Jumped up a few (I assume this has to do with some getting sent to reccurrents and because of that Mike Posner song dropping)
35 33 GOO GOO DOLLS Notbroken 409 390 19 1.081
Anyway, here's the Kimmel performance from last night:
They also did As I Am during the credits (it got cut off right before the first chorus). I'm told they did Slide, Better Days and Broadway off-screen.

Hoping this picks up some more now that the holiday songs are over. Would be nice if a few more stations added this song. Back to the requesting!!

Interestingly enough, it was one of the few to maintain positive spin increases all throughout the holiday and it's climbing increase-wise at the moment. The adds date is creeping up so you'll probably get your wish! :)

Definitely picking up steam at the moment. One of the biggest updates from bands in the lower portion of the chart and it's been reported that it's got 8 adds this week. Shouldn't be long before they overtake Hedley for No. 28. Happy to be seeing this after enduring stupid football and endless commercials just to see them play the Orange Bowl yesterday (that and idiotic Twitter comments, just ugh!).

I really liked the concept of the video. Quite refreshing and different. Unfortunately, I can't say that about the song. It's a nice song but that's about it. The song is just so predictable for the GGDs right now. Obviously, that's where they are with their sound and they are comfortable with it but I think they should have changed something up somehow. I guess the bottom line for me is that I'm bored with their sound. My guess is that their fanbase will enjoy it and that's probably all that matters to them at this stage in their careers.

Hey Marv, did the newsletter you were mentioning weeks ago hold up with that adds date last week or has something changed? I still hadn't seen anything on Mediabase for this whatsoever at any point. Either way, adds have been pretty dismal lately so I'm not sure if it's because they hadn't kept the date or because of the fact they'd released it so far ahead.

They definitely played this at the halftime show of some NFL game (last week I think - maybe two weeks ago?)

The Orange Bowl on January 3rd is probably what you're thinking of. I couldn't help but laugh at all the stuff the Bowl tacked on to their performance. Especially the fire. It was so weird considering I've seen them live and they usually go really barebones for the stage set up.

It's listing 44 stations on the Mediabase, so it's like 1 or 2 adds since I last checked. Hm. Weird.

Ugh. Taylor and Pink leapfrogged it and Avril will soon. yeah that sucks :(, but im hoping this is a slow but steady grower. it sounds good on the radio, the video is nice, the weather is cold out, i myself love goo ballads in winter better than summer. but ultimately i hope it goes top 15, though i thought this was a no brain top 10 but hot ac is little more competitive and now britney is on the format, so who knows, interesting :) maybe it'll inspire the bands that think they can just get hit after hit on hot ac to up the step up theyre skills.

I don't get it. It's been steadily increasing in audience but the spin increases compared to last week are drying up. Now it's only +18? What the hell!

I also noticed them getting passed over and over by others but slowly gaining. Not sure why the spins increased so much then decreased the next week. I'm still trying to work on this song and keep it going. I wish I knew every station that is playing it on the chart panels so I can work on any that I don't know of yet on my list.

I think it looks like it had large gains was because it held steady throughout the holiday season and when things got back to normal all across the board, it really started to pick up alongside everything else. I mean, it's glad that it isn't decreasing but this is strange. There is still nothing about a concrete adds date either. I can't tell if one passed or what's their deal if it hasn't.

Though positive increases, these updates are getting embarrassing with things jumping over it. Something is telling me that there still hasn't been an adds date. Mediabase has them at 48 stations and every single song above them has at least 10 more on them except for Ke$ha. Ugh. This is stupid. Hope that the Pro bowl spot does more than just serve as ammunition to mock how old they are. >:(

This is dead - they already had a song about coming home, and I don't think stations want a second one - honestly, I don't think anyone could get away with that (two songs in a row with the same hook) - not even GaGa or Katy Perry
I think it's gotten to a point where stations get a much better response just playing older Goo Goo Dolls songs from the 90s an early 2000s

As much as I wish I could say otherwise, it probably is. Someone one on of the fan boards was saying that their usual radio station wouldn't add it because it wasn't getting the numbers or something to that effect. It's rather strange because I thought this one would have outperformed Home easily. It boggles the mind that it's struggling like this so miserably. Then again, releasing it to radio before the holidays probably shot them in the foot. Oh well, short of some miracle, it'll teach WBR to actually look into the goddamn reason something was selling more units comparatively rather than to just pick it for that reason. Ugh. The sad part is that I can almost guarantee they'll pick As I Am as a fail-safe third single if they choose to try another one. /rant

Only +3 and the audience is dwindling though it hasn't lost a station. ....Not looking good at all. So unless if the VH1 top 20 Cancun flight mile high spot and the pre-game pro bowl does something, this is dead. Such a disappointment.

Like I posted earlier there really is nothing wrong with this song it's just been done so many times before by the GGDs. Their sound just really became stagnant as far as I'm concerned. It's not all that interesting or exciting but to the long-time die-hard fans. I'm a big MB20 fan and I hope they are able to come up with something different on the album they are working on or they might fall into the same cycle that the GGDs find themselves in. Maybe they should go out and hire some songwriting professionals to help them write a hit like Train did with "Hey, Soul Sister". Pat came off as being pretty desperate for a hit according to a few small print articles I read about their "come back." I really don't like that song but you can't deny that it hit home with a lot of people (and with considerable help from that Samsung commercial). I hope MB20 can have some success with some great songs and maintain some credibility at the same time but it's all about the exposure and if you can't get that you aren't going to sell a lot of albums, songs, or concert tickets in this day and age so I guess I can't really blame Train for getting all they could out of "Hey, Soul Sister."
