Why not, it sounds like a Mumford and Sons song, and they are played on alternative radio Read the thread for this under the Alternative/Active Rock/AAA folder. Almost the entire thread is an argument as to whether this song belongs on Alternative or not. I read it, and i find the argument quite snob. It's like when some people spend months praising an alternative song and when the song finds success on pop charts they doesn't like it anymore or even worse, the band or singer sells himself. Some of the songs on alternative chart are totally pop, It's time is pop, Somebody that i used to know, We are young, and so on. So in my opinion the debate has more to do with the fact that he is an american idol winner who found success in other formats before being played in alternative, because the sound totally suits the format

How high did this go on AC before the Xmas switch? Can we expect a big increase in AI in about two weeks?

This song has been on the chart forever. I am glad to because I hope songs like this come to pop radio and stay. Such a different year in pop radio, that gives me hope that dance pop won't be here forever.

This song has been on the chart forever. I am glad to because I hope songs like this come to pop radio and stay. Such a different year in pop radio, that gives me hope that dance pop won't be here forever. I think the problem is not dance pop (in fact in the first part of 00's there were very few dance pop songs in the chart) the problem is the tendency of pop chart on having very similar songs on the chart, in the 00's were rap and hip hop (that seemed more a rythmic chart than a pop chart) and lately tons of dance pop songs. I like when the chart has a lot different songs, different styles and different lyrics (having a party is really nice, but i don't need 40 songs about having a party and putting your hands in the air). This year a lot of different (and very good) alternative songs had (and still have) succes in the pop chart, and i hope this tendecy continues. And it will be good if instead of crappy hip hop songs about b**s and money, the ones that actually cross to pop format will be the good ones with some different lyrics like Swimming pools, Same love or Thinking bout you. I was really good that this song found a second life, because it's really good, and lately american idol contestants are finding a lot of trouble to reach the charts (curiously foreign talent show contestants are not having that hurddles). Fortunately Gone, gone, gone is a really good follow up, so i hope Phillip could find some success next year (it's curious how sometimes the people who you don't like most on AI are the ones you like after the show end)

Home has already passed three million, has gift card week to go, and isn't done on radio yet. Passing Stronger and hitting 4 million is just a matter of time.

Yes, i think it should stay on the top 10 for a couple of weeks more at least. Try, the A team and Don't you worry child, probably will pass Home, but i think by then Home will be ahead of One more night, Let me love you and Die young. And he is doing great on itunes. I think the label will push Gone, gone, gone on january, but Home has its run done so it's all good

This has dropped to #11 behind "Try" on the CHR/Pop Building chart, so this is in serious danger of going recurrent. Too bad because it'll surely get a positive bullet after the holiday freeze.

Probably after the end year charts ended it will recover a bit, i think Maroon 5, Neyo and Kesha will drop faster, and try and the A team are at not that near, specially because they are getting some weird updates. It will be a nail bitting weekend but i think it will survive at least for a couple of weeks more
