Goes to radio the week of July 3 from Billboard.biz. With Shotgun seemingly D.O.A., this has to have a better chance.

Yeah, I guess it's official now. I do think this has a chance at charting.

More of the same. Don't see how this would do any better than "Shotgun".

Wow this song is a LOT better than "Shotgun". I'm not sure if radio will realize that or just think ppl are done with Limp Bizkit. But I think this song should have been the lead single all along. "Shotgun" was atrocious. As someone who doesn't just universally hate on Limp Bizkit, this song is pretty good. A lot of cool things going on in the track and in comparison to most Fred Durst lyrics, these are pretty tolerable.

I think it'll outpeak "Shotgun". Just release it now!
Peak Predictions: #13 Active #28 Alt.

I haven't heard this in a couple of months, but I agree with the point that this sounds nothing like Shotgun and is a much stronger single for radio.
And the "no chance in hell" option is leading in votes. Not a monster surprise.

If Hollywood Undead can hit Top 10 on active, why not?

I think they needed this song or "Walking Away" to be the immediate release to radio to have success. "Shotgun" blew it for them and was a complete and utter mistake. If this song gets an honest shot, I think it at least could do a bit better if pushed hard enough and if radio is willing to test one more.

If Hollywood Undead can hit Top 10 on active, why not? Not at all relevant in relation to chart success. Hollywood Undead are a current, hip, new band, whereas Limp Bizkit = old news.

If they released this a year ago when the had a buzz around them for reuniting and all, they would've faired better.

Well there goes their 2x streak of decent new songs. Now, back to not caring about this band.

This sounds like it'll be a way bigger hit than "Shotgun" and this recalls some of their biggest singles, but I'm not so sure it'll do better at radio hmmm. I'll say Top 20 on Active, and maybe Top 25 on Alternative.

I'll say Top 20 on Active, and maybe Top 25 on Alternative. I think you have to realize that its active rock and alternative picks will certainly be further apart...at least 10 spots and likely 20 or 30.

Clean version on this month's Promo Only. As for the poll, the most votes so far are for "No chance in hell they will ever hit again." They might be right.

Got half way through the video of this earlier today before turning it off. I forgot that I didn't like this sort of stuff. I quite liked Rollin' back in the day.

This hasn't received an adds date, no. Fred Durst did tweet earlier this month that the album was "too aggressive and too abrasive for a single" in response to a fan asking what the first radio release would be. He said that after "Shotgun" flopped strangely enough. I think they're done on radio.

Still need to give at least one listen to this...
In an unrelated matter, I have seen this video countless times and I can't get over how awesome it is:

July 3 per the original post. But it hasn't impacted much. Has this been released to radio yet?
