Well, that looks much nicer. GT is already showing 5 Top 40 adds and it looks like they are Cumulus stations so hopefully there will be more reported today. Does Cumulus add in blocks? As I understood it they do. Although maybe not as tightly controlled now as when WWFM was on the charts. One of the frustrations with WWFM is that the Cumulus block added only after the song had already peaked. If they had added sooner the song could have gone higher but they waited and by the time they added and started spinning other stations were decreasing so all they did was drag out the overall time on the chart. |

Now, they sometimes add in a big block, but more like 75% of the stations, which the remaining 25% to follow in subsequent weeks...sometimes its vice versa -- about a quarter of the stations add and the rest follow in subsequent weeks...sometimes, like last week/this week, they add about half one week and half the next week (Zedd and Sam Smith got a bunch of the panel last week, and are getting the other bunch of the panel this week)...and then some stations just add songs here and there that no one else on the panel adds.... |

great update today, makes me happy! the problem with adam's songs at radio has always been that it takes an eternity for the whole pop panel to come on board. thefore, by the time all stations have added the early adapter stations have spun the song to death and moved on. this was primarily the reason why "whataya want from me" missed out on a top ten peak at pop.
i don't get what radio is afraid of to play his music sooner in its run. this has been out since april.

Nice to see it's still chugging along :)
This should be able to reach the top 20 unless radio suddenly decides to drop the ball on this.

Let's hope these nice Pop updates continue. :) they are likely to continue for the rest of the week because they are the result of the majority of the cumulus pop stations starting to play the song this week...hoping the momentum continues over the next few weeks |

#69 on iTunes now Let's hope these nice Pop updates continue. :) they are likely to continue for the rest of the week because they are the result of the majority of the cumulus pop stations starting to play the song this week...hoping the momentum continues over the next few weeks The third batch of the Cumulus stations, that includes stations like KRBE, is still not playing Ghost Town and will hopefully start early next week. We'll find out how many Cumulus stations already added and how many are left when we see their adds this week. If enough are left, they could bring another week of good updates. |

Krbe is already on the starters list. Hasn't played a lot but starterd playing. There is a whole group of cumulus stations that are playing that never showed up as starters but are playing the song. But there is plenty of room for growth next week |

It's in the Hot tracks section on the main music page but not on Pop interestingly enough.

#58 on US iTunes right now
I’m ridiculously happy about the sales & AI increase! I think this song is incredible, and Adam is crazy talented, I think he really deserves to be successful!

Right now it seems a clear posibility that this ends being a sizable hit, which could do wonders for future releases (a month ago that posibility looked way more remote or even impossible, sometimes labels and artist should be patient with their songs)

#55 on iTunes! I don't know what is happening but I love it and hope it continues! It's at #48 at the moment. I assume that the bump arose from its inclusion in the the iTunes hot tracks list following the Apple campus performance - very nice in any case :) |
