I had the privledge a few months ago of seeing them perform a live acoustic set including this song at my local Best Buy... simply out, this one has SMASH written all over it!
As for airplay, "First Time" is still doing very well, so it's going to be a while before they start aggresively start going for adds...

How is this song doing? My station hasn't added this yet... Wait about a month and a half I think and it'll be all over your radio Lifehouse is one of those bands that needs one single to completely die down before they can start promoting another one (IMO the sound is too similar to have two singles out at once, even if one song is faster and the other is slower)

The record is tanking. Nothing can save this B grade band.

So you signed up here just to make fun of Lifehouse? That's not cool.

The record is tanking. Nothing can save this B grade band. ??? They have TWO of the Top 10 biggest HAC airplay hits (and combined CHR/HAC airplay hits) of the 2000s..."First Time" is already #1 on Hot AC audience impressions, and hit #16 on a CHR chart skewed by 30 rhythmic stations on the CHR panel -"Broken" hasn't even gone for adds yet, and I'm sure it'll be huge

This song will go Top 5, likely #1, EASILY on Hot AC, and I could seriously see this outpeaking the other two from this album on CHR\Pop with a good video and hot, iTunes, action. This is picking up way quicker than the other two.
I really think that it will be between this and OAR for #1 sometime in October.

That OAR song is one of my favorites right now. It's pretty catchy!

This should break top 30 by the end of the week, it has a healthy bullet of +135 on only 30 stations. I definitely believe their recurrents are limiting the ability of this song to take off, but it is a matter of time.

Yeah...can't imagine a station havin both Whatever It Takes and Broken both in significant rotation at the same time (except for KUDD/Salt Lake City I guess which did it months ago - but their ratings were somewhere around 1.9 I think)... Thinkin most stations will wait till WIT completely dies down before even touching Broken...I'm guessin that the 30 stations that're already playin the new single are prob Modern ACs where WIT has already run its course Don't think havin First Time in recurrent will be a prob. though IMO (cause it's such a different type of song)

I don't really care for the new radio version, it's alright but I'd rather hear the album version.

i dont like it as much as the album version either. but i still like it and think it will do better than the album version would do. i dont like the way it jumps into the lyrics right away, amongst other things.

That radio version isn't the butchering I was expecting, but I don't like it as much as the album version. It makes the song more "fresh" for me though.

Probably because there is a little less to it, it's a bit more simple and usually I tend to like radio remixes more. It could end up being like OneRepublic's "Apologize" and how one week I'd only like and listen to the original version and the next week I would only want to hear the remix.

So far I like the radio version more just because I've heard the album version so many times already. It's just fresh and new for me.

Yeah just heard the radio edit and thinkin it's (eventually) gonna be really big, at least on HAC...it's gotta have a slow climb cause of WIT, but IMO it could end up bein a bigger HAC hit - still not sure about CHR, thinkin it might peak in the 40s there cause it's too similar to WIT...hope I'm wrong though about CHR lol

Their chart movement is always slow for some reason.

Why is it that they hardly ever get a bullet of 200+ here? They always linger around forever though so it's obvious that they're successful on Hot AC.

I like this so much more than "Whatever it Takes" but it'll be pretty hard to top the #3 peak.

IMO it's def. cause HAC stations really don't like playin two songs by the same artist at the same time, plus they leave the previous single in rotation until it's completely burned out (which in the case of Lifehouse songs takes a long time lol) This is def. gonna be a huge HAC hit in another month or so IMO

I haven't heard the new radio version, but I'm fine with that because I adore the original. This should be an easy top 5 for Lifehouse and I'm hoping for #1. I personally think that this and "First Time" are their two best singles to date.

^IMO new radio version makes it twice as good a song (not sure why, guess cause they get right into it instead of takin forever to build up to the hook)
They def. could've done to same thing to "Everything" (off their first CD) and IMO it would've at least been a Hot AC hit seein as how it's been used in so many TV dramas, movies, etc.
Still thinkin they could do the same thing to "Storm" - just might take a little more creativity lol

I'm super glad this is getting played and hopefully it will go to #1!!! This song, "Storm", "Bridges", and "First Time" are my favourites off of the album.
