What's the point of her doing a catchy mainstream friendly song if they don't even want to send it for adds?

Tbh she should have gone the Mandy Moore route and shifted to a more AC friendly sound

Tbh she should have gone the Mandy Moore route and shifted to a more AC friendly sound I'm just a bit confused about your concern or interest in Hilary and this song at all. I mean the CTS thread was riddled with negative comments from you: Then they probably should have released it before summer was, you know, over. It's a little too Lizzie Maguire for my taste. Was hoping for a little more mature sound this go round. Like Dignity but not s**tty She sounds like Paris on stars are blind and looks like Natasha Beddingfield. I could see this maybe doing something on AC but not pop I sent a link to the video to a friend who replied back "It's like a poor man's version of Pocket Full of Sunshine" The music video has almost 13kk views on VEVO. I think that Chasing The Sun will be debuted in the Top 50 of Billboard helping with streams. Seriously though, I highly doubt it even debuts. Ever. Going the J.Lo route I see... The only place CTS would sound modern is on the soundtrack to the hot new Lizzie Maguire reboot movie. Otherwise it belongs on the same album as So Yesterday. And the majority of the comments from you in this thread either have backhanded compliments or just pure pessimism as well. What gives?

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. Interesting to know that the song is being sent to radio Tuesday, and she has interview with Jojo Wright next week on KISS. So I wonder if more radio interviews will follow.

Yeah this is way too good not to be a hit. I want this to at least go top 10 on pop and top 20 Hot100.

Still hoping this can become a bigger smash than "With Love"! That's her highest charting Hot 100 hit right?
I wonder why the label never released the dance version of "Chasing the Sun"? Perhaps this'll get the remix treatment first?

Quite unfortunate she's not going to the VMAS not even an appearance.

I could see this having a run similar to "Disaster" by JoJo.

Why are people suddenly surprised that radio isn't eating her comeback up? She was never that successful musically to begin with.

With Love and Fly both peaked at #27 right? I thought it has peaked in the upper 20s, but apparently its peak was #28. Still, if this made it to #28, I'd be happy. Also, "Disaster" had better longevity than "With Love" and "Fly." 17 weeks inside the top 50 versus 12 for "Love" and 9 for "Fly."

Pretty sure this is not a comparison thread between the three songs, I simply asked a question about the chart peak.

14 isn't great, however it's not terrible either. Hopefully these stations can push it hard enough to get it into the top 60 at least (I'm not looking at the chart currently, but I feel like it's feasible)

14 adds is ok not great but not a disaster either. I guess this isn't horrible but just because it's been added doesn't mean it's definitely been played right. Aren't there two different kind of adds?

Why are people suddenly surprised that radio isn't eating her comeback up? She was never that successful musically to begin with. "Musically" she's been a decent success. She's sold nearly 10 million albums in the USA. Something the girl in your avatar will probably never achieve. Radio-wise, though, she hasn't been successful.

Aren't there two different kind of adds? There are two different types of adds: auto-adds and normal adds. Normal adds are when the station reports themselves that they have added the song to their playlist and from there on out, it will be played starting sometime in that week. Auto-adds are stations that never reported it as being added, but are playing it a certain number of times that it will be reported as an add if it hasn't been already. There's also times when corporations force all of their stations to add a song by a certain time. This usually happens with Clear Channel or Cumulus.
