Anyway, it seems they're advertising the video on YT. I was watching a Leona Lewis vid and came across the ad:

Yeah this needs to be locked. The song is beyond dead on CHR and it's only igniting silly Idol fanwars.

Probably means nothing, but I noticed that the bullet and AI on Pop chart for TT have been going the right direction over the past few days.
For instance, here is today's update:
63 63 KRIS ALLEN The Truth f/Pat Monahan 166 229 -63 0.71
+6 spins +23 bullet +0.025 AI
Thursday's update was
-2 spins +7 bullet +0.018 AI
Wednesday's update was:
+4 bullet +0.002 AI
As I say, it's probably nothing more than a momentary blip, but I'm gonna keep an eye on it see if it keeps going in positive direction

It's not. KUDD put it in power rotation for some inexplicable reason.

I knew this would flop all along. Adding Pat was the icing on the cake, ha.

Im sad to see this song flopping like this... I thought it would've done better coming off LLWD and idol :( I guess they waited too long for the single to be released and the video was waaaay past due

All would've been fine if they'd picked a radio friendly song. We all knew this would happen the moment it was chosen as the single.

The 2 month wait after LLWD is what really killed this I think, other than it being the obv wrong choice. Hopefully some kind of promotion can come when BEFORE WE COME UNDONE is the third single and brings him back.

I wouldn't count on BWCU being a single -- Kris has dropped it from most of his sets on tour. He doesn't seem overly enthusiastic about it (don't know why, I think it's a really good song -- although I prefer it when he does it acoustically to with the full band)

I just met Kris! He was shopping at Meijer and I walked over and said "hi" and talked for a minute. He's so short!! And nice. Cool experience. I HAVE to see him now (tonight) in Dayton. :)

ehh, i don't know. yeah, it's cool that it doesn't go with the flow, but it's not like they really dig up some hidden treasure or introduce some cool music. It feels more like payola or personal favoritism than anything.

A CHR with no GaGa or K$ in the top 20? Brave! I like it!

Maybe this will rebound and end up being a fall/early winter hit! (At least I can hope ) I'm seeing him in concert on Oct. 17th and there's a chance that I'll meet him, along with Lifehouse!

I don't think this is 'rebounding' really. Since the spins are low, a station putting it on power rotation is going to affect the numbers especially after the bad updates it had last week. The numbers probably won't look like this next week.
I could be wrong but we won't really know either way until the numbers start coming in next week.

Or they simply have a mind of their own. They're an early adopter station. You'll see KUDD as the first add for a lot of songs - not just songs coming from folks formerly on Idol. They also don't need a heavy label push to play a song - they'll play what their listeners want to hear. KUDD's playlist is fresh, interesting, and they don't overplay their powers, thus giving them room for more songs. I wish more stations were that independent.

Finally heard this on the radio yesterday!
Still wish it was the album version (w/o Pat) but oh well.

When are they going to announce a new single then? Bombed on pop, bombed in sales and dropping like a stone on HAC. Time to announce a new single right?
Or do we think this is it for Kris Allen this era? Doesn't really seem like there is much point of another single with the album dead as a dodo. Somebody probably lost money on the video too.
