Hey sorry if there's already a thread for this, but I can't find it anywhere...this is barreling up the HAC chart (with a new more acoustic mix to help it along)
Still don't think it's gonna be anywhere near as big as the previous lead singles, but HAC def. needs new material right now

So far it's been on fire. Is it just me or does this have a weird Foo Fighters sound to it?

Exactly. I'm glad I'm not the only that hears it. Sometimes I make random connections that only I hear apparently.

Not a bad song but then again pretty typical generic rock. Kind of sounds like Brad Arnold trying to be Chris Daughtry. Funny how not much recent success (3DD's last album) and lot's of success (Daughtry) can turn things around.
The video is also very typically bland. Not terrible but totally forgettable 10 minutes after you watched it.
I look for this album to do better than their last (even with the terrible music sales). I think they will be more pop play than the last time out. This song was obviously written to GET that pop play.

This song is already better for me than even "Let Me Go." It is very catchy and edgier. I like it alot, and I anticipate that this will be a good-sized top 10 hit for them on HAC and even pop radio. Sure, it won't be like Kryptonite or When I'm Gone, but a strong single nonetheless.

^Only thing is it's not gettin anywhere near as strong as start as Let Me Go did (on CHR or HAC), so kinda worried...thinkin it'll have plenty of longevity though, since there's really not much else like it out there right now

It's getting a way better start on both formats than "Let Me Go" did and it's also gone top 10 on Alternative something "Let Me Go" didn't come close to.

I think this is another great song by them. Generic, bland, I hear these terms a lot in reference to 3DD, Nickelback, etc, and yet obviously they connect with people or they wouldn't have so many hits. It's not exactly commonplace these days for the songs at the top of the rock charts to also be at the top of the Pop and HotAC charts.

[ It's currently stalling at #26 on CHR, with a +126 bullet...not thinkin it's racing up to #2 like Let Me Go did Let Me Go entered the top 50 on Pop on 1/14/05 and peaked at #2 on 5/20/05. That's almost 16 weeks to reach its peak. That's "racing up to #2"???? And top that with Let Me Go being one of the weakest #2s spinwise (I believe it was in the low 7000s), I wouldn't be using Let Me Go as some sort of benchmark like you are.

It's already in its 12th week on CHR, and only at #14 with a bullet around +200...At this point Let Me Go was closin in on the Top 5 CHR...used Let Me Go as a benchmark cause that was their leadoff single from their last CD...was sayin I was kinda disappointed that this one wasn't as CHR-oriented, although it's kickin butt on Hot AC (and on a lot of Mass Appeal CHRs, which are spinnin it over 80 times a week)...it's also doin really well on the Rock formats

All 3 songs peaked at #3 on Hot AC. Wow lol...just seems like comparin Hot AC stats (even now vs. 5 years ago) is weird cause the stations evolve so quickly/change musical direction etc. Just can't believe that this song is possibly a bigger hit than Kryptonite, even on Hot AC...maybe there was more chart competition back then, etc...and pretty sure When I'm Gone was close to bein the #1 CHR hit of the year back in '03 I think, so weird IMO that this is outpeakin those songs the on HAC chart

As far as Kryptonite, that song was a "surprise" really for HAC radio. It was quite hard for the format which had core artists at the time like matchbox twenty, Barenaked Ladies, Sting, and the Goo Goo Dolls. That song was held at #3 and then slipped quickly to #4 and was held back by With Arms Wide Open, Pinch Me, and If You're Gone. When I'm Gone was held back by Unwell and Drift Away. Let Me Go had You & Me and Lonely No More blocking its path to the top. And When I'm Gone was the #1 pop song of 2003.

Yeah seems kinda weird that HACs back then played Pinch Me more than Kryptonite...if it were released today I'm guessin Kryptonite would be a sure #1 at HAC (seein as how It's Not My Time is up to #2)

By 2 spins this manages to rise to #1 on Billboard/R&R. Very rarely does a song spend a single week at #1 on Hot AC, but it looks like Coldplay will move into position next week, putting 3DD into a relatively elite circle.
Anyway, way to go 3 Doors Down! Nice #1!

"It's Not My Time" appears to be the 1st #1 Hot AC hit in several years that isn't on the regular AC chart - at least as of yet. Practically all of the songs that reach #1 at Hot AC can be found somewhere on the top 30 or 40 of the AC chart - but not this one.
This could still be a minor AC hit later on - judging by the performance of "Away from the Sun" and "Let Me Go". Those were high-performing Hot AC hits by 3 Doors Down that eventually became low-charting AC hits.

But if a song like "Savin' Me" can reach the AC chart, I don't see why this can't.

On Billboard, "Apologize" spent 6 weeks at #1 (this was due to Billboard counting the One Republic and One Republic/Timbaland versions together). I think that "Hey There Delilah", which also was a single-weeker on Mediabase, pulled off a second week on Billboard, and that "Daughters" is indeed the last single-weeker on BB.

It would help if I read the thread closer. My stats were for Mediabase, not BB/new R&R. Sorry about that.
