I fear Taylor's new single is going to totally bury any chance this has of being a radio success simply because Hilary's never had a strong radio presence to begin with.

Yup, Taylor has officially become a pop artist, which means that Hilary can now take over as the new Queen of Country!

Well then it's not Taylor's fault haha. Radio just has never been interested in Hilary Duff before, and I dont see any reason why they would suddenly start now just because she's singing about joining the mile high club.

I was reading through this page and saw the comparisons of this song to Taylor Swift, and I couldn`t agree more...I went through my teenage years with Hilary Duff, so would be ecstatic if she could have another hit (I still listen to With Love and Play With Fire frequently)

Is there an adds date yet? Yes it was today, waiting to see how many adds it got. Now it's been removed from FMQB 8/19 mainstream why? fmqb.com/article.asp?id=16691

RCA is dumb as fuck. They should pay whoever started this ALS Ice Bucket thing and have everyone play this during their video so as it went straight to #1 on the Hot 100 and then fell off the chart the next week. They could use that record to promote the album as the new Emancipation of Mimi. Now THAT would be a comeback. :'(

lol. welp.
For what it's worth, it's on this month's RadioInformer for HAC radio (they don't deliver to pop, though) - maybe they'll start with it there (though it only got one add there yesterday).
ETA: It was included on this week's HitDisc pop compilation, though.

RCA is pissing me off WTF!
I just got a response back from the Digital Marketing Director at RCA
"Hi Josh,
The single was blasted last Tuesday following the Adam Bomb premiere. Going for ads/impacting today/this week.
Best,
T"

Hmmm. Very disappointing. Maybe they don't want it to be overshadowed by all the VMA stuff coming up?

So her label has completely given up on "Chasing the Sun" and aren't doing a double singles plan?

Maybe it's the lack of hype around the song is why they pulled it, hopefully they are just waiting on her to do radio interviews/promo

I seriously don't understand the logic of pulling the adds date at the last minute, especially for a great song like this. And don't tell me Taylor's new song is the reason since the label had to have known about it when they initially gave this its add date.

And don't tell me Taylor's new song is the reason since the label had to have known about it when they initially gave this its add date. We didn't know Taylor's release date when this got an adds date, so how would the label know? They're not on the same label. It looks like they had the original adds date set, but once they heard Taylor was releasing the same day, the probably pulled it just in case "Shake It Off" had a similar sound to this. It doesn't, so now they're back on with this. That's the only thing I can come up with, other than maybe they wanted the lyric video to build up hype for the song before the adds date. Both are bad reasons to suddenly change a song's adds date, though.

Why did they push it back? She's not performing at the VMAs, is she?
Maybe the label was worried about it getting lost in the Tswift release frenzy?

I really hope she was able to secure a radio deal. I hate to say she may need it, but I think she does. I'm very glad we only have to wait 6 more days for the adds date.

I dont even think a radio deal will help her. I mean ZERO pre-impact date adds? I just don't think radio cares.

Her best shot to tell people that she is BACK is to perform at the VMA's but I'm pretty sure she isn't so neither radio nor people will care (or even know she is back)

Regardless of the VMAs, she's just gotta do some promo literally anywhere. Otherwise this definitely will get lost in the shuffle, which is disappointing given how good it is.
