This was already a hit on Triple A but could this be going for a second shot on Hot AC?
It has re-appeared in the Top 50 based on Sunday's final updates:
SUNDAY (9/6) 51 50 KINGS OF LEON Sex On Fire 118 118 - 0.834
MONDAY (9/7) 51 50 KINGS OF LEON Sex On Fire 121 117 4 0.878

A rerelease? hmm...probably stations are trying to play more KoL right now because Use Somebody has exploded.

On the one hand, I love this song. On the other hand, from what I've heard, Only by the Night is not devoid of quality material, so they could move onto a new single instead of re-sending this one, and I'd almost prefer they do at this point. I agree with The Realest Ninja that right now, because "Use Somebody" has exploded, HAC is probably just trying to get more KOL in rotation even though the format generally ignored this the first time around. However, if it gets so much play that it reaches a certain level of success, then I'd say, business-wise, re-sending this would be the intelligent option. I guess we'll have to wait and see how this plays out.

Yep, agree with Ninja and WotUNeed. It's basically flat in spins. "Notion" would probably make the teens at least, so I think that would be fine as the next single.

On a related development, this just re-entered Top 10 in the UK Singles Chart, almost a year after its debut there. This has been used as an audition piece in X Factor.

The Steve Winwood influence on this track is unmistakable.

This should be pretty big I think.
I do not agree with Notion being a pop or HOTac release.
