Debuts at #32 on next week's Alternative chart. I've never seen an Alternative song charting this high without its own discussion. I'm not familiar enough with it to offer an opinion. Just found it strange nobody had brought it up yet.

^ You never noticed that "New Low" never had a thread until recently? By the time it was made, it was already at #20 on alternative.

Decent enough song, but seems odd that a no-name is already Top 20 without having gone for adds yet. (Goes for adds Tuesday, though.)

I have yet to hear this on my station.
I do enjoy the song though.

I'm glad this is doing well, in part because, from what I've heard of their album, there are some songs even more to my liking on there, and I'd like to see them succeed as followup singles. I'm not very familiar with the material at this point, so the only thing I remember is the clear standout of what I've heard so far was "Cough Syrup", although apparently that one had gotten some airplay when it was first out, so not sure if they'd release it again.

This is alright for me - not fantastic, but a solid song - my station actually plays it a lot

They actually used this song in the background of American Idol during the auditions phase. Was free on iTunes a while ago. Totally digging it.

I liked this quite a bit after first hearing it, but after a few more listens, I got REALLY tired of it extremely quickly.

I wasn't really feeling this at first. I like it now, but I'm not completely into it.

Just downloaded their album, it's great! ''Garands'' might be single!

even though they are different, I feel like the Foster the People and Naked and Famous singles are much stronger than this song. Yet they don't seem to be getting the same attention. The End in Seattle is playing this song 55-60 times per week. I wonder if it's just because their label is pushing a lot harder than the others.
