I would assume the version without New Boyz is the one sent to HAC? I could see it making Top 20 at the very least, following Tonight Tonight.

What possesses everyone into thinking that there must be a rap in the bridge of every pop song these days??? We don't need this in every song, and there are too many Hot AC stations playing these pop versions of songs each day. Even songs geared toward CHR stations don't need to have a rap in every song! |

Obviously I prefer the nonrap version, but having said that, this isn't much of a departure from "Tonight, Tonight". I could see it peaking at about 25 HAC.

I saw them open for The Script about a month ago. The lead singer was wearing a Nirvana shirt, and I wondered how much Kurt was spinning in his grave.
This is 12 year-old rock at its finest. Catchy for some, annoying for others. People really dug it when they played it live.

Catchy for some, annoying for others. People really dug it when they played it live. I also saw them open for The Script and I actually thought they were pretty good. Better than I expected. Their worst problem IMO is that they took the success of Tonight Tonight and decided to try and recreate it with this song and so many others on their new album. It's catchy but I'd like to see them do something different too. Really, "Bleed" is one of their best songs, even though it flopped on CHR before TT. |
