Is this real life ? So happy for KC and her fans. Time for an ITunes banner and/or discount ?

I am so happy this is getting this reaction. Tied with Sober as my favorite Kelly song.

Great to see the song get such a huge boost!!!! I hope they send it to Pop radio and it manages to become a moderate sized hit at least!

20M views on Facebook now.
The album is #5 #3 on iTunes and Heartbeat Song is rising super fast too - it's #70 #68 now.
Also, the horrible single version is about to crack the overall Top 100 chart, too.

I have been streaming the song instead of playing my purchased copy. Doing whatever I can to add points to its total.

#3!?! Is this real life!?!
Kelly showing that pure talent and emotion can strike a chord with people. No other Idol could pull this off!

The only miss here is that I wish her team had a piano version ready to send out and push hard with a banner on iTunes. Could have given her a shot at a Grammy nomination next year but that was a long shot anyway and they couldn't have predicted this kind of outcome.

I don't particularly care for the album version. The arrangement on Idol is much better.

Stupid question but Facebook views don't count for Billboard right? I'm starting to think she could get a top 10 out of this (would just be gravy, I'm satisfied that the song's getting exposure at all). Someone can obviously correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Facebook video views do count? If I recall, there was a video of Iggy Azalea's 'Trouble' that went viral on Facebook and it helped that song on the Hot 100 that week. If FB views count and the performance pulls in huge numbers, then I hope sales/streaming hold up to get PBP into the top 10. IDK if it's too late for that to happen on the next chart coming, but if it held up through the next week then I'd keep my fingers crossed it has a shot. Of course, in a perfect world the streaming figures would blow up to an extent that even with streaming being weighed less on the Hot 100 now, it would be impossible to prevent Kelly from going #1.

I don't particularly care for the album version. The arrangement on Idol is much better. No ballad version. The radio edit is even pop-ier. They should release a surprise piano version but I doubt they will have time to do that with her being about to pop.

^ They don't strictly have to get her to re-sing a piano version, acoustic versions using the original studio cuts have been done before. Obviously it would seem a little cheap but given the circumstances I'm sure Kelly could be forgiven for not re-taking the vocals.

And I don't know how long Piece By Piece will stay at #1. ZAYN released a new single today and it will probably fly up there.

This is like full circle for her. She was on top when Idol debuted and now on its last season she's on top again. She deserves it!

I don't care if they have to release a board recording from the tour. Get this version out there. It should have been done during the tour, and not that Catch My Breath wannabe radio mix.

Kelly expanding her lead! Maybe that #1 spot won't slip so quickly after all!
And the radio remix is at #100 so that adds to the lead a little.

What. WHAT. Only Kelly could use a dying platform like Idol and make it relevant again.
Im glad -something- from pxp is finally clicking with the public. Better late than never!

If her team doesn't act on this with a radio mix of some sort that'll be probably the most disappointing thing to happen in a long time. There's sooooooo much potential here. Even the regular studio version would work better than the sh!tty remix they gave it.
This could literally resurrect the entire album era.

I agree. The radio remix doesn't work. They could probably do a radio edit of the album version - it's 4:18... not really that necessary to edit it that much, if at all. Recut the video with the album version, too! Or make a new video altogether.
