Honestly I don't see this doing much on the airplay charts (maybe top 20 at best). It's likely to be very polarizing with the bro audience and could have high negatives on the callout charts, which would likely lead to a hard time on radio. Maddie & Tae have a lot of support from radio, so I think programmers will try to give this a chance, but if the research doesn't measure up SUAF won't be a top 10 record.

This one researched through the roof. So, there's that. MR

This song is awesome. Perfect song choice for a single. The lyrics are cool and this song has a good beat. It's also good to sing and dance to.

This sounds a lot closer to GIACS than "Fly" and if "Fly" could make Top 10, I just can't imagine this peaking lower or getting worse callout scores. I just don't see that happening at all here. I think this is about as sure of a bet for a hit for them as GIACS, imo.

I loved Fly and unlike many others thought it would do well at radio.
But this uptempo fun perfect blend of sass and modern country will be a sure lock for a hit.
Top 10 and I wouldn't be surprised if it hit #1.
Quality song; radio would be crazy to ignore it. Just like Kacey's songs-but Maddie and Tae have actual radio support.

So glad they chose this song as the single! I think the music video will be funny.

It is amazing to watch the precision to which the label has dropped "Fly". They pushed it out of the top 30, but just out. This way there are no spins on countdown shows when "Fish" drops but M&T are still getting airplay.
Chart manipulation is alive and well!
The early adds look promising for this tune! Excited!

Country radio should be playing the heck out of this since the format thrives on punchy tunes with sharp lyrics and tempo to spare; it's definitely in the wheelhouse of the format's core 35-44 and 25-54 female listeners, as well as a hefty percentage of 18-34 females, where country radio is neck-and-neck with top 40 for #1 in total listeners.

I see the adds coming Monday probably surpassing girl in a country song for first week adds. I hope they perform this on the cmas it would make more sense to promote this for a huge week and chart performance. Does anyone think this chart performance will rise faster than girl in a country song or not?

I can understand manipulation for inflated gains to move a song up, but the label has no control over how fast it falls once they stop promoting it. "Fly" plummeted the way it did because Big Machine kept it going for so long and radio was ready to let it go (not the other way around).

I just can't help but think that since the labels have such a stranglehold on how somgs climb, they must have a hand in how they fall.

Even though "Break On Me" will see a lot of second week adds tomorrow and "Tonight" should see a good amount as well, I'm fully expecting "Shut Up And Fish" to have a very good day tomorrow. Maddie & Tae already got 12 early adds last week and HDD is showing 5 stations that have already committed this week.

I bought this album yesterday and have to say that i really enjoy it and think these gals are very talented but, i think this is one of my least favorites from the album. I still hope this does well as I like them a lot.

It looks like "Shut Up And Fish" was the most added song on MB this week but its pretty close with "Break On Me". Maddie & Tae got roughly 40 impact day adds. :)

I said earlier this afternoon that the final numbers would be close and they were. Technically, "Shut Up And Fish" was tied for most added with "Break On Me", with 40 adds.
Still, well over 50 stations by impact day is a very good start for this single.

On top of everything else GIACS had racked up a gain in excess of 230 spins on the recurrent chart earlier this week, coinciding with a loss in excess of 170 spins for 'Fly'', which is a dead giveaway that this standout tune faces some mighty struggles on the charts from a ton of squeamish and risk-averse MDs and PDs.

I still think this song will end up becoming a pretty sizable hit. It's not going to be a fast climb but I really think that Dot Records will push this one hard and gear up for it to take off come 2016. "Shut Up And Fish" doubled its spin total on MB this week as it climbed 10 spots to #58. I don't think "Fly's" fast decline in spins is anything to worry about since that will only help "Shut Up And Fish" get more spins allocated towards its way.
I'm certainly not guaranteeing anything but they're more reasons to be optimistic than pessimistic.

"Shut Up And Fish" looks to crack the MB top 50 this week as it landed at #49 on the rolling chart today. Its gained 200 spins over the past seven days and it could end up jumping 10 positions from last week come tomorrow evening (#58 this past week).

"Shut Up And Fish" got at least 24 more adds this week on MB (the Cumulus block might be part of that), which would put it at over 90 total monitored stations.
