23 27 HAIL THE VILLAIN - Runaway 457 512 -55 0.814 Strange chart run for this, which now looks to be over. Looked like it was gonna be big at one stage. "16 Cradles" for single #3. You meant to say "My Reward".

Similiar to the run of "Coffee and Cigarettes", except "Runaway" stuck around a bit longer.
Nah, "My Reward" is too much like this. "16 Cradles" is something different.

except "Runaway" stuck around a bit longer. . I'd say that's a bit of an understatement. This will probably log up around 18 weeks in the top 40 while "Coffee And Cigarettes" was on the chart for 10 weeks at the most, and it very well may have been as few as 8. Also, "Coffee And Cigarettes" stormed up a lot hotter initially like it was headed for the the top 10 in under 10 weeks. "Runaway" never seemed like it was going to fly up the char despite its auspicious start. If it was headed top 10, it was going to take more than 15 weeks.

I thought this could've potentially outpeaked "Take Back the Fear". I think these guys are gonna be the active rock version of Paper Tongues.
"My Reward" for the next single.

I'm wondering how kind each format to these bands' next lead singles. I'd give Hail the Villain a slightly better shot of breaking out on radio just because they're exactly the band that active rock radio is looking for. Paper Tongues will have more of a struggle ahead of them, but I also think that they have a better shot at joining the elite ranks if they do break through.
