Well to be fair, their song lyrics have never made much sense, so why not go there with the album titles too? Except their song lyrics have always made sense.

This song is surprisingly not awesome for Chevelle (though still good in comparison with most bands) ... glad to see it going top five and hopefully higher though to pave the way for whatever the next hopefully better single is.

4 3 CHEVELLE - Face to the Floor 1726 1609 117 4.841
Not my favorite Chevelle single, but I'd love nothing more than to see them rob Nickelback of another #1.

I'd like to see this hit the top as well, even though I don't like the song. In addition to the Nickelback reason, I'd just like to see Chevelle hit the top again. With two of their last three albums, I've enjoyed the follow-up single way more than the lead single so as OneFrayedRepublic said, I hope this sets up a far superior follow-up in prime position to have success as "Well Enough Alone" did for the way stronger "I Get It".

The funny thing is that then the third single usually tanks. I hope Chevelle can pull off a trifecta with this one.

What's also interesting is that this is the first time they've had a title track since Wonder What's Next. I'm expecting good things.

I have finally fallen in love with this song. That said, I had to listen to it a lot, as it really is not catchy in any way. It just kind of beats you into submission after awhile. Amazing how many great singles they have had that did not hit the top spot considering that this one could make it.

This is about as catchy as their last no. 1. I can't believe it has been 7 years. I agree that the follow-ups are usually stronger. My top 3 Chevelle songs are second singles.

It hasn't even reached Top 10 on alternative yet. I think it may eventually reach a peak of #5 or #6 on that format. Funny how it come out of the gate faster on alternative than active, and now it's 922 spins behind.

Funny how it come out of the gate faster on alternative than active, and now it's 922 spins behind. I think that's because Alternative has its stations that won't touch this no matter what, but most of the stations that would play this jumped on it right out of the gate. Whereas on active rock, some stations are slow, but they're going to eventually play the new Chevelle single especially if it reaches the top 5 or top 10.

The album's also a drip drip drip. It's really good too. Favorites for me besides the three already released tracks are "Envy", "Pinata", "Arise", and "Revenge".

It's good to see harder rock(ing) songs do well(ish) on Alt again. :)

I'm glad it's top 10. Is there a possibility that this song can reach top 5?

There's always a possibility of Top 5 happening. But with the #5 song being 200 spins ahead, it could take a while. I think it'll stall around #7 or #8.

Just listened to the album today. Envy is so so so good. Best build up and climax song they have had in quite awhile. Arise and Same Old Trip are immediate highlights for possible second single treatment.

I have to listen to the album more but Envy does stick out.

^ Yeah, I have a feeling it will peak at #5 or #6 on Billboard Alternative.
