Mindless hard-rock afficionados will despise this song, but those with sensitivity who appreciates different sounding music with intriguing lyrics will appreciate this song.

I saw them in concert last week, and when they sing it, the crowd seem to like it very much. That's surprise me since it a new song for them. It seem that the hard-core fan of Garbage will only like the song on the radio, and they will request it a lot. But the average people will not care for the song.
So for my first post (and my first prediction), i will say # 24.

I'm watching them do a concert on Fuse as I type this. Shirley sounds great. I have to say though, they're performing their old stuff too and when they performed "BLM" it just seemed weak in comparison but "SINTE" fits right in.
If Fuse airs this a lot it should help the album :)

The album had a very strong 3rd week and Comp'd's multiple airings should only help sales.
Letterman next Thursday as well...and BLM impacting.

AWESOME video, just watched it. Shirely looks beautiful again and the whole idea is very twisted.

It seems to be doing very well so far. I take it the band are expecting this to do well also in Hot A/C and Pop.

Really like both the video and the song. WDYLM is very catchy but this one is much deeper and interesting. It's very alternative though, I doubt it could have life beside Alternative. Hopefully it will at least do something!

Is it just my imagination or does it now show 34 stations instead of 36? wtf? I'm sure 2 stations wouldn't just drop it overnight and this early...it doesn't even impact until today. Hmm...maybe Mediabase just made a mistake before.
Anyway...#56 today. It only gained 15 spins though yesterday. I'm sure that it will show significant gains on tomorrow's or Thursday's charts, when it officially starts to impact.

I just got it! From the first time I heard this song, I knew it reminded me of another Garbage song, but I couldn't figure it out. Now I can! It's "Stupid Girl"!! There's a guitar in BLM that's very similar to the one in SG.
Am I the only one?
(BTW, I love Stupid Girl!)

Just saw the video on FUSE. Looks fabulous. Shirley looks so gorgeous through it all and I love the plot!

#45 and +119
it could be #41 tomorrow if it gets another 20 or so gains in spins
I think this will continue to grow slowly but surely, still think it could go Top 20 or higher and it's doing great at Triple A. They did a great job on Letterman (and I was there).

it's debuts at #39 on Billboard this week
it's also #39 on Mediabase today with it's strongest bullet +134 to date it's gaining at a steady pace in spins, but it needs more stations to add it to keep growing past the Top 30
