48 44 THEORY OF A DEADMAN Not Meant To Be 203 165 38 0.670
The third single from "Scars & Souvenirs" has been hovering around the bottom of the chart for about a week now. It looked like this would be a Double third single with "Hate My Life" on rock (no they're not emo lol), but that has been removed from the adds list. So this is the followup to their Active Rock and Billboard Mainstream Rock #1 hit, "Bad Girlfriend." I'll bet if they wanna continue the HAC route they'll release "By the Way" next, which features Chris Daughtry on backup vocals.

Wow. This band has managed to stick around a bit despite the heavy early criticism of being a Nickelback clone. I only have the first album which I like a lot. I'm not sure I want to see them gravitate towards HotAC unless they really have some superior material.

This is one of my top faves from the album (along with BTW and SH). It reminds a lot though of Hemmorrhage especially the intro.

Looks like this will become a breakout smash on Top 40 radio potentially soon as well.
This single has suddenly surged in weekly net spins, and has the strongest gain in airplay over any other single on the present chart.
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

Have you guys seen the video? It features Idol's 4th judge Kara DioGuardi (she's a co-writer for this song as well). LOL it would be pretty funny if they perform this on Idol (doubt it though).

Probably the video. It's definitely going to get more buzz with Kara in it.
I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet on AI.

Okay, RE my post above, this is superior material. I did not even recognize the band in the video, I was watching and digging the song and nearly fell out of my chair when it said "Theory of a Deadman". Great song for a band that just hangs on the fringes of the charts.

I've got to say I'm pretty impressed with how well this song is doing - especially for Hot AC and not to mention in the US. I'm thinking this must be their best song on the format to date.
Now I find this song miles better than "All Or Nothing" which so far has charted better on Hot AC in Canada.
And having Kara in their video certainly helped.

I think this has a pretty good shot of going #1 here. Nothing in the top ten is really giving it much competition.

4 4 THEORY OF A DEADMAN Not Meant To Be 2993 2949 44 12.318
Sadly #4 might be its peak. I can see "Her Diamonds" overtaking this one within the next couple of updates. "You Found Me" (at #3) is still far ahead, with minimal spin loss.

All things considered, this single still did far better than I thought it would. I can't think of any other singles from them that did this well on Hot AC in the U.S.
So even with a #4 peak, it's still an amazing accomplishment.

I jinxed myself. Looks like this can peak inside the Top 3 after all, with "Her Diamonds" slowing down and "You Found Me" hastening its fall. :)
