Will debut on next week's Rock Songs chart. Have not heard, but then again I didn't hear his last single more than once.
EDIT : CORRECTED TITLE

Color me surprised. I didn't think that this would even break the Top 50 here.

How'd you bypass the board filter?

I'm not overly surprised. This fits on alternative as much as Crazy did.

"Hey Ya!" was able to make it to #16 as well, during a far less inertiatic state of the format. This really shouldn't come as a surprise at all.

It's nice to see songs cross over to alternative as opposed to the other way around. We haven't had one since Crazy, have we?

I can think of several examples that are candidates for what you described, but I'm not fully sure if they meet the criteria (in other words I'm not sure if they're alternative crossovers to other genres or vice versa which is what you're looking for; also I'm not sure if all of them are since "Crazy"). They are:
Katy Perry - "I Kissed A Girl"
3Oh!3 - "Don't Trust Me"
All American Rejects - "Gives You Hell"
The Fray - "You Found Me"
Owl City - "Fireflies"
M.I.A. - "Paper Planes"
Amy Winehouse - "Rehab"

"Gives You Hell" was the only one that came to mind right away. But let's see...
Debut dates:
Katy Perry - "I Kissed A Girl"
Top 40 - 5/19/08
Alternative - 6/8/08
3Oh!3 - "Don't Trust Me"
Alternative: 10/5/08
Top 40: 3/1/09
All-American Rejects - "Gives You Hell"
Top 40: 10/26/08
Alternative: 12/7/08
The Fray - "You Found Me"
Top 40: 11/30/08
Alternative: 1/4/09
Owl City - "Fireflies"
Alternative: 8/9/09 (But...the song did seem to pick up a second wind as it later gained popularity at CHR.)
Top 40: 9/13/09
M.I.A. - "Paper Planes"
Alternative: 8/3/08
Top 40: 8/10/08
Amy Winehouse - "Rehab"
Top 40: 6/11/07
Alternative: 8/9/07
I'm fairly sure "Crazy" hit Alternative a week or two before it landed at Pop, although the timeframe for this song falls within the hole in my written chart records.
Even "Hey Ya!" was able to crack Alternative a couple weeks before it ran over the pop chart.
Another possibility, though I could be wrong, is "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" by Panic! At The Disco; I seem to remember it being sent to pop while "The Only Difference" was still impacting Alternative, and therefore wasn't released to Alternative until the breakthrough hit died down.
Not like anything has ever found its way from pop to alternative and achieved anymore than a modest success, though. I doubt any such song has ever hit the top 20.

I think it happened a handful of times in the '90s when Alternative was playing songs that would be relegated to Hot AC now. Pretty sure "Stay (I Missed You)" qualifies. |

I was pretty sure Fireflies charted at Alternative before it went to Pop.

This is more of a simultaneous rise on Alternative and Pop (as well as Rhythmic and Urban) than a crossover though.

This is good, really think it will have the exact same chart run, at same time of year as "Hey Ya" did in 2003.

I barely know anything about this, but I wasn't aware that there were two different versions. All I know is that my local alternative station is playing a version where "forget you" is the most prominent lyric of the chorus and that this station is monitored. I'm sure that its spins contribute to the spin totals that placed it on the alternative chart so I'm sure other stations are in the same boat.
Are there even two versions other than just censoring out any potential F-you's in the song? I've only heard it once, and didn't notice where the F-bombs would have been in an alternate uncensored version.

The original version uses "fuck" in place of "forget" and that's about the only difference between the two other than the fact that "shit" is also left uncensored. You can hear it and see the video here. |

Don't Trust Me started at alternative and should have stayed here. Not sure why the format, other than KTCL didn't want to widen alternative's base with such a hot act.

"Don't Trust Me" is a pop song by a pop act.

"Don't Trust Me" is a pop song by a pop act. Perfectly said. I like the song and it's catchy as hell, but it just doesn't fit along with anything else you hear on Alternative. Unlike myself, I can't picture many fans of the typical bands we see on the charts as a fan of 3OH!3! which is why hardly any stations played it, while it did great on Pop because it's exactly suited for it. |

Nah, more like Alternative radio running for the jungle and burying the hatchet the moment CHR nabs one of its songs, as we were somewhat discussing earlier. And a peak of #31. The song was a no-brainer before that.

I think this just gets old really quick - I think it's gonna have a pretty short run on CHR too - IMO it's just really annoying

??? This had a 100 decrease not so long ago. A pretty awful song, anyway.

Jeez, how many songs went recurrent this week? :O When I checked earlier, it was moving 40-34, before any purges. Looks like they've gotten rid of "Lisztomania" (finally!), "The Sound" (finally!), and "You Got Me" (already???). "Crossfire" is in its final week. "Lay Me Down" has 38 weeks and therefore has three more weeks before it must either re-enter the top ten, or go away. |
