This is getting a VERY strong Pop/Hot AC push in addition to the Alt push.

Finally! I was wondering when this would get pushed to alt, it's like such a good fit for the format. Hoping it smashes because I've loved this song since I first heard it in 2022.

Sounds like a John Waite AOR Ballad. The song feels more AAA to me. The synths are very Sophistipop. This is the guy from 'Stranger Things'. He went from jerk to pretty cool character. He's got decent pipes. I'll definitely come back to this.

this is some primo shit, really hoping it'll break down the door for jangle pop in this vein to cross over (something i felt confident here with you would accomplish late 2022 but alas)

Pretty interesting interview with Joe Keery on trying to stay somewhat under the radar so that the band could be taken as it's own thing instead of "the band that guy from Stranger Things is in." For Joe Keery, Djo is No Longer a Best-Kept SecretOf course, the way Keery was able to maintain anonymity as Djo for so long is a two-part equation. For starters, in 2020 he deleted his personal Instagram page—only to re-emerge later that year with a new account dedicated to the project, completely severing any immediately obvious ties between him and his quasi-alter-ego. Secondly, Keery has never performed as Djo in street clothes. In all promotional materials and at every gig, he is decked out in some kind of farcical attire, sports a fake mustache and shreds onstage in a wig that painfully contrasts with his infamous hairstyle. At first, Keery had hoped that he could keep up that inconspicuousness for a while, but it was only a matter of time before everyone else caught on—but I don’t think anyone saw such a storm of interest come rolling in. However, part of his curated, low-profile character remains intact, however, as most fans have yet to discover a secret song he, Thein and Jake Hirshland wrote and recorded together and uploaded to streaming services under a non-Djo name.
"My main intention was that, if people could hear the songs for the first time—or maybe the first two times—without the full onslaught that it was this dude from Stranger Things, then they could listen to it with an open mind. But you know, I’m not a total idiot—you’re gonna put it together, eventually."

Very soulful lyrical feel, with the synth-wave background reminiscent to me at least a bit of Cannons...and I really like this.
I've been wrong many times but I really like the chorus melodically, in terms of vocals and instruments. I think this is a slow burner with the potential of a massive top 5. Or it could just flame out entirely. I hope the former.

I'm hearing this a ton on TikTok - I think I've heard it in at least 7 random videos I've been scrolling.
Mega-hit?
Should be.

Heavily rumored to make the top 10 at the Hot 100 next week. This one is going to be added by damn near everyone at Alt incredibly quickly, it's the closest the format's had to a sure thing in a while.

This is going to be a monster by Summer at all formats.
It’s amazing that a lot of the best music on the format seems to be reproduction of early 2010’s (Stomp Rock, Early Tame Impala, etc.)
I think we’re finally seeing an interesting turn in the format.
