LOL..just... dont think I've EVER seen a situation/ bi-polar/ inconsistent updates like w/ this song! lol.
Even though these wacky updates arent exactly 'hurting' album sales (just keeping it stagnant at best), I want to move on already UNLESS we're guaranteed that album sales do stay consistent (even if they stay in or around the 6k a week until it goes 1 million lol). Ok..basically dunno what to say lol. :# Very, very strange scenario/ chart run lol. In my gut though,it's more than just album sales- they just need move on and put a hotter song on radio cause I'm missing hearing that voice behind a HOT, fresh, new song!

I still love this song so much. One of the year's best, IMO.

I don't wanna get too excited as today's update may have been a fluke and tomorrow be back to negatives . On different ocasions I've seen this happen: a song stalling and starting to get negative updates, then gets a great one out of the blue, and after that it's back to negatives permanently. Today's update could have been this song's last breath on Pop or a sign of better things to come, obviously I'm rooting for the latter. I don't usually agree with the seasons thing, but for some reason hearing this on the radio in September or October makes more sense to me lol

This is a perfect song for the upcoming season, that's for sure. But I just won't accept that the whole summer was wasted when we could have been jamming to LMD or IFY all this time!!! DS had its ill timed shot, now another cut deserves it's opportunity.

I think that people put wayyyy too much stock in the seasonal-affective theory. That being said, I do think in some cases, it's a big factor, and in retrospect, it may have been better to have IFY for the summer and saving DS for release now. But the bottom line is that it's slowly climbed throughout the summer, and while it's been idling for a few weeks, I think the soon-to-be-changing weather could still help it. I have a more vested interest in seeing this do well than pretty much any other song released this year.

I'm not sure what to expect right now, but it would be hilarious if the song ends up going top 15 after even the fans gave up on the song.

At the moment, I don't really care what's going on with Dark Side. Sales of the album are doing extremely well, and if a re-release is on the cards let this flounder and flip-flop as much as it wants. If the album was nowhere to be seen on the charts as a result of this song's stagnant performance I'd be more worried.

Sometimes, I feel like this song is just playing with us. The ultimate troll. I will forever eat my words and stfu about the seasonal-theory not being true if this begins taking off. I'm pretty speechless atm cause I know one good update, with this song, usually leads to 5 days of negatives. Let's see. :o

I'll wait until this song climbs back to the top 20's before getting any kind of eager.

Maybe it's actually going somewhere? Or we may just end up with a −200 tomorrow.

It's audience updates are actually really decent. And it's built up a nice bullet too...hesitant to guess what happens next.

WNOU wasn't spinning it two weeks ago. They gave it around 40 spins last week, then added it, and now it is in power rotation (100+ spins). They are currently the only station with it in power rotation. A rest of the stations are slightly gearing upward, but the big chunk is WNOU.

I had a feeling this would be a slow but steady climber. It's a COMPLETE contrast from the last single and is different from the rest of the format right now. As a casual fan and supporter of Miss Clarkson, I always wish her the most success. :)

While its performance on Pop is I guess understandable, I'm really disappointed with the fact that it stalled just inside the top ten on HAC-- even more so than "Stronger", "Dark Side" feels like a song that station would jump on and hold onto. Maybe things will turn around but I hope RCA won't be sitting on their hands if they don't.
