Jar of Hearts was featured on SYTYCD a couple of weeks ago and since then it's been rocketing up the Hot 100. The song is listed under Cool New Music.

Everyone seems to be all over this song right now. Am I the only one who's not too keen on it?  |

I think this song still has a lot of momentum left.

Jar of Hearts reached #13 on Billboard single sales chart. That's huge for a song from a completely new artist and had no radio support before. I don't even remember idol or Oprah did anything quite like that. Are you sure SYTYCD was the only boost? I think it had a banner on Itunes too, that could be a big factor too. |

I liked this for about a week and now I'm sick of it.  the buzz surrounding this track will probably carry it to top 20 on CHR, at least. I just remember one of the couples did a routine to this on SYTYCD one week. it DID have a pretty eye-catching iTunes banner at the time too, and tbh I think that helped it more than the initial SYTYCD exposure. |

Yeah, I noticed that the banner on Itunes can be a huge boost. some songs had a free fall right after the banner's gone. It's more effective than lots of tv talk show performances. |

It's more effective than lots of tv talk show performances. yep, in fact the song had nearly fallen out of the iTunes top 100 until she performed on SYTYCD, & then it bounced back all the way to inside the top 10. it's just interesting that they keep selling this story of SYTYCD breaking the song, when in reality this girl had support coming from somewhere other than just the show. |

It was in the top 10 of iTunes a few days ago, now it's down to like #70.

I think she probably already had some connection to the music world due to her brother before the release of this song and wasn't a total nobody to record companies in that sense. |

I like the song, but I am not really sure how well it will do on radio. Its not really radio hit in my opinion, but who knows - I would love to see it do well
They need a release date though asap before its too late

I like this song. Not sure how it would do on CHR, though. There hasn't been this kind of ballad on Top 40 in a long time.

I am absolutely in love with this song. It's been doing crazy well on iTunes too. She's not even signed to a major label is she? Love her. I'm excited about her upcoming EP too, which is out this summer.

Good for them for signing her. She deserved to be on a major label. Jar of Hearts was a self-released song, but her manager got her a sweet deal with SYTYCD, and that's how it all started for her. I was hoping she'd get signed.

This song is great, but it's so depressing. It'll either hit big or miss completely.

She just killed this on Leno, in a good way. I guess Stone Temple Pilots was supposed to perform, but she got called in like, TODAY to perform instead of them. She sung this very well.
Christina posted on her facebook that she's not putting out an EP anymore, she's putting out a full album. I'm thinking it'll be ready September/October since her EP was supposed to come out in late summer.

The "you're gonna catch a cold/from the ice inside your soul" line is so cringeworthy.

The "you're gonna catch a cold/from the ice inside your soul" line is so cringeworthy. For once I'm agreeing with the Spinkly one. I like that line and I think it works with the song well. |

It was a nice video but she makes unattractive faces while singing. And she has unfortunate teeth.
