Wild Blessed Freedom drops on September 27th. "Drown" will be the first single. www.carolinaliar.com/Very interested to hear how these guys do this time round.

I don't know why, but I can't see them doing much on Alternative despite "I'm Not Over" peaking at #3. Eh, maybe it'll go Top 30 just below "Show Me What I'm Looking For." However, I think they'll probably do very well on Hot AC/AAA. I guess it depends on what this really sounds like.

So so so excited. Beautiful World is such an awesome song. Show Me What I'm Looking For and I'm Not Over were excellent as well.

Eh, kinda indifferent about this. Their last 2 singles didn't do much for me.

I'm guessing:
#18 Alt. May change when I hear the song.

I saw these guys open for Rob Thomas a few years ago. They weren't bad. I definitely liked them more than One Republic who was the second opener.

I'm excited to hear how this goes. I expect them to promote the hell out of this album\first single. If it doesn't work out, don't expect to hear from this group again.
I really thought the last album would produce bigger hits, I was wrong though.

Just heard this, it's nothing chart-topping, but I can see this doing pretty well on Hot AC and Alternative. I assume with the background of this group, that they wiould eventually, like right now, want to have a rock band with Pop appeal...I don't think this song can do that.
My predictions:
Alternative: Top 15
Hot AC: Top 15
Pop: N&A

Not bad at all. I'll stay with my predictions above of how I think it will do. Top 30 on Alternative and maybe Top 20 on Hot AC. Top 15 on Triple A.

Are they really gonna target Alt. with this album? Song is average HAC. I can't see this charting.

I can see this cracking the chart at least. Not sure how far it'll get.

Their debut was one of my favorite albums of 2008. This song is okay. It's pleasant but doesn't really stand out. Hopefully a grower.
