In my slightly biased view, I think this cover is better than the original. People who don't love the song as well as those who do might really like this version: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSMRic_9lw0&hd=1Who's that handsome young man on piano there? Haha. Very nice, very nice.

I'm guessing this will get close to Top 10, if not reach it.

Opening track from the album. Sounds pretty tasty.

The negative bullet on alternative is a little frightening, but this song is flying up active rock. It should at least be their highest peaking song there before long. No it's just a question of whether this can get a second wind and get to #1 on alternative. While I like Mumford & Sons as much as the next guy on here, I feel it's a bit ridiculous that M&S might get 2 #1 songs on the format before a group like this who's more than paid there dues. Ideally they'd both get there, but I'd prefer if this got there before "The Cave". But at the moment, it's looking slightly less than a 50-50 of hitting #1.

I think only one of those songs is going to get #1 before "Rope" comes charging in. I hope it's this though, I like it better than "The Cave".

I hope both songs get at least a week on #1. I think if the "The Cave" goes #1, it'll only be for a week, and then if Rise Against goes #1, it'll only last two or three weeks until "Rope" comes charging in.

Two days into the release of "Rope" and it's looking like neither one of those songs will beat the Foo Fighters to #1, which would be a shame. Mumford has already gotten a #1 but Rise Against are long overdue.
"Savior" is the #1 song of ALL TIME at the alternative format, but only peaked at #3 on the chart.

How ironic would it be if after "Savior"'s amazing alternative chart run and all their top 10 hits on the format, Rise Against do finally get their first #1 with "Help Is On The Way"---on active.

Haha. That would be cool... I don't think there's any chance of it happening, though. I would like to see more hardcore-influenced bands on Active, for sure.

I think it has almost as good of a shot at hitting #1 on active as on alternative just because of how much stronger the Foo's stranglehold will be on the alternative #1. Granted, Seether will also compete for #1 on active.

A #1 on Active for this song would definitely surprise me.

just found out that it'll be the theme song for an upcoming WWE pay per view called Over The Limit

I think last theme song was Drones for WWE pay per view called Royal Rumble 2007. I'm a WWE fan and I like it when my favorite songs become theme song for WWE PPV.

Any second single suggestions? I think the three standouts are "Make It Stop (September's Children)," "Broken Mirrors" & "Wait for Me."

We agree on one, so that sounds like a strong second single.

Well looking at your selections, both "Make It Stop" and "Satellite" had multiple people going for it.

Well, six songs have been mentioned. I don't think there's a really obvious choice. "Make It Stop" has been getting some airplay, I see.
