Goes for adds on March 17. What the hell are they doing with this album? They have big hits on this album, and they're totally screwing everything up.

I think radio could be done with them for now. This song will put an end to their impressive run on CHR/Pop till they come back with a fresh new album.

I'd Come for you was PERFECT. What a terrible decision. This is NOT a pop single.

It must be remembered, however, that "Figured You Out" was at one point slated to go for adds at CHR/Pop after "Because Of You" even peaked during the "The Long Road" era, yet that release never actually materialized.
In any case, however, even thinking about releasing this here is absurd.
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

The title of this song, along with the person singing it, make for a horrifying visual.

Bad choice. They have much better options.

Everyone really seems to think this song is not going to do very well. A song like this going as high as Top 20 is enough to have an impact with the younger age group. I think it could do surprisingly well. May flop, but I wouldn't be so quick to judge.

WTF?! WHY?! Top 40 won't touch this.
"I'd Come For You" is perfect and it already has a video.

Looks like CHR is taking the same approach here as they have with Theory of a Deadman with their latest album.
"Bad Girlfriend" was first serviced to rock radio stations and is now charting on CHR. I guess the same will happen with "Something in Your Mouth" unless they change their minds.
I was thinking they would have followed Hot AC's lead and go with "If Today Was Your Last Day" or "I'd Come For You" (although I think the latter is set to be released in Europe next month first before North America). With Theory of a Deadman, Hot AC has gone ahead with "Not Meant to Be".
"If Today Was..." is the current single in Canada, and although it does not have a video yet, I would expect they will probably shoot one just in time for its release on Hot AC next month, once "Gotta Be Somebody" has finally phased out, since the video for that single was released very late and is still in rotation.
I will admit though, I've listened to this one for the first few times this week and it's gets addictive after a while, but I question whether Top 40 will push this - I guess if they accepted songs like "Addicted" and they seem to be doing the same with "Bad Girlfriend" who knows...

So this is being sent to pop, yet IUSA had all that controversy?  I'm a little sad this is the next pop single, I really wanted Last Day or Come For You. |

This actually has potential to be a surprise hit on pop, but it's so much more risky than a good 4 to 5 other songs on the album. Why take that risk so soon, especially when GBS underperformed at CHR? ICFY was by far a better choice for pop than this.

Before everyone writes this off though, lets all keep in mind that Addicted was a top ten on pop.

I think that they should release this after something with more crossover potential...like "If Today Was Your Last Day."

"I'd Come For You" would have been fine enough for me.

are they trying to make this CD flop?
like seriously. GBS underperformed.
they should go with a sure fire hit before taking a risk. Or maybe they thought GBS was a sure hit.. and when it didn't go top 5 they thought they needed to do something else? Ugh.
ICFY should be the next single, IMO.

"I'd Come For You" is the next single in the UK and is been added to the big radio stations.
