From Billboard: Hozier's "Take Me to Church" reaches a new Hot 100 peak, hiking 8-6. It tops the subscription services-based On-Demand Songs chart for a second week (3.4 million, up 11 percent) and leads Hot Rock Songs for a fifth week. New peak of #6 in the US!

I kind of was too but I'm glad it didn't because it's no secret that I really dislike the song. Honestly that alternative station in Tampa/Orlando is really hurting the format right now, it has way too much power in dictating what goes to #1, so I'm happy Foo Fighters, who can't get into their 125-spin rotation (they only get like 65) got to #1 against the wishes of that station.

Both were at around 89 spins last time I checked, between the 120 heavy range and the 65 spin mid range and going in opposite directions. I think that's the reason Stolen Dance finally fell. It is annoying that that station controls which song gets #1 though, just because it rotates songs like a Pop station.

And it keeps going!

I think he seems destined to have a lower peak at pop than on billboard like Say Something or Let her go.
A number 3 on the hot 100 is pretty impressive, he became the first solo male to go top 5 since Sam Smith's Stay with me dropped out of the top 5 almost three months ago

Z100 played a Mike D remix of this song during their 9 @ 9 Countdown tonight. They're playing a remix where I live as well, and apparently they've played it in Chicago too. It's so irritating when pop radio ruins a perfect song like this with a horrendous remix. At least unlike the travesty that was Lana Del Rey's "Summertime Sadness" remix, the only version of "Take Me to Church" that people can actually purchase is the original version.

This song sounds so good on the radio. At first I thought it would sound out of place but somehow it fits perfectly. Reminds me a bit of the Gotye success. Hopefully it will reach the same heights.

So I heard this on Z100 three times this weekend...each time with a weird dance beat added to it. Is that how it's being played on all pop stations?
If so...is the world FN kidding? Most egregious use of a dance beat since pop turned Taylor Swift's "Teardrops on My Guitar" into "Teardrops on my Drum Machine."
(Hopefully it's just Z100 being weird and I can calm down)

Eh, depends on the station. My city has two CHR stations, I know one of them plays the boring Mike D remix, and it wouldn't surprise me if the other one did, considering how they've played remixed versions of other songs like "Somebody That I Used To Know" and "What I Wouldn't Do", although they also have played many Alt crossovers in their original form, so it could go either way.

Kiss Chicago has been playing a s**tty dance mix. Ugh. Eww. So far, I've heard that remix only on mix shows on one station. The original is still going on 2 of 3 CHRs otherwise. However, the third station is totally the one that would regularly play said remix once it picks it up. The others usually follow suit so I guess we'll see. As long as the damn song is getting played and keep climbing I guess I'm ok.

I actually thought the Mike D remix, half-assed though it was, worked surprisingly well for the Gotye song. This Hozier mix is shamefully bad and I hope I never hear it on any Atlanta stations. It's not going to convert anyone who dislikes the original and it'll piss off the people who do like it, so I'm not sure what programmers are thinking by playing it.
