This is a great song I don't know why it has low sales, if it had high sales it would be in the 8-5 area.

I see Calvin Harris or Zedd songs go top 10 on CHR but lag in sales often... ("I Need Your Love", "Blame", "Outside", "Stay the Night", "I Want You to Know" etc.)

But most people do like this song so I don't know why it's in the top 20 in AirPlay but like 90 on ITunes. And EDM is becoming more popular that's something too think about.

Maybe EDM songs are liked enough by people for radio stations to play them a lot, but not necessarily to the point where people buy them? These types of songs are safe choices for radio because it's catchy and that could be what makes radio play EDM songs a lot. EDM is getting more popular but the EDM songs that pop radio plays are fairly similar to one another (except for stuff like "Lean On" or "Where Are U Now", both of which happen to be performing very well for EDM songs) if you look at it on a large scale, in this case the whole EDM genre. So that could be factoring into why those songs aren't necessarily performing well on the sales front. People who listen to pop radio may not think these types of songs are special enough for them to pay money and download, especially in comparison to other songs that are big on pop radio.

For the most part, EDM artists are faceless, and since they use a rotating cast of vocalists, they don't have a solid "identity." Even those with solid track records like Calvin Harris can struggle if the song is weaker/not catchy enough for Pop. They literally live on a song-by-song basis. Zedd and David Guetta are also in Pop's good graces, and still have uneven track records on the format.

I'm expecting this to drop quick when it peaks. It's currently discounted on iTunes and is still only at #74. "Should've Been Us" was selling around the same as this, but with the discount that's up to #45. I guess this just isn't really clicking with people.

In its 11th week on the Hot 100, this vaults 70-66. :)
Hoping this still has a chance to hit top 50 after it drops due to the iTunes discount. :(

In its 12th week on the Hot 100, this goes up 2 spots to a new peak of #64.

I heard this for the first time yesterday at the store and I was surprised to learn that this was a Zedd track. I like it. The vocals really make this.
