Going for adds on January 31. The band had a top 20 hit with "She Is Love" back in 2009, followed by "Under Control", which hit the top 30.

So, I guess this was a free download a few months ago, and I found a link to it and had a listen. It's actually really nice. It's almost like a mix of Rob Thomas's solo material with a horn section and choir sort of like what the Dave Matthews Band have going on. I doubt it'll make a huge splash given how pop the format is going, which is a shame.

22 21 PARACHUTE Something To Believe... 1179 1071 108 3.878
This song hasn't seemed to get much attention, but it's just outside the Top 20 with a solid bullet. I really like it. I bought the mp3 on Amazon a week or so ago. :)

I'm really enjoying this track also. If it weren't for all the jazzy/orchestral moments in this song, I think it could be a decent hit on alternative.

Our Hot AC and our AAA are both all over it - if this is big, they need to re-release She Is Love so it can get to #1! (Here and on pop)
Never really understood how the Script broke through on pop so easily, and these guys still haven't...

I'm digging this song too - and who knows, maybe it will catch on at pop too, but they'll have to team up with my favorite artist, "Featuring".

To answer Atlantaboy's likely rhetorical quesiton, I think that the reason why the Script broke through to pop so easily was because of how catchy "Breakeven" was. Had they released another song to pop first, they likely wouldn't have as much success.
I do wish that "She Is Love" would have done so much better. I loved that song.

Love this song. I love how it starts simple and more and more keeps rolling out. Really catchy and vibrant!

This is a good song and I also LOVE their song 'You And Me'. It's one of my favorites right now.

Yeah from the videos I saw on YouTube this looks like it's gonna be a great CD - You And Me (Against The World) has gotta be the next single I still think The Mess I Made is epic (can't believe it was never released, even to AAA)

"IF" this is the song that I heard the other day, I'll vote for really liking this song as well. I know I've seen the name of this new band on Pulse before but I personally have no idea who this band is.

19 17 PARACHUTE Something To Believe... Mercury/IDJMG 2010 1421 1303 118 So glad this is moving up; I really love it now. It's #1 on my personal chart for a second week. (On a side note, if you're interested in their new album but haven't picked it up yet, Best Buy has it on sale for $5.99 this week. Totally worth it! tinyurl.com/42obty7)
