JD wrote Pretty Vegas during the show, and he was definitely the only one that performed it. I think he sang it about 4 times on the show, in both main performances and encores. It was never meant to be a winning single, but there was a great reaction to the song so they made it the first single.
INXS did write the music to the song. JD wrote the lyrics over the music.

When I first opened the thread, some said that pop would not touch this but it's not doing bad for a rock song. What's the latest? Is this going for adds or not?

I don't like this song. It's bland to me.

This song is doing very well on my local station. I'm surprised they play a lot of INXS and Bon Jovi, but ignore Bo Bice's TRT.

I don't think it'll do much here. It's been a big hit in Canada and at Hot AC though, so that's good news.

Man the album is really good Gods Top Ten and Afterglow are the best songs! Just bought the album, and I'm surprised how much I like it. It's too early for me to tell how much it will stick with me (sometimes I like an album at first but quickly grow tired of it), but so far, so good. I agree that God's Top Ten and Afterglow are standouts. GTT also surprised me, because Susie didn't impress me much during the show. But she sounds great here.

I love the album too, but they are waiting too long for the adds date on pop. In a week or so would've been perfect, but Feb? Too long. I predict it will at best just scratch into the top40 and lose momentum as the early support stations start dropping it. If it went for adds right now..... who knows? Great video by the way.

God's Top Ten is a great song. I didn't see Afterglow as a standout though.
With the album for me, the one song that just screams 'future single' is Perfect Strangers. I don't know, it seems like a future hit to me. Maybe they should skip Pretty Vegas going to CHR, since they've waited so long now.

Samples on their way to you soon! By the way, the song is still rising on pop : #64 (#70) 270 +34 ... pretty good for a non adds rocks songs. They should send it for adds soon!

It's Top 10 at Hot AC currently. Why did it never go for CHR adds?
