It was the sure shot on Rick Dees this week. It debuted at #34 on AT40 this week.

The song entered the top 10 on the 9/26/06 chart. Wow!! That is a long time. Thanks for the info. So that's 9 months in the top 10. The only song that spent that much time in the top 10 that I didn't get sick of was "You and Me" by Lifehouse, and if "Over my Head" spent that much time in the top 10, count that too.

LOL I'm glad people are agreeing with me. It's a good song, but like everyone is saying, it's been overplayed. I think "Over My Head" was on longer but that song is so catchy and is an awesome song.

"How To Save A Life" got really whiny and annoying after a while, especially after Pop radio sent it to the top 5. There was no getting away from it.
It's going to be really close this week. They may not take out The Fray until early next week.

That's what so many people said about the follow-up ("Look After You") - "too whiny". Maybe it is, but it's a fresher-sounding song than "How to Save a Life", which is simply getting too tiresome to listen to. It should have gone to the recurrent list about 4 or 5 months ago.

This is a catchy song! I hope it will generate lots of radio play (and sales) for them. I've been hearing it on my local MIX station ... still waiting for my CHR station to pick it up.

Look at the top 100 for KMYI on yes.com and you'll see lol

I'm enjoying this single a lot more than I did "You & Me". I like that they're implementing a more upbeat flavor to their sound after a well-intended, yet very musically moody, self-titled era.
I don't think Jason Wade has ever sounded more confident and focused vocally in a single release than he does here. Though I really liked "Blind" from their previous era, as well as "Spin", "Breathing" and "Sick Cycle Carousel", he tended to sound overly earnest and tended to drown in pensiveness at times. Not this time around, where this is their most audible and accessible single to date.
I think this can very well become another enduring hit for the band; perhaps not as large as either "Hanging By A Moment" or "You & Me", but still hold respectable longer-term appeal. The single has just climbed into the Top 10 here, and it's already in the Top 50 at CHR/Pop, which is a very encouraging sign when you have a single in the process of moving up the chart at this format.
I'm confident this will become Lifehouse's third Top-5 hit here, and though I think it'll miss the Top 10 at CHR/Pop, I wouldn't be surprised to see it scrape the Top 20 as this is a very summery song, both musically and lyrically.
Sincerely, Noah Eaton

No real significant airplay for "First Time" on Mix 96.9 yet (Phoenix). That's another station which tends to be a little late on adding certain new songs. I remember they took a long time to add "You & Me" to their list in 2005.
I like this song, though. It reminds me a lot of "Spin", only more upbeat. It's even gaining in spins on some regular AC stations, which is a little surprising.

It was stuck at 10 for a while. That got on my nerves cause they had a good sized bullet but didn't budge.

Does anyone think this will ever reach #1? I hope it knocks "Home" out of the top spot cause I don't like that song.

I hope it reaches #1. But "Hey There, Delilah" is moving awfully fast. What do you think?
