Guess they decided to switch singles. This is going for Hot AC adds on March 28.

What happened to "1983"...Did it chart on any format? It charted on Alternative and did well for a pure pop song, i'm not sure if it hit top 10 at alt. but i remember seeing it close. "1983" is insanely catchy and will definatly be single #3 to mainstream pop as it tested well, but i think the label ultimately wanted something a little less different tempo wise than "Animal". I really think IMO could be wrong that Neon Trees have what it takes to be a core HOT AC band. I'm hoping "Your Surrender" & "1983" will both follow in "Animal" 's footsteps! :)

The label waited too long to release a follow-up to "Animal" at Pop...momentum has been lost.

I don't understand why they waited so long. Neon Trees' album is great. They should easily be moving up the chart with another single by now. I like this one though and hope it does well.

It may be too late. And "1983" reached #13 on alternative I think.

Animal was removed from the Hot AC chart when it dropped below #10 though...my guess is it's still in the Top 20 - so I don't think their label waited too long (any more than Lifehouse or Daughtry waits to follow-up their songs) I'm thinking this could do pretty well (at least Top 20 I think), and I definitely don't think they've lost momentum on HAC yet

I like this--1983 burned fast for me because of how similar it sounds to Animal. This is a nice departure.
