Iβm not one to complain multiple times about songs I donβt care for, but this is getting ridiculous. Sales suck, streaming is nonexistent, callouts are okay at best. There is literally no reason for this to be getting such huge gains or even still be gaining at all I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with you but, where this song has been out so long was there a time when it did sell and stream well beyond it's Audience at radio??? How are call outs btw to anyone who knows? If there good maybe radio doesn't care because their still trying to figure out wheteher to look at streaming or sales??? Who knows why this is hanging on. Perhaps no one is that offended by it?? These have been the % improvements in Positive/Favorites/Negatives/Burn Rate (average of the 4) in response to % change in familiarity in the last few weeks -2.63%; +0.32% familiarity -1.76%; +0.43% familiarity +1.25%; +0.54% familiarity -0.01%; -0.22% familiarity +0.16%; -0.75% familiarity -3.20%; +1.50% familiarity +0.36%; +1.16 familiarity Total: -5.83%; +2.98% familiarity So on average the callouts have been slowly getting worse. Considering how high the familiarity is they're really not that impressive since high familiarity usually translates to better callouts. Highest burn rate among songs that are gaining spins, and relatively high negatives.Β

Is there something polarizing about this? Something that is just too abrasive or annoying to make it not good?
I guess I don't get the opposition to it. It's not the best song ever, but.... Radio really isn't about what's earth-shatteringly great, it's about what works without turning people off. It's a solid, charming pop song, imo.

Thereβs very little actual melody. The chorus is mostly just repetition of the title, but I struggle to even call it singing. Itβs almost like heβs just talking to us, and I donβt find that exciting or enjoyable to listen to. The drop is good, but itβs not enough to justify the near lack of anything before it. Even just a more interesting beat during the verses and chorus couldβve helped. That said, I respect Lauv. He literally made the beat with his mouth, which is damn impressive, and I loved his vocals in βA Different Wayβ. This one just falls short for me.

Personally it's one of my favorite Lauv songs, aside from Chasing Fire and Breathe. (He should really send these once ILMB has peaked)

This song just scored 38 weeks in the Top 40. It will hold the title of "2017 song with the most weeks in the Top 40". I think this will reach β₯40 weeks.

You should write a tale about this song, just as you did with Max's "Lights Down Low".

LOL I heard this on the radio on my drive home and before the song started, the "new music" radio station tag played lmao a) They only play MB Top 10 non-stop. (Typical) b) They think they are STILL in 2017. (Just Play it and pretend you were playing for over 9 months, no need for NEW MUSIC tags) c) Some worker from the station miserably confused Lauv with Shawn Mendes and thought "I Like Me Better" was his next single. (Since "In My Blood" is already dying in Pop...)

What? lol. It's a Canadian Hot AC station.
I do find a lot of songs by random newcomers that take a while to climb the chart take a while to hit the airwaves here.

Haha I might once it's run is finally over in Summer 2020 Oh!, so you are the author of βLights Down Lowβ - The Story of the Unstoppable Song. What a nice story! What a best seller! If this reaches #1, consider making a movie instead!

I'm surprised. Why did it have to die just when Sit Next To Me is dying as well?
