiting for this to happens on pop for ages. This song basically has every single element I want to have in one song particularly the guitar driven part except the cringe worthy music video. By The Way, I definitely can see the comparison between Meghan Trainor. I wasn't sure what it's initially perhaps in terms of vocal. Even some of the pulse members in Alternative section have been whining about this went to top 10 on Alternative as It shouldn't belong/deserve there for some reason. Well, at least for me she has more edge and less annoys than Meghan Trainor was which getting on my nerve everytime when song likes "All About That Bass" and "Dear Future Husband" hit on the radio.

I love this! I am glad to see this finally getting a push on this format. I think Elle has what it takes to be the next big thing.

I'll give her credit for the clever title but the song itself? No.

I first heard this last fall on CBC Radio and it sounded like a AAA hit to me, maybe Alternative but I never once imagined it as a pop hit. Be neat if it made it though!

Love it! Been hearing it for months. It just kind of sneaked into my brain. One day, I woke up singing it.

Love the song itself. It's catchy and I like the arrangement. Her vocals are a little much for me, though. It will be interesting to see how this fares on pop.

I was listening to Virgin radio 94.5 in Vancouver and they mentioned she is Rob Schneider's daughter. My mind was blown.

I only know the song from the video constantly being on VH1, but I thought she was late 30's/early 40's.

I love her raspy voice, the song has a country old rock vibe that i really like. I don't know if this will do well on pop, but it will be a smash in other formats for sure

When I first saw this thread title I instantly thought of Ex's and Oh's by Atreyu, weird how different the same titled song can sound
