u guys are delusional. This will flop!! well, one of your favorite songs,"Perfect" by Hedley was added on Hot AC on 12 July and just made Top 50 on Hot AC and you think it's a smash and feel optimistic. Why people here are delusional to hope for a song to make top 40 when was added on 3rd August and without a promo or a push from his label made Top 50 in less than a month. Go little song!

It went for adds less than a month ago. There have been songs that took way longer to get to the top 50. This has moved slowly, but always in the right direction. Yeah I agree. Although it's moving super slow it's always been *moving* and hasn't been flip flopping between negative & positive updates/bullet like many songs do (including the ones mentioned before).

It's actually featuring on Perez Hilton right now. Maybe it will help the little push the song needs !

Well, we should already have one for next week, since KLAL started spinning monday. As long as stations keep spinning it it should be fine for now. Theres something bout love that tears you up, whoa oh oh, YOU STILL BELIEVE!

It has enough stations already spinning it to move up, if they increase rotation a little bit. It's a low-spin-count #48, and it's not really acting like a top 50 song yet. Not like a terrible add week kills a song. "Impossible" by Shontelle had 4 terrible add weeks in a row starting in her 4th week. The song stalled and even moved backwards. Still survived, though.

Eh not good at all.
Bright side is that since the recurrent rules are different than they were at this point last year, this could stay in the top-50 for a bit and tread some water.

Yes, it can tread water. Other songs have done that.

Hopefully Z100 will add it though I think it will be awhile before they add SBL. They seem to be adding songs when they reach top 30. Though, I think they added Selena when she was just outside of Top 40 like at 42.

There are plenty of stations that have it still at single digits per week. If those increase it could move up some more, but it really needs more adds. Hopefully next week is better.

Pretty decent update!
And yeah, this could move up or hold strong if its current stations start increasing rotation. A few are. He's got even more radio promo coming up. His website posted a bunch of dates. And there's holes in the schedule so there's room for more. Promo goes into mid-October so far.

Well, here's what I don't understand, and this seems as good of a place to ask as any. I know most songs by non-"hot" artists get added at low rotations, but how long does it take before they typically move up in a rotation? I assume stations do some testing of their own first, but how long do they wait before they try to get feedback and how long does it take that data to come back? Having some kind of rough idea would go a long way in helping me figure out how long it takes before its time to worry about a song's viability. Unless I'm just looking at this all wrong in the first place. HELP!!!!

IDK, my thought would be that a lot of stations are probably holding back because if this does blow up they don't want to be burned out on it before most of the other stations have even added it yet. But then you have some stations that don't care and have it on high rotation anyway. Often times, the way "little" songs like this make it big are by overly supportive stations that put it on high/heavy rotation right off the bat. SBL has one of those (KUDD in Salt Lake City). Z100 used to be really good for that but they've gotten "safer" with their adds lately.
I guess it really depends on the song and the station.
