The stations spinning this so far: WNWW, KZHT, WIXX, KDND, WAYV, and WKSZ So that's at least six stations that are very likely to be adding this. 42 stations have reported early for CHR/Pop, none added this. However the ones quoted haven't reported and there are over 100 stations left.

Since someone will undoubtedly ask, lol, I'll remind everyone that CHR adds aren't finished until Tuesday at 6:00pm. Currently, 49 of 155 have reported with zero adds for "Dark Side." That doesn't mean its chances for getting any are bleak--that's just who have reported early so far. :)

Quick update on the UK situation.
"Dark Side" is at #71 on UK itunes. It's fallen due to the Jubilee concert that was aired earlier today, which has caused quite a few songs to rise. The Jubilee effect should start wearing off on Wednesday/Thursday. Then Kelly is on This Morning on Thursday, BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge on Friday, Loose Women also on Friday and The Captal Summertime Ball on Saturday.
The promotion slots, particularly the first 3, should help "Dark Side" climb by quite a bit I would imagine. I am also hopeful that the label will have plans to increase its sales and longevity through price reduction. They did it for "Mr Know It All" and "Stronger (WDKY)", for which it worked well for both. So I wouldn't be surprised if they did it for "Dark Side" too.

19 HAC adds. Most added. 30/92 total stations added. Includes a New York and Houston (market 6) auto-adds.
1 Pop add so far. Market rank 31. 0 plays last week so should help lots of gains. Only 51 of 155 (32.9%) of Pop stations have reported adds so far this week. That means it could pick up quite a few adds tomorrow.

We hear a lot about the UK, but how is it doing in other markets such as Australia and Canada?

its just a bit bizarre that radio isn't (be default) all over this on some level- right after a mega smash and from an established radio darling. Its not like theres this universal opposition or dislike towards the song. Most have a favorable opinion. It's not one of my favorites but its objectively a decent enough song that shouldn't be taking this long to hit :/.

Radio was still firmly latched onto "Stronger (WDKY)" and "Dark Side" isn't an upbeat dance tune, so was going to have a slower start. Also, it just went for adds today LMAO. How can you say that? Sure, if it was a month into its chart run and was getting constantly low spin gains. But saying something like that when it has just been officially released today is ridiculous.

21 adds, not bad at all for a song that showed pretty much no signs of life on CHR/Pop a couple of days ago. Hopefully next week it will have more/as many adds :)
Thanks for all the info wallace :)

If I'm being honest I'm very disappointed, but I'll give it time. I'm predicting a top fifteen on radio and a top twenty on the Hot 100.

MKIA - 2 adds before adds week + 55 adds during adds week = 57 in total Stronger - 10 adds before adds week + 52 adds during adds week = 62 in total Dark Side - 0 adds before adds week + 21 adds during adds week = 21 in total We can use these numbers for reference next week. :) Also going to note that this is #616 on iTunes currently.

^ Seems weak in comparison, but it could have been so much worse. I'm feeling pretty okay about this, especially because this seems so ready to be a smash on Hot AC.

Not going to lie 21 is fairly weak especially since we were discussing 40-50 as a low ball estimate a few days ago. However, hopefully these stations jump all over it and she gets steady adds week to week.

Disappointed with the entire initial reaction to this, but I don't know...I just can't see it not doing well, in spite of this. It's just a little too ridiculous for me to take as a serious and permanent reaction from radio. Nearly all of her other far-less radio-friendly and supported singles have done better than this has, so I just think it's going to take a bit for radio to let go of "Stronger" and give this the support it deserves. I think it will inch its way to the top 20/30 and then take off.
